Today’s Education: The Technology Breakthrough And The Preservation Of Traditions

Abstract

Within international discourse, the scientific conceptualization, interpretation of concepts and processes of modern education occupied by digitalization is following an evolutionary path which has not reached its culminating point yet. This determines the presence of various pedagogical attitudes in the reflection of the present and the future of education and of the mission of people involved. Many researchers suggest their own narrative evaluation of phenomena existing in education today. In a wide scientific discourse, the correlation between the methodology of mass digitalization, which claims to be innovative, and the existing pedagogical traditions supported by the personality-oriented humanitarian component of education is problematized. The authors reveal a scientific vision of the reality in the digitalization era of Russian education and demonstrate how the individuals involved influence it. The article presents anthropologically reflected experience in building competent and conscious Coexistence of people of different generations – students, teachers, parents in the recent situation of forced distance learning. This facilitated the creation of a complete picture of educational environment in the digital era, the identification of the role and mission of each individual involved. The authors’ thinking about co-scholarization in digital educational environment is based on anthropological traditions of pedagogical theory and practice. This scientific, pedagogical vision is the authors’ attempt to motivate everyone involved in education to think seriously what one cannot but take into account in his/her aspirations and actions, what he/she still has to do in order to make education of the present a firm foundation for education of the future.
