НАЦІОНАЛЬНО-ПАТРІОТИЧНЕ ВИХОВАННЯ КУРСАНТІВ ЗАКЛАДІВ ВИЩОЇ ОСВІТИ ІЗ СПЕЦИФІЧНИМИ УМОВАМИ НАВЧАННЯ

The article examines the national-patriotic education of higher education students in higher education institutions with specific training conditions that train police officers (hereinafter referred to as higher education institutions with specific training conditions) as a component of their professional development in the context of full-scale armed aggression against Ukraine. It is substantiated that in such institutions, national-patriotic education cannot be considered only as a direction of general educational work or a set of measures for state and commemorative dates. It should function as a cross-cutting value-professional system aimed at the formation of Ukrainian national and civic identity, legal awareness, moral stability, discipline, readiness to serve the Ukrainian people and perform official tasks in the field of ensuring public security and order, protecting human rights and freedoms, as well as the interests of society and the state, and combating crime. The approaches to understanding national-patriotic education, its content components, methodological principles and forms of implementation in higher education institutions with specific training conditions, set out in regulatory legal acts and scientific literature, are analyzed. It is emphasized that a feature of higher education institutions with specific training conditions is the combination of military-patriotic, spiritual-moral, legal and professional-practical dimensions of education. The feasibility of integrating the national-patriotic content of education into the educational process, extracurricular work, scientific and research activities, service training of cadets, as well as into professional-practical educational components, in particular tactical, pre-medical, physical and fire training, is proven. It is concluded that an effective model of national-patriotic education in higher education institutions with specific training conditions should be systematic, practically oriented, motivated and related to the real tasks of training future law enforcement officers.
