Pedagogical potential of the student social volunteering activities under the conditions of military and political instability in Ukraine

Abstract

The article analyzes the phenomenon of social volunteering. Having ancient roots, it is hypothetically compared to the close cooperation of religious communities with representatives of different peoples of the world. With the impact of secularization, the phenomenon under study extrapolated to charitable organizations. This partially reflected the "rarity" of eternal social values – goodness, justice, charity, etc. The content of individual source materials where social volunteering is correlated with two national identifiers – mentality and culture – is reflected, which testifies to the importance of the influence of the national component in the formation of such social and cultural symbiosis. Consideration of social volunteering as a pedagogical problem become actual based on the priority tasks ofmodern education – to prepare a worthy young change that can withstand the challenges of time. In terms of general pedagogy, the phenomenon under study is based on the awareness of volunteering as a social value, which is reinforced by the altruistic principles of professional orientation to fulfill priority tasks for the social community. The extrapolation of theoretical preparation of a modern student to the panel of professional training for the future life in society is often quite different. It is a consequence of the isolation of the purpose of employment from current social and cultural tasks. To overcome the existing educational difficulties, it is necessary to shift to more complex substantiations of the theoretical material. It can be done employing the formulation of such problematic tasks that cause the student to think, reconsider and reproduce the reconsideration to solve problematic situations. The construction of an algorithm of such theoretical situations must contain some basics of rhetoric, complexity, and variability. This approach to business is especially valuable; it can be productive for the training of future managers at the pedagogical university. It will increase prudence in making important managerial decisions. An extremely important condition for the practical implementation of the above-mentioned tasks will be the targeted personal orientation of such an algorithm of theoretical situations. The author's position is justified based on at least two fundamental pillars of modern social and cultural progress – the self-esteem and identity of personal capital for the inter-civilizational progress. The practical implementation of the planned project and its first sketches will highlight such areas of personal development, which are still a "raw" material, and most pedagogical attention (cognitive, motivational, social, emotional, etc.) should be focused on it.
