The development of pedagogical theory and practice in the context of modern physical and patriotic education

Abstract

The issues of physical and patriotic education have traditionally occupied one of the key places in the national education system. This is due to the objective need for the comprehensive development of the younger generation, the formation of healthy lifestyle skills and love for the Motherland among young people as necessary qualities of a citizen. At the same time, the challenges of modernity impose a number of additional requirements on these aspects of the educational process. Currently, the issues of physical and patriotic education of the younger generation are especially relevant due to a number of modern challenges. The purpose of this article is to study existing approaches to physical and patriotic personal development from the point of view of pedagogical theory and practice, as well as to consider the prospects for their further improvement. The study analyzed the fundamental concepts of physical and patriotic education among foreign and domestic scientists and teachers of different eras. Thus, the views of V. Franco, I. Pestalozzi, K. Ushinsky, S. Rubinstein, V. Sukhomlinsky and other key figures in this field were studied. Based on the results of the analysis, the fundamental principles of physical and patriotic personal development were highlighted, as well as the prospects for their further improvement in the context of modern challenges were considered. Several recommendations have been proposed to update existing approaches taking into account innovative trends.
