Abstract

The article presents the author’s reflection on the potential resource of the educational component of the history of national education for strengthening the formation of national memory and national self-awareness among learners of the second and third levels of higher education, primarily in pedagogical education, within the context of the challenges of the period of martial law caused by Russian military aggression against Ukraine. The purpose of the article is, based on the challenges and needs of the present day as well as on the current state policy of historical memory of Ukraine, to substantiate the expediency of introducing the mandatory teaching of the educational component History of National Education for students of pedagogical specialties as an effective factor in continuing the formation of national historical memory. The research methodology of the issues raised is based on source analysis and retrospective examination of documentary and interpretative texts that reveal the approaches of official authorities and researchers to understanding the concepts indicated in the title and purpose of the article. Taken together, these texts represent the contemporary discourse in the field of explicating historical memory and the means of its formation. The textual analysis was also carried out within the framework of a hermeneutic approach to the interpretation of the selected texts, which involves a semantic analysis of linguistic forms and constructs. It is argued that the full-scale armed invasion by the neighbour- aggressor into the territory of the Ukrainian state has actualized the problem of protecting the historical and cultural heritage of our people, including national memory in the field of education, especially the native language. Every future educator, not only professional historians, should acquire competencies in preserving and protecting historical memory, which has an identificational, worldview, and patriotically oriented purpose. The potential opportunities of the educational component History of National Education are revealed, with emphasis on the history of Ukrainians’ struggle for native-language enlightenment and education, on the significance of highlighting the role of Ukrainians abroad in defending the native language and traditions, which embodies the idea of Ukrainian unity (sobornist), as well as on the importance of future educators’ understanding of the contemporary legislative component of the state policy of national memory of the Ukrainian people.
