Prolegomena about the cluster-network model organization of the educational system in musical academies of Ukraine

The article „Prolegomena about the cluster-network model organization of the educational system in the musical academies of Ukraine” discusses the complexity of higher musical education and the need for new scientific approaches to address the changing pedagogical reality. The authors propose a cluster-network model for organizing the educational system in musical academies, which is based on the following components: conceptual – tasks, methods, forms, means; axiological– values; psychological and pedagogical – mechanisms of learning values; organizational and management – management of elements of the educational structure. The cluster-network model aims to increase the competitiveness of the educational system by developing the students’ competencies that meet the requirements of the social order. It also emphasizes the importance of spirituality in education and the need for a holistic approach to human development. The authors argue that the ideal of human education is constantly changing, but the ability to correlate the concepts, ideas, and theories acquired during cognitive activity with an individual value system is a key indicator of successful education. The article highlights the importance of understanding the inner class and spiritual being of a person, as well as the need to implement some methods that contribute to penetrating into the phenomenological secrets of human consciousness for researching and revealing the most important mental structures of man. It also discusses the role of dialogue as a way of existing and coexisting- with the „other” in the communication process. The proposed model aims to address the challenges of the postmodern era, where the world is thought of as an open text not limited in its manifestations and interpretations. It emphasizes the importance of continuous education and the integration of knowledge from related disciplines to develop digital education and innovative work practices.
