PRIORITY VALUES INNOVATIVE EDUCATIONAL PRACTICES OF SCHOOL ART EDUCATION: THE MEANING OF THE SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY
On the basis of theoretical and experimental research the article analyses factors that provide the implementation of the "national doctrine of education in Russia" and "road map for arts education" adopted by the international community on the results of World Conference on arts education (Lisbon, March 6-9, 2006). The author examines the problems associated with access to art of students of the secondary school, covers the issues of art training and learning through art that characterizes the interaction between science and art. It is emphasized that the classical artistic culture of society, which serves as the methodological basis for the curriculum of familiarizing with art, is still largely unsuccessful in competition with the active forms of mass culture, widely replicated by the mass media. It is shown that modern innovative educational practice of school art education in Russia is focused on the integration of two didactic approaches, providing an organic combination of the teaching of art teaching and the teaching through art teaching didactics. The article analyzes the negative factors and tendencies observed in modern school art education: the insufficient pooling of efforts by organizations designed to ensure the process of familiarizing schoolchildren with art; weak interaction of school disciplines of the art cycle; an unsatisfactory degree of teacher training for school art education leaders. The author shows topical didactic means of neutralizing the above negative factors. The examples of the positive connections of the creators of artistic values with their personal qualities are shown.
