Artyukhina M.S. Intellectual Upbringing of Students in Terms of Interactive Teaching Technologies

Abstract: The research subject is the intellectual upbringing of students. The general goal of the intellectual upbringing is the enrichment of students’ mental experience. Intellectual upbringing is performed through developing the basic intellectual qualities such as the competency in one’s major and professional competency in general, independent activity and self-regulation, creative activity and intellectual initiative and unique attitude of mind. Mental or ‘intellectual’ experience of a student is the ground for intellectual upbringing. The main goal of intellectual upbringing is to help a student to build his own mental world through enrichment of his individual mental or intellectual experience. In this article Artyukhina provides a review of psychological and pedagogical researches as well as shares her own view on intellectual upbringing of school and university students. Artyukhina suggests that we should extend the list of the basic intellectual qualities and focus on high school students. She also suggests to use interactive teaching technologies for intellectual upbringing of school students because as the psychological ground of intellectual upbringing, mental or intellectual experience is the key source of interactive teaching technologies.
