THE PRINCIPLE OF RELATIVISM IN EDUCATION

Abstract

The article analyzes the philosophical foundations of pedagogical activity. The authors argue that in order for the education system to work effectively, it must rely on pedagogical technologies that meet the modern requirements of society for a person. But there is an imbalance between the formal and increasingly increasing reporting requirements of education officials and the real practice of a teacher who finds himself between two models of pedagogical activity that do not match each other. According to the authors of the article, such inconsistency of requirements leads to forming relativism in the minds of teachers who perceive the declared principles of pedagogical activity as temporary, unstable, changing and, ultimately, not having the force of a categorical imperative.
