Analysis of the representation of key topics of sustainable development in subject educational standards of Kyrgyzstan

Abstract

Education for Sustainable Development is an area of activity that aims at fostering responsible members of society. The very process of personality formation within the educational environment cannot be divorced from the use of standardized technologies, procedures, techniques and teaching methods, the designation of significant areas of knowledge and the developed methods for assessing the results of the development of competencies. Subject standards, as part of the country's educational standard, are designed to coordinate the process of assimilating meaningful information, developing skills and acquiring skills to meet the needs of representatives of the current generation, without putting at risk the capacity of generations to come in meeting their own requirements. The study analyzes the current educational standards of the Kyrgyz Republic from the point of view of comparing the approaches of standard environmental education and Education for Sustainable Development. The features of the implementation of an interdisciplinary approach in the study of economic, social and environmental aspects are revealed. Steps are proposed to improve subject standards in order to ensure both information sufficiency and the formation of behavioral practices consistent with the key accents reflected in the conventions on climate change, combating desertification and biodiversity.
