Scientific and pedagogical schools promotion within the humanistic values development

Abstract

In terms of globalization Ukrainian education, reflecting the research achievements of pedagogical thought and practice has a strong potential towards intellectual, axiological and cultural, aesthetic, moral and ethical development of the person. Ethical and cultural values of education should be extrapolated in the European environment to promote multiculturalism, anthropocentrism, humanistic principles, as well as the culturological and Europe-oriented paradigm in the educational sphere of Ukraine. The leading trend in the development of Ukrainian and world pedagogical science is fundamentalisation, which is the basis of the «advance» education in the context of sustainable development of society. The primary principles of education in its interdisciplinary measurement were established through the activities of the university and academic centres where scientific schools were formed in retrospect. According to this, the elaboration of methodological, theoretical, and practice-oriented achievements of scientific schools in the pedagogical and educational environment occurs through the continuity of generations of scientists, the actualization of achievements of experienced scientists, and their combination with the innovations of young scientists. The synthesis of these two layers of science allows solving present issues that arise in modern educational science and practice. There is the need to globalize the experience of development of scientific schools in the modern education and educational environment of Ukraine, particularly in academic centres, that represents the development of educational science in the personalized dimension and confirms the crystallization of its fundamental principles and innovative nature of scientific research. We summarised the achievements of the leading academic institution of Ukraine – Ivan Ziaziun Institute of Pedagogical Education and Adult Education of the National Academy of Pedagogical Sciences of Ukraine – in the personalized context and outlined the prospects for the development of scientific schools of the Institute to meet modern challenges of reforming education and science. We described the trends in the development of scientific schools of the well-known Ukrainian scientists and educators (I. Ziaziun, S. Honcharenko, N. Hychkalo, L. Lukianova, L. Khomych), which were formed on the values of pedagogical mentoring, intellectual leadership, empathy, ethical and aesthetic philosophical guidelines.
