The educational system is a set of guidelines that is aimed at combining public, state, personal interests with the originality of national culture, familiarity with them of the younger generation. The changes that are taking place in modern Russia have led to the reform of schools.
Standard as an option of social contract
Education and educational systems used in the last century have ceased to meet the demands that are presented to schooling by modern realities. That is why the need has ripened for a change in classical standards; a substantial reform of domestic education and development is required.
This area is that part of society, which to some extent represents the interests of the entire population of the country.
The educational pedagogical system is the foundation that is used by millions of teachers studying. It affects the interests of various public organizations, families, and therefore needs serious consideration and analysis.
Relevance of reforms in school education
The time has come for major changes. The state educational system that existed earlier has lost its relevance. New standards being developed for all academic disciplines should fully satisfy the social order of society. They should establish the relationship between the state and educational institutions.
The task of the standard is to periodically update the content of subjects, make adjustments to universal educational skills that should be mastered by schoolchildren of the primary, basic, secondary level of education.
Classification
Basic educational systems must satisfy public, individual, state needs and interests. Similar needs in this area integrate the potential of social, personal, as well as professional success of students.
Such an activity involves harmonious and multifaceted self-development, taking into account individual interests, inclinations, abilities, motives. Social adaptation characterizes the painless entry of the younger generation into the country's public life.
Social request for modern schools
The system of educational standards involves a list of specific social needs that should be formed in the learning process:
- healthy and safe lifestyle;
- willingness to put into practice all the knowledge and skills acquired in the learning process;
- responsibility and freedom associated with the awareness of the moral essence of freedom;
- the ability to make personal conscious choices;
- ability to full-time work;
- adoption and awareness of the multifaceted nature of traditions, tolerance.
School Requirements
The state order, which is currently presented to Russian schools, involves significant changes. Modern educational systems must meet certain requirements in this area. They are related to the implementation of the following priorities:
- security and national unity, necessary for the formation of a sense of civic identity in the younger generation of our country;
- training active, morally mature, competent citizens who are ready to live and work in real economic conditions.
The system of educational programs should be designed so that the emphasis is not on obtaining a huge amount of knowledge and skills, but on the formation of self-development and improvement skills.
The interest of the state lies in the creation of certain standards, according to which it would be possible to evaluate not only the activities of school teachers and educators of children's institutions, but also the work of the institution itself. GEF of the new generation were developed specifically in order to develop common requirements, form professional standards for workers in kindergartens, schools, technical schools, and academies.
This approach allows us to eliminate any social conflicts, to make education absolutely accessible for all children, regardless of their social status, financial situation.
GEF second generation
The new system of educational activity involves a consistent orientation towards the formation of a personal space for each child. This approach allows developing skills of independence, elements of social responsibility in the younger generation.
The standard is a tool for organizing the interaction of individual entities in national education. It contains information about the goal, progress, means and resources necessary for its successful implementation.
The modern educational system is a combination of various teaching methods that contribute to the formation of a harmoniously developed personality, loving his country, respecting the traditions of his ancestors.
Priorities of modern education
Currently, the educational system is a huge potential for the development and improvement of each child. The essence of updates is to create a single educational space, the continuity between the individual levels. GEF of the new generation ensures the availability of education within the framework of the compulsory subject minimum. This document contains the basic requirements for the preparation of graduates at each level of education.
New Generation Standards
What are the distinguishing features of a modern educational system? The functions that even a regular school should perform are specified in the Standard. It is he who acts as a reference point for improving the content of each educational field, as a means of continuity of individual levels in the framework of the transition to a continuous learning system.
Among the functions that the GEF should fulfill, its developers single out the guarantee of rights guaranteed by the Constitution.
The educational system is a certain mechanism for the management of which a single set of requirements was needed. It is not limited to the creation of basic requirements, but involves the use of variable programs.
There are certain differences between the mandatory minimum stipulated by the Federal State Educational Standard and the real content of the subject taught in Russian schools.
The essence of the proposed transformations is that the basic part in each scientific field is defined by the Standard in order to provide all students with the same basic education. Moreover, each institution has the right to an in-depth study of individual subjects.
Learning Approach
As the fundamental difference between the new generation of GEF, its creators call the strengthening of their focus on learning outcomes. An active educational paradigm has been created in Russian psychological and pedagogical science, within the framework of which the educational process is analyzed. The system-activity approach is based on the ideas of L. S. Vygotsky, D. B. Elkonin, A. N. Leontyev. It was they who were able to uncover the principles of psychological laws of the processes of education and training. Their work necessarily takes into account all the laws of age development of adolescents and children.
The active approach is based on the principle that psychological abilities are considered as a result of the transformation of external activity during successive transformations into internal psychological work.
The basis of the assimilation of the system of various scientific terms that determine the formation of theoretical thinking, the progress of cognitive development of students, is an empirical type of thinking. Education is aimed at mental development through the independent activities of students. That is why the Federal State Educational Standard for each subject indicates universal educational skills that every student should master after mastering the course.
Features of the implementation of new programs
The priorities of the updated education system are associated with the formation of independence skills among the younger generation. Having received a specific task from the teacher, the pupils should consider an individual educational trajectory, when moving along which they can cope with this problem.
GEF of the new generation to the forefront is not filling the discipline with scientific facts, but the formation of skills for developing and testing hypotheses, the ability to conduct project activities, independence and initiative. To measure such a result, the new standards provide for the term “subject-matter qualities”, skills, and abilities.
Finally
The modernization of the domestic education system is aimed at improving the efficiency of certain indicators:
- giving all educational results a personal and socially significant character;
- strong and flexible learning by students;
- ability of independent movement in a certain educational field;
- the implementation of differentiated training using a single theoretical structure;
- maximum increase in motivation of the younger generation to obtain new skills.
The active approach in the new educational standards contributes to the creation of conditions for personal and cultural development of students on the basis of the formation of universal learning skills that provide not only high-quality assimilation of knowledge, but also the formation of a single picture of the world, strong competencies in all subject areas of knowledge.
The key tasks of the updated content of Russian education are related to ensuring equal opportunities in mastering the various skills of absolutely all students.
For example, the classical course of inorganic chemistry involves the formation of clear ideas about the safe use of numerous classes of substances in the younger generation, and is also aimed at developing practical skills.
Personal development is associated with the willingness of schoolchildren to independently acquire knowledge, to realize their creative potential in subject-productive and spiritual activities. Young people, leaving the walls of their educational institution, must have high professional and social mobility. The success of their future profession directly depends on how much they have managed to form their learning abilities.
Of particular importance in modern Russia is patriotic education. Therefore, in each educational area included in the school curriculum, a certain number of hours is allocated to the regional component. Within its framework, teachers acquaint their pupils with the climatic and historical features of the region, instill in the younger generation a love of a small homeland.
