Formation and development of pedagogical thought Immanuel Кant

Abstract

The article examines the main provisions of Kant's pedagogical thought from the point of view of the modern understanding of human education and upbringing. Kant argues that only a person can be a subject of education. Considering the basic principles of education and upbringing proposed by Kant, it should be remembered that the philosopher relied largely on his own experience. At the same time, his pedagogical views are quite consistent with the spirit of the European Enlightenment. In his pedagogical theory, Kant, in accordance with the spirit of the Enlightenment era, distinguishes the concepts of "learning" and "education". By training, which refers to physical education and involves the development of physical properties and mental abilities of individuals, he understands the acquisition of knowledge, the formation of skills and the acquisition of skills. Education is always aimed at the formation of morality and the spiritual world of the individual. Therefore, he argues that pedagogy should become a scientific discipline. Kant considered practical education as less voluminous than physical education, which is more connected with the idea of the person to whom the educator should strive.
