ABSTRACT
Introduction: modern educational standards direct a school on the so-called active approach to education requiring the proper training and methodological support. Especially relevant this task is for disciplines newly introduced into the educational program, including before the special course on the history of the Russian Cossacks for the cadet classes with the Cossack component in the educational program.
Objective: to define the basic principles of creating this type of textbook as a chrestomathy with materials for the organization of independent study of students. Review of literature of methodological and historical nature predetermined the reference to the new scientific direction – methodology of history (A. Petrov) as a synthesis of the achievements of historical science and the previous methodological developments in teaching of history. The authors came to the conclusion that it is necessary to use in the methodology not only the provisions of didactics, but also data of historical science to identify the contents of a chrestomathy and methods of its learning.
Research materials: methodological and historical literature selected by the authors. As a universal approach to its analysis and synthesis the principles of social, cultural, mental, intellectual history were used; they allowed seeing the “human face” of history, to achieve both educational results and educational effect.
Results and novelty of the research: the results of the study are divided into three groups: an assessment of the status and prospects of evolution of the Russian Cossacks, situational moments in teaching of history in a modern school, and, finally, the principles of compiling of collections of educational materials (chrestomathies) on the history of the Cossacks. The scope of the discussion included the problem of the relation between form and content of a teacher’s work, tutorial work, the role of the teacher in the educational process, and the so-called “methodology of history”. The authors offered the approaches which were used by them in preparing of the original version of “The chrestomathy on history of the Russian Cossacks” as significant moments.
Key words: Federal state educational standards, activity-based and competency-based approaches to learning, humanities knowledge and information, the history of the Russian Cossacks, the role of the teacher in the educational process, chrestomathy on the history of the Cossacks.
