CRISIS OF EDUCATION IN CONTEMPORARY RUSSIA AND WAYS OF ITS OVERCOMING
The article analyzes the main indications of crisis of education in contemporary Russia, its coordinates and history. The author comes to the conclusion that politicized Soviet pedagogy played a mobilizing role. It is noted that it is necessary to overcome crisis phenomena in pedagogy and improve the educational doctrine on the basis of higher school traditions rather than on the basis of radical change. The author has put forward an idea to renounce the notion “monitoring efficiency” by changing it to the notion “monitoring of higher institutions’ activity” which would conform to Article 101 of Federal Law “On Education in Russian Federation”. The author has stated general principles of the conception to overcome the present crisis.
Keywords: crisis of education, mobilizing role of Soviet pedagogy, non-state sector of higher education, monitoring of higher institutions’ activity, conception to overcome the crisis
