MUTUAL RELATIONS AND COMMUNICATION PROBLEM IN THE PEDAGOGICAL HERITAGE OF VASIL SUHOMLINSKY
Abstract
The practice of school life has shown that the success of the educational process is decisively determined by the relationship between teacher and students, student and his peers, teacher and parents, child and parents.
All children, regardless of their learning outcomes, need a tolerant treatment and high culture of communication. Children of the XXI century are children with high levels of emotional sensitivity, hyperactivity and expressiveness who are painfully responsive to any demonstration of injustice. The problem of relationships and communication in student teams should be a priority issue in every educational institution. Lack of tact and kindness is one of the causes of conflict between teacher and students. The lack of these qualities significantly reduces the possibilities of the educational process, as Vasyl Sukhomlynsky has repeatedly emphasized. Today, his ideas and expressions in the context of solving this problem deserve special status. The idea of love, humanity, humanism, tolerant attitude to the students is the cross-cutting theme of the whole Vasyl Sukhomlynsky’s pedagogical heritage. The teacher-educator urged teachers to avoid anger, rudeness, not to be «thick-skinned», because it negatively affects the atmosphere and the means of education and training. Vasyl Sukhomlynsky considered a word as an important means of moral education of children and human language culture as a mirror of spiritual culture. V. Sukhomlynsky emphasized that one should be particularly tolerant to a slow learner. In «School under the blue sky» V.Sukhomlynsky created such a collective in which the atmosphere of mutual respect and help prevailed. The outstanding teacher was well aware that it was the nature of the relationship in a team that determined the status of each child, his emotional and mental well-being.
