Abstract

The article highlights the circumstances of development of conceptual and categorical determinations of the problems in educational transformations by Ukrainian scientists. The author analyzes modern approaches to the concepts of "modernization", "reformation", "transformation". Next to that considered and specified the content of such categories as "reform", "educational reform" and " school reform". Investigated that problems of determination in this direction were studied by following Ukrainian scientists: L. Berezivska, A. Boyko, A. Vasilyuk, V. Kremen, S. Krimsky, M. Mihalchenko, V. Ognevyuk, N. Pobirchenko A. Sbruyeva, S. Sysoiev, Y. Sokolovych Altunin, K. Shyhnenko and others. It notes that the terms "transformation", "reforming", "modernization" in the scientific pedagogical literature, are often used as synonyms rows. Despite the numerous interpretations, there is no unity in understanding of these concepts among scientists. Established that despite the wide using of the term "transformation" in the pedagogical literature, in fact the concept is not elaborated enough. In particular, the national pedagogical encyclopedic literature and vocabularies the term is absent. Analysis of the conceptual definitions about the problem in educational transformations by Ukrainian scientists in pedagogy helped us to identify the essential characteristics of the definitions which we research. The definition "transformation" includes the fundamental, structural, long-term, quality changes of the educational system with implementation of innovations. The essential characteristics of the deformational process are that it is mostly initiated and always carried by power authorities. Reformation – are changes occurring through reforms (reforms), which are characterized by a clear sense of purpose, without a radical transformation of the system. Determined that modernization – is part of a broader process (transformation or reformation), which characterized by updating, modernization, but not the entire system, but only some of its elements.
