Socio-cultural aspects in the humanistic education of modern youth

The article examines the sociocultural strategic aspects of moral education of modern schoolchildren, based on innovative pedagogical technologies and aimed at shaping the personality on the basis of humanistic and universal values. Social institutions have a purposeful influence on personality development, through which social and cultural experience is reproduced in the individual's consciousness, behavior, and activities. As a result, moral character is formed, characterized by the individual's value-based attitude towards the world, oneself and others, nature, work, and education. These attitudes are grounded in values accepted by society, primarily universal ones. The dominant focus is on the formation of basic humanistic values. Thus, the article aims to prove the importance of the sociocultural aspects of humanistic education for modern schoolchildren and the formation of tolerant interpersonal relationships. Theoretical research methods used in the study include comprehensive, comparative, and retrospective analysis of the literature, along with various empirical methods. In the experimental work, a traditional approach was employed using control and experimental groups of respondents. Methods of mathematical statistics allowed to verify the reliability of the experimental research results. The practical significance of the research consists in the thorough analysis of the socio-cultural aspects of humanistic education, the application of theoretical principles and conclusions to specific scientific and methodological recommendations for the humanistic education of schoolchildren, and the development, testing, and implementation of innovative pedagogical technologies and active forms of educational work with secondary school students.
