Ethnopedagogy As A Method in The Crisis of The New Century (Taking into Account the Adygeyan Experience)

Abstract

The relevance of the presented article is due to the processes of globalization taking place in the world space, including the post-industrial technocracy, which is evident today. The crisis of individual consciousness that arises in these conditions, primarily affecting young people, requires the derivation of new didactic formulas. In this case methods include observation, analytical comparison, synthetic structuring. Folk pedagogy in the North Caucasus (in particular, among the Circassians), presented in the article as a possible methodological solution, is capable of helping in the formation and instilling of the required system of values in a teenager, bypassing the complications existing in the Russian Federation: 1) bilingualism and 2) society. The main goal was to study the theoretical and methodological foundations of national (in particular, Adyghe) ethnopedagogy as a rich didactic resource, the study of which contributes to the achievement of tactical educational tasks. As it was revealed in the course of the study, the inclusion of ethno-pedagogical means in the educational scheme is hampered today due to insufficient applied knowledge. The inculcation of individual dominants at all times is clearly connected by the national beliefs of native speakers, which is directly reproduced in ethnic techniques. Thus, in general: 1) in pedagogical practice, if possible, one should rely on the ethnopedagogical information of previous generations, but 2) at the same time, it is necessary to instill in the student an interest in scientific knowledge and the process.
