Abstract
Rapid globalization, digital transformation, and socio-cultural change are placing new demands on education systems and social institutions. This article considers the process of forming an individual’s social culture as a complex pedagogical phenomenon, with the interaction of family, educational institutions and social environment. The author has developed a three-level model that reflects the main mechanisms and values of socialization on the basis of theoretical analysis and empirical study. The model includes the system of pedagogical methods aimed at developing key social values such as respect, tolerance, politeness and responsibility. The primary focus of the study was the role of family upbringing, the educational process and the influence of society as interrelated factors in the formation of social culture. The results of the study showed high significance of family and educational institutions, and also the influence of social environment on the development of civic responsibility and an individual’s value system. The scientific novelty of the work is determined by the systematic integration of three social levels and the justification of pedagogical conditions that contribute to the formation of social culture. The practical significance of the presented model consists in its application for planning educational work in schools, universities and youth organizations.
