THEORY OF EDUCATION IN PEDAGOGY

Abstract

Education is one of the main categories of pedagogy and plays a decisive role in the formation of human personality. In pedagogical science, education is not only the process of forming behavior and morality, but also a complex activity that ensures the social, spiritual, intellectual and emotional development of a person. The theory of education studies this process on a scientific basis, determines its goals and objectives, and systematizes its methods and principles.

The main goal of the theory of education is to educate a person who is morally perfect, independent-thinking and socially responsible, in accordance with the ideals of society. In this regard, the content of the education process changes in accordance with the socio-political, cultural and spiritual requirements of each era. In modern pedagogy, the concept of education is based on the principle of respect for human nature, potential opportunities and individual characteristics. The theory of education has both a scientific and practical nature: on the one hand, it studies the regularities of human development, and on the other hand, it allows applying this knowledge in the educational and social environment. From a pedagogical point of view, education is evaluated as a purposeful and planned activity; its results have a long-term, but profound effect.

Consequently, the theory of education in pedagogy is a scientific system that ensures the comprehensive development of the personality. It is not only an integral part of the educational process, but also one of the main pillars of the moral and cultural stability of society
