Abstract

Objective of the study is to theoretically substantiate the integration of health-forming technologies into the professional upbringing of vocational education students on the basis of a social-partnership approach. Methods and structure of the study. A theoretical analysis of the normative-legal acts, scientific publications and reporting documents of the vocational education institutions of the Sverdlovsk Region was conducted. The methods of conceptual-terminological analysis, systematisation and pedagogical modelling were applied. The essential characteristics of health-preserving, health-forming and health-orienting technologies were differentiated. Results and conclusions. It was substantiated that health-forming technologies act as an integrating principle of professional upbringing and are realised through a social-partnership approach as a mechanism of pooling the resources of education, production and social institutions. The social-partnership approach is considered not as an instrument, but as a methodological foundation of professional upbringing. It determines not only the forms, but also the aims, content and criteria of the effectiveness of the upbringing process. The integration of health-forming technologies into professional upbringing is possible with the coordination of the aims and values of all the subjects of social partnership, which ensures the continuity of health-forming practices at all stages of professional preparation. A distribution of responsibility was substantiated: the educational organisation is responsible for the content of health-forming preparation, the enterprise ensures the environment and motivation, the student bears responsibility for their own attitude to health. Three directions of the realisation of the social-partnership approach were singled out: educational-content, procedural-organisational and upbringing-professional. It was shown that professionally applied physical preparation and corporate culture act as the basic factors of the integration of health-forming technologies into professional upbringing on the basis of the social-partnership approach.
