The conceptual catastrophe, which has been going on in
Russian culture and mentality for more than a century, is especially difficult
in the sphere of the process of socio-cultural translation and reproduction,
sometimes called education, sometimes enlightenment, sometimes vocational
guidance and training - so that no one, neither students nor their teachers
know, in what, in fact, they participate and why, for what purpose, what result
are they expecting or just dragging and killing time? For fundamental
conceptual differences, it is proposed to use the methodological scheme of
mental activity proposed by M.G. Meerovich and became one of the basic schemes:
Thought activity in its totality represents three
interpenetrating layers: the upper one is thinking, in the sphere of school
institutional processes it corresponds to education; the middle one is
thought-communication (respectively, education) and the lower one is thought
action (training).
Education
For more than two centuries, intermittently, it has
been recognized that the main purpose of school (compulsory) education is
enlightenment - this is what this department was called and is called in the
Russian Empire, and in the USSR, and in the Russian Federation. Of course, this
does not remove other functions from the school, for example, educational and
teaching, but the family, the church, and the so-called, also participate in
education, along with the school. Environment, "street", Internet and
mass media [1,2]. In addition to the school, various circles, sections, clubs
and other forms of additional education, cyclic, regular and short-term,
participate in training. Enlightenment is called upon to form a worldview,
first of all, as the backbone \ frame \ "skeleton” of the inner world of
man.
Enlightenment is programmatic (with one "p")
in the sense that it gives a bouquet of letters and literacy:
- Linguistic
literacy (the ability to write and read in native and foreign languages)
- Mathematical
literacy (accounting, calculation of estimates, budgets and expenses, basics of
mathematical statistics and accounting, logic, digital operators and
combination, spatial orientation and imagination)
- legal
literacy (the most difficult, fatal problem that has a thousand-year history of
slavery and lack of rights , where the rights of the hedgehog, management and
government crushed the essence of law - justice ; it is legal illiteracy that
does not allow us to be among civilized peoples, it is precisely because of the
lack of law as justice that we have unjust and unjust courts and laws, the
widespread practice of circumventing and violating our own and international
laws, arbitrariness and violence, business and the economy as criminality,
deep-seated and indestructible corruption, total theft and ethical nihilism,
legal chaos and disorder), if we succeed in bringing about universal legal
education, then historically such monstrous and tragic distortions as the spy
president, Russian imperial fascism and colonialism will be excluded forever
and forever
- Computer
literacy, including IT, telephony, robotics, etc.
- financial
literacy
- transport
literacy, on foot, wheeled non-motorized and motorized, water and air
- sexual
and genetic literacy
- Spatio-
temporal literacy (history and geography)
- environmental
and biological literacy
- life
literacy = ideas about the right and healthy lifestyle (healer god Asclepius
and his daughters Cooking, Sanitation and Hygiene)
- philosophical
and mental literacy
- musical
literacy
- artistic
and aesthetic literacy (all types of arts, including local and national)
- Enlightenment
should occupy at least half of all school time - both in terms of its
importance and the fact that the school is practically a monopolist in
education. For the sake of education, you can even increase the duration of
school life to 12-14 years instead of the current 9-11.
