THE IMPACT OF MULTICULTURALISM ON EDUCATION

In the modern world, as demographics, social conditions, and political circumstances change, the question of creating conditions for the development of a multicultural personality with the aim of fostering social cohesion and tolerance towards other nationalities is acute. A multicultural education, which is based on the equality of social justice, is called upon to achieve this goal. The main research methods are: theoretical analysis of foreign and domestic literature on the research problem, analysis of the relationship of concepts such as multiculturalism and polyculturalism. The components necessary for the formation of multiculturalism in pedagogy are the reduction of prejudice, the expansion of educational and social culture. The pedagogical problems of multiculturalism mainly deal with the issues of sociocultural, linguistic and psychological adaptation of foreign ethnic children the support of migrant children in a multicultural educational environment, in connection with which the principles of multicultural education are determined, and the features of multicultural teacher training for working with foreign ethnic children are studied. Scientific, theoretical and practical aspects of the organization of educational work with students are being developed in the modern school. It becomes important to understand what a multicultural person is and how he differs from “ordinary” people, at what stage the definition and tracking of the conditions under which a cultural identity turns into a multicultural one is taking place. These aspects require special attention, as they relate to efforts to resolve conflicts in the existing society. Potentially, a multicultural style can be formed and manifest itself in any society or culture that faces new views, a different way of life. In early 2020, the changes associated with the coronavirus pandemic, have revived the need to preserve our own and collective cultural identity. Along with disorientation, new opportunities appear in order to realize our individuality and the identity of the human race as a whole. Perhaps, right now, a new type of individual is emerging, which is part of a community of citizens who want to see the world as one and feel like something whole with all its parts.
