Abstract

In 2021, UNESCO released the report of the International Commission on Education Prospects entitled "Reimagining our futures together", which presents proposals for the formation of a new social contract on education and the development of dialogue and actions. The report identifies five directions, whose transformation can redefine and renew modern education. They are pedagogy, curricula, teaching methodology and methods, the structure and content of schools, as well as "wide educational opportunities provided throughout life and in various socio-cultural platforms". That is, the following five points need to be changed: the classroom system, curricula that are just a single subject program, teaching that is viewed as an individual activity, schools that also follow the same procedure and the organization of the education of certain groups of children isolated from the family and community. The article presents the purpose and results of the master's course "Pedagogical Anthropology" taught in all departments of ASPU, as well as some pedagogical technologies and methods that are used and contribute to the formation of the skills needed for reaching the above-mentioned objectives. We have also presented the results of the research work carried out by us with the aim of evaluating the effectiveness of the course in terms of the compliance of the used methods and results with the requirements of modern pedagogy. The presented article brings to the fore those interactive teaching methods that form independent and critical-analytical thinking, the ability to apply integrated knowledge, to predict the future, to set and design the right goals, to solve specific problems, as well as self-awareness, the skills of modeling, thinking together and developing dialogue. The methods presented within the "Pedagogical Anthropology" course, aimed at the formation of 21st century skills, can be useful and applicable during the teaching of other subjects.
