Conceptual Foundations for Designing the Content of the Regional Component of the Educational Area “Art” (The Case of “Transbaikal Studies”)

Abstract

The article is devoted to the analysis of conceptual (scientific) and methodological strategies for designing the content of the regional component of the educational area “Art” on the example of Transbaikal Studies. A new educational sphere “Art” has been introduced into the educational programs of Russian schools. In a multinational state, the federal law “On Education in the Russian Federation” presupposes the implementation of the national-regional component in the lessons of the integrated course “Art”. This actualizes the need for a textbook on the art of Transbaikalia, which suggests a constructive reformatting of the definition of the content of the subject, which, in our opinion, should be preceded by an analysis of the conceptualization of scientific approaches to the selection of sections of the curriculum, subject and thematic components, educational technologies that develop the creative potential of the student. In modern education, the main subject areas of art are a fairly harmonious system of knowledge, value attitudes, artistic skills that ensure the full realization of the student’s creative potential. The relevance of the introduction of new subject areas is determined by the fundamental importance of integrating school education into contemporary art and culture.The widespread use of the figurative representation of knowledge in modern conditions (visual, iconic, pictoral), technical means of creating new imagery and the problems of simulating aesthetic worlds arising in this case, the peculiarities of the cognitive development of modern students (mosaicism, fragmentation, clip-like thinking) determine their perception of art. New sources of student motivation and ways of teaching students in a distance learning environment, current trends in technology, culture and art (D. Bachman-Medic, K. Schwab) have led to fundamental changes in the modern culture of education, the activation of additional resources for the cognitive development of students. Keywords: regional component, educational area “Art”, classical theory of art, design of the content of the subject area, principles of content selection, gaining epistemological agreement, consensus of subject specificity of the course
