The formation of the theoretical and methodical bases of literary education in the national groups of the higher school of the Republic of Mordovia

Abstract

This article, based on rich historical material, examines the history of the formation of literary education in national groups of higher schools of the Republic of Mordovia, as well as a wide range of issues related to the development of pedagogical foundations of university literary education. Based on the analysis of the first curricula, programs and textbooks on Russian and native literature for students of national groups of the university and the pedagogical institute, it is noted that the most difficult task at the initial stage of the formation of university literary education was the correct solution of issues related to its structure and content of education. At the same time, the overload of the curriculum and the lack of a coherent concept of literary education prevented the preparation of highly qualified teachers.
