Mikhno O. The Phenomenon of Pedagogical Profile of a Student in Domestic Education and Education Science (mid-nineteenth – second half of the twentieth century).

The dissertation first studies the phenomenon of pedagogical profiles of students in domestic education and education science in the middle of the XIX – second half of the XX century, which resulted from an analysis of a significant set of archival and published historical and pedagogical sources. The conceptual matrix of the study is a set of theoretical approaches (the basic is a phenomenological approach, with which hermeneutic, system-chronological, anthropological, personalistic, psychological, paradigmatic, regional, historiographical, and source-based methods, and micro-historical approaches are consistent at the macro level), methods (historical-structural, constructive-genetic, comparative, paradigmatic, retrospective, modeling, content analysis), principles (of historicism, objectivity, systematics, determinism). It is proved that the period of 1940-1980 is marked by the increased attention of education scientists and psychologists to the pedagogical profile and its active application in the practice of school work; the dismemberment of the semantic and methodological levels in the student's study organization by the student was overcome; new programs for studying students that simultaneously formed the structure of the profile were proposed on the basis of the latest scientific advances. During this period, several trends were distinguished: the characterization of the student as a prerequisite for an individual approach to the student with the requirements of determining the level of success and reflecting the ideological features of the "new Soviet" man; detailing the student study program with different degrees of specification of each item of the program and the plan of compiling the profile; deepening the study of age characteristics of students (junior, middle, senior classes). By comparative interpretation of V. Sukhomlinsky's activity and works, it is proved that the researched phenomenon was formed into a holistic construct in his scientific and pedagogical heritage: the teacher considered the profile both as a means of studying the student using the methods and principles developed by the teachers-predecessors and as the basis of the individual approach.
