Abstract

The issue of cognitive motivation of students is one of the key issues in pedagogy and teaching methods. The actualization of this issue is currently connected with the problems of modernization of education in Kazakhstan. One of these problems is caused by the search for funds for the development of cognitive abilities of students. The solution of this problem can be facilitated by the use of materials of everyday history in teaching history. This article is devoted to the educational potential of the history of everyday life, the direction of historical research that appeared relatively recently, in the last quarter of the twentieth century, and explores the life world of ordinary people – participants in the historical process. The relevance of the study of the possibilities of using the potential of everyday history in the process of teaching historical disciplines for the development of cognitive motivation of students and their socialization is due to the fact that this issue has been little studied in domestic methodological works. According to the authors of the article, it is impossible to get an objective picture of the past without taking into account all the wealth of historical knowledge, including the history of everyday life. Familiarity with the everyday behavior of people of other historical eras, with their mentality and system of moral values will show students the commonality and continuity of universal culture. The formation of a value attitude to one's past, its emotional perception determines the effectiveness of training. The article analyzes the educational tasks of the history of everyday life, considers the possibility of using innovative methods for teaching it. The authors believe that the formation of students' knowledge on the history of everyday life will contribute to a more adequate perception of the historical process, easier and more productive assimilation of educational material, increase the cognitive motivation of students, stimulate their socialization in society.
