POTENTIAL OF ARTISTIC AND HISTORICAL RECONSTRUCTION PERFORMANCES TO FORM YOUTH VALUES

Abstract

The article discusses the role that artistic and historical reconstruction performances play in the educational process of university students, specifically in the way values are formed and adjusted. The study involves a combination of traditional psycholinguistic methods that allow to establish the formation or lack of formation of a value, and to define “problem” moments that educational work should be aimed at, as well as methods of theater pedagogy that help adjust the content of a value. Working with students involves several stages: conducting a free associative experiment that determines the formation / lack of formation of a value, showing a performance, conducting a longitudinal experiment that allows to determine the changes that have occurred. The authors conclude that the uniqueness of the carried out work lies in the fact that the scenarios of theatrical performances include a psycholinguistic component, which natively introduce the necessary meanings into the minds of students in the process of working on the production, as well as for the audience when watching the production. This format of work through “soft power” will allow one to avoid unnecessary resistance and form a traditional understanding of the value of “Motherland” through attracting students to participate in theatrical performances, through their own inspiration and enthusiasm.
