The Role of Moral Education in the Process of Mastering Knowledge

 

Introduction. The article draws attention to the historically established types of knowledge. It is noted that the development of a technogenic society objectively requires a moral component in the process of acquiring knowledge. The purpose of the article is to substantiate, within the framework of a hierarchically subordinate approach, the connection between theoretical and practical components in the learning process. Materials and Methods. The theoretical and methodological basis is the concepts of Thomists and Neo-Thomists. The matrix is a hierarchically-subordinate approach, which presupposes the formation of both stable knowledge in the corresponding academic discipline in the learning process, and the mechanisms of the formation of a moral personality. Causal-genetic and axiological methods are used as tools. Results. The article argues that the application of the analyzed approach is an effective way to acquire knowledge and transform it for the development of a moral and creative personality. The main conceptual provisions of the considered approach are highlighted, which allows, on the one hand, to form the pedagogical skill of the teacher in the framework of training, on the other hand, to change the student’s value system, developing an interest in knowledge and moral perfection. Discussion and Conclusion. The practical significance of the research focused on the formation of a personal value system is emphasized. The conditions for the practical implementation of the proposed methodology, which occupies an adjacent position between the motivational and educational aspects of the educational process, are indicated.

Keywords: knowledge, hierarchical approach, personality, metaphysics, wisdom, morality, subordination, theology, creativity.
