Abstract
The article reveals the problems of spiritual and moral education of students of a pedagogical college located in a small city of Russia, Vilyuisk (Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). This settlement is very remote from the republican center (situated in the subarctic belt) with its rich historical past, originality and other unique characteristics. Initially, Vilyuisk was founded as a prison - a place of exile for the Decembrists, revolutionaries - Poles, Social Democrats, Bolsheviks, Socialist-Revolutionaries and others (M.I. Muravyev-Apostol, P.F. Duntsov - Vygodsky, N.G. Chernyshevsky whom the teacher's college is named after, etc.). The rich heritage of the past multiplied by the present acts as a powerful stimulant in the training of the students of the Vilyuisk Pedagogical College named after N.G. Chernyshevsky for future professional activities. In this context the extraordinary potential of museum pedagogy in the training of future specialists for preschool institutions is described. For these purposes after experimental testing a multifunctional educational platform has been created on the basis of the museum of the Vilyuisk Pedagogical College named after N.G. Chernyshevsky and it has been functioning. It works effectively as a purposefully organized socio-cultural environment influencing the stimulation of the creative interests of the students, enrichment of spiritual and moral concepts and it successfully functions as an open cultural and educational environment for professional and pedagogical activities, self-development of the students. In this context a special role belongs to the laboratories: development of children's environment, "We Draw Everything", music for everyone, theater for everyone, protection of historical and cultural monuments, pedagogical researches. The students of the experimental group in addition to the general training program for specialists have attended a course of extracurricular activities on the basis of the multifunctional educational platform. The stages of the formation of the spiritual and moral qualities of the students have been diagnosed and described. As a result, the features of the dynamics of the development of spiritual and moral culture of the students of the control and experimental groups have been revealed. The innovative experience of the Vilyuisk Pedagogical College can be extended to other regions of the Russian Federation.
