Abstract

The deepening ecological crisis as well as the pandemic of COVID-19 call for the change of norms of non-human animals treatment and for lifestyle transformation with provision for nature protection imperatives. The objective of the current research is to systematize the attempts of introducing bioethical values that provide for changing everyday life into Russian pedagogy. Such methods as analysis of literature sources, synthesis, induction, experiment, method of remote control have been applied. On the basis of analysis of literature sources it has been established that first, no attempts of generalizing pedagogic experience connected with rethinking bioethical norms of life treatment have been made in pedagogical science; second, projects connected with bioethical education haven’t been subjected to remote evaluation. It has been revealed that on the one hand, Russian pedagogical experience connected with bioethical transformation of lifestyle had fragmentary character, was mainly based on private initiatives; on the other hand, as our research made with the help of remote control method showed, even single activities of bioethical character held by schools together with voluntary organizations are able to motivate teachers to introduce bioethical themes into the educational process further and to make students rethink people’s obligations to living nature. For further development of transformative bioethical education we find it necessary to carry out interdisciplinary researches at the junction of pedagogy, exact, natural and social sciences and to introduce competencies connected with bioethical values into Federal educational standard for pedagogic students.
