Organizational and pedagogical conditions for the process of educating historical memory of students in cultural institutions: a personal-activity approach

The relevance of the study is due to the new sociocultural situation in our country, when society has an urgent need to improve the process of educating students’ historical memory in cultural institutions.
In a dynamically changing world, where universal, historical and cultural values change dramatically, the process of educating the historical memory of students in cultural institutions becomes more complicated. In the light of a new vision of public life, the methodology, theory and practice of cultural institutions is radically changing. This, in turn, requires a new pedagogical approach and professional practical attitude of specialists from cultural institutions.
The content of historical memory is a holistic value system and experience gained through the events that have happened and those taking place today in the world and in our state.
The solution to the problem of educating historical memory in the specific organizational and pedagogical conditions of cultural institutions largely depends on the attitude of students to their Motherland and the world, which ensures this strategic goal of educating Russian youth.
In the context of this study, socio-cultural activity is considered as the main type of substantive activity, where the carriers of values, the conscious activity of a thinking and constructing subject are highlighted.
And in this special, creative objective activity, the goal, will, consciousness of a young student, his needs, motivation, psychological attitudes and their implementation in specific organizational and pedagogical conditions are combined. It is then that there is a sharp increase in the intensity of the thought process, reflecting sociocultural practice. The education of historical memory will be productive if the activities of cultural institutions as a pedagogical system are determined by organizational and pedagogical conditions.
In the conditions of the modern socio-cultural situation, the education of historical memory among students is quite difficult to build in connection with distant positive ideals, values, and moral norms, when all the world’s media, including the Internet, have a negative psychological impact on young people, and the main weapon of Western countries has become slander, distortion of historical truth. These non-activity zones oblige employees, teachers and specialists of cultural institutions to actively intervene in reality.
It is difficult for young students, accustomed to getting information from all kinds of gadgets, to master the true experience of historical events, domestic values, understand and give an objective assessment of the events of national history. This makes our research particularly relevant. Currently, there are quite a lot of problems in the activities of cultural institutions to educate the historical memory of students, even at the stage of theoretical understanding.
This topic has not received sufficient pedagogical elaboration, which made it possible to formulate it in the following aspect: “Organizational and pedagogical conditions for the process of educating the historical memory of students in cultural institutions: a personal-activity approach.”
