O ensino desenvolvimental e sua relevância para a pedagogia inovadora russa

Abstract

This   article   represents   a   discussion   about Developmental   Education   (DE)   in   Russia. Authors  assume  that  DE  helps  to  actualize ideas   offered   by   the   19^th century   Russian writer  Lev  Tolstoy  at  their  crossing  with  the pedagogical   theories   by   Vladimir   Repkin, Daniil   Elkonin,   and   Vasily   Davydov.   The Russian  options  of  DE  differ  from  the  foreign educational practices, which are applied in the field  of  the  higher  education.  In  Russia,  DE presupposes  the  interactive  attitudes  among teachers  and  students.  This  model describes  a situation in the Russian elementary education and   in   structures   of   additional   education. Authors analyze the history of the DE forming concerning  the  experience  accumulated  by  the Russian  scientists.  In  general,  authors  make the  conclusion  that Developmental  Education demonstrates the humanist tendencies instead of  the  mechanical  increase  of  the  encyclopedic foundations in traditional forms of education.
