Abstract

This article focuses on the theoretical reconstruction of the achievements of pedology as a science in its Ukrainian dimension in the time interval of 1923-1937. The results of the main ways of studying pupils with an emphasis on the issues of study and their practical purpose have been systematized and generalized through the analysis of scientific and pedagogical works of Ukrainian pedagogues and pedagogues-practitioners of the 1920-1930s. Emphasizing such issues as studying the budget of pupils' time, reproductions of schoolchildren's movements, social interests, children's schedule of work and rest, preventing their fatigue, improving their ability to work, introducing methods for objective assessment of students' knowledge and skills, influence of home conditions on students' achievement, etc., the author proves that the results of pedological research were used in the process of drawing up students' character references (profiles). It was stated that most of the publications in question were of practical nature and covered the results of various pedological studies aimed at improving educational process at school. The article contains diagrams, samples of pedagogical and pedological profiles and requirements to their contents and methods of drawing them up. It was proved that pedagogical and pedological profiles had common components related to the general information about the pupil, his training, mental development, psychological qualities, unique aspects of health, living conditions in the family, socio-political orientation of the person, attitude to work, execution of public duties. The main difference of a pedagogical profile from a pedological one is the emphasis on the class orientation of the pupil and more attention to his success and behavior. It was emphasized that the defeat of pedagogical science, as a result of the resolutions of the Party from 4 July 1936, “On Pedological Distortions in the System of People's Commissariats of Education”, negatively influenced the process of studying pupils by a teacher with further compilation of a pedagogical profile. It is emphasized that the term “psychological and pedagogical profile” was introduced into the scientific vocabulary by the Soviet psychologist Sergey Rubinshtein in 1935 in the article “Psychological and Pedagogical Profiles of Primary and Secondary School Pupils”, which defined the main directions of studying the pupil and drawing up his profiles in the decades to come.
