Приведенный примерный тематический план учебного курса «Философия и методология науки» представляет собой самую общую его структурно-содержательную модель. Естественно, он должен рассматриваться как одна из возможных версий содержательно-тематической развёртки предложенного курса. Принцип вариативности современного философского образования предполагает разработку профильных (по группам вузов, специальностей, направлений научных исследований и т.д.) учебных программ, в которых базовая философско-методологическая проблематика, обозначенная в данной программе, может приобретать иные формы структурной компановки и содержательной акцентации.

Конечно, предложенная дифференциация выступает самой общей схемой учета конкретно-профессиональных требований магистрантов, аспирантов и соискателей в процессе изучения курса «Философия и методология науки». Дальнейшая конкретизация и содержательное углубление этой схемы может быть осуществлено в различных учебных заведениях и научных центрах в соответствии с их спецификой на основе сохранения базовых требований предлагаемой программы.

Одной из новаций данной программы является акцент на необходимости существенной активизации творческой самостоятельной работы аспиранта по осмыслению и анализу предложенной литературы (как основной, так и дополнительной) и авторской интерпретации наиболее важных и актуальных проблем современной философии и методологии науки с учетом профиля диссертационных исследований, выполняемых аспирантами. Эта работа осуществляется, прежде всего, в процессе подготовки реферата по курсу «Философии и методологии науки» с последующей его защитой при сдаче кандидатского экзамена.

Опыт работы с аспирантами, накопленный во многих учебных и научных центрах Республики Беларусь, а также в странах СНГ, свидетельствует о том, что это очень важный и значимый компонент в системе философско-методологической подготовки аспирантов в целом. Он требует не только от аспиранта, но от его научного руководителя больших затрат времени и серьезного внимания к выбору темы реферата, а также информационно-теоретическому обеспечению его надлежащего уровня.

Авторский коллектив с благодарностью примет все конструктивные замечания, направленные на дальнейшее совершенствование предложенного учебного пособия по курсу «Философия и методология науки».


Introduction

 

Modern tendencies in the development of education focus the mastering of specialized educational programs at post-graduate level. According to the native traditions such programs are being done in the process of training of scientific and pedagogic stuff. The necessity to adapt the educational experience and progressive innovational technologies accumulated in the leading universities poses a number of challenges modern post-graduate courses face today. First of all it is the problem of unification of the profound professional training and the ways of its social and cultural adaptation. The point is to form and to develop in post-graduates the need to gain skills in scientific and pedagogic work, to solve actual scientific and research problems effectively, as well adequately evaluate the role and significance of new scientific ideas for the social development, to determine their value and anthropological dimension. This strategy in the development of specialized education meets with the main tendencies of the modern science dynamics; integrate which intensively instrumental, technological, social and cultural parameters of the scientific cognition.

With the above in mind, it is in principle to organize the study and research process at post-graduate level in such a manner, that they can organically combine specific scientific problems with general methodological training, which assume adequate perception and reflexive evaluation of ones own professional priorities.

Because of this it is necessary to positively evaluate the tradition existing in the national Universities, according to which the successful training of scientific and pedagogic stuff presupposes a systematic study of philosophy and the shaping on this background skills of reflexive and methodological thinking.

In present-day situation the role and meaning of philosophical and methodological training of post-graduates and young scientists increases greatly. It is determined by the complex of objective factors which takes place in the society and forms the social dynamics problematic at the turn of the XX-XXI centuries. The frontal implantation of the science and modern information technologies in the most important spheres of the social activities, the globalization of the worlds development, permanent worsening of the ecological problems, rise of the multiply centers of regional tension connected with the processes of transformation and modernization of post-socialistic and developing states, phenomenon of the culture popularization and formation of nonlinear and virtual models of the life of consciousness – these and many other phenomena rise the problems of philosophical, world outlook, logical and methodological level. Their professional and creative comprehension requires serious and accentuated trainings of future scientists and teachers.

The course “Philosophy and methodology of science” is summoned to contribute to the solving of this cardinal problem and according to the resolution of the High Certificating Committee it is recommended for studying in post-graduate courses and is oriented, in the first place, on the problems of philosophical and methodological ensuring of scientific and professional work of post-graduates and competitors, their creative understanding of appropriate philosophical problems, directly connected to the problems of logics, methodology, sociology of science and education.

The change to the multilevel system of education realized today in the high educational establishments of Belarus determined the orientation of the board of philosophy and methodology of science to the following model of philosophy teaching.

The first level. The course “Philosophy” given at this level has to lay the foundation of students grounding in philosophy and provides him with the possibility of the worlds classical philosophical tradition systematic mastering.

The second level – training of the professionally qualified specialists. The course “Philosophy in the modern World”. A distinctive feature of this course is an accented orientation on a problem and substantial features of modern philosophical way of thinking. The course main goal consists in getting the students acquainted with the most considerable ideas and concepts of postclassical philosophy on the basic knowledge of philosophy which is already available for them.

The third level is oriented on the problems of post degree education within the limits of magistracy and postgraduate studies; it supposes the studying of the course «Philosophy and science methodology». This course is developed according to «the Program-minimum of the candidate examination in philosophy and methodology of science, adopted by the HAC order of the 30th of December 2004 № 179. First of all it is focused on philosophical and methodological maintenance of the future professional pedagogical and research activity of holders of master’s degrees, post-graduate students and competitors. The prior attention in it is given to the problems of creative understanding of the corresponding philosophical problems directly related to the questions of logics and methodology of science. Because of this, the conceptual and theoretical basis of a course offered in the given manual is interpreted by authors, first of all, as a philosophy and methodology of scientific knowledge. However, as the modern understanding of a science assumes obligatory disclosing of its various measurements and implications (social and ecological, anthropological, social and cultural, etc.) so far the epistemological problem area is closely connected with questions of social philosophy, philosophical anthropology and other parts of philosophical knowledge. As a result the course gets complete and systematic character, but in its substantial and thematic accents distinctly dominates the logical, methodological and scientific range of problems.

It is necessary to admit, that not only in Belarus, but also in a number of other post-soviet republics, similar processes of search and grounding of the differentiated technologies of the philosophical education development take place. So, in the Russian Federation, there is a decision to teach the course «History and philosophy of science» at the level of post-degree educational programs.
