DEVELOPING STUDENTS’ SOCIO-MORAL COMPETENCIES: PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS

Abstract:

This article examines the key problems that arise in the process of developing students’ socio-moral competencies and the ways to address them based on a theoretical and methodological analysis. The relevance of the topic is justified by the growing need in modern higher education to shape young people as socially responsible, morally mature individuals with a strong civic stance. The study is based on a systematic analysis of pedagogical and psychological literature, which identifies the factors that reduce the effectiveness of the educational process and substantiates conceptual approaches and methodological directions aimed at overcoming these challenges. As a result, a set of pedagogical solutions aimed at developing students’ socio-moral competencies is proposed. The proposed approach has scientific and practical significance for improving the effectiveness of educational work in higher education institutions.
