PEDAGOGICAL MECHANISMS FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE STRATEGY OF PATRIOTIC EDUCATION

Abstract

The article notes the universal character of the concept “patriotism” and examines the national specifics of its manifestation. The appropriateness of introducing the notion “pedagogical mechanism” into the context of educational work is determined. Based on the analysis of the document “Strategy for the development of education in the Russian Federation for the period up to 2025”, the authors propose to consider the pedagogical mechanism as a set of procedures that ensure the desired changes in the consciousness, behavior, and personal qualities of students. The concept of “a form of patriotic behavior” is specified, and the difference between ideological, problematic, and conformal behavior is shown. It is suggested that patriotic work at a military educational establishment will be organized more effectively if teachers take into account the psychological and pedagogical mechanisms of patriotic education. Such mechanisms as the formation of a sense of belonging and involvement, identification, dramatization, self-projection, and generational continuity are outlined. Examples of forms of patriotic education based on the action of these mechanisms are supplied.
