TOWARD A POSTCLASSICAL PARADIGM FOR THE EDUCATION OF THE FUTURE

Abstract

The authors of the article analyze the implementation of post-classical education at the present stage of society development and forecast its future. The researchers define the concept of classical and post-classical education, highlight the factors of a crisis situation in the educational environment, highlight the demands of modernity on human skills and competences. The main legacy of the study is to offer solutions to crisis situations and predict the future based on the fall environment as an institution and as a set of techniques, methodologies, and learning principles (e.g., STEAM education, flipped classroom, electronic portfolio, active work in pairs or group, preparation of presentations, the involvement of technology in learning, etc.). The authors of this study used the following methods: comparative-historical, systematic and inductive. The future of education lies in the constant rethinking of being and transformation under the demands of the twentieth century. But for now, the future is in the vein of “freedom and dignity of the child”. This work is theoretical, but its insights are useful for state structures in education and educational institutions to recall and give impetus to greater implementation of the newest systems and methods of education, so that the next generations no longer face severe crises, have quick adaptation, and be modern people.
