Formation of Schoolchildren’s Health Culture by Means of Pedagogical Technologies in an Inclusive Educational Space
Abstract
The article reveals the theoretical foundations of forming a health culture within the conditions of an inclusive educational process in the context of contemporary social transformations, wartime challenges, and the growing psycho-emotional burden on children.It is substantiated that, under modern conditions, the school performs not only an educational function but also health-preserving and rehabilitative functions, ensuring the physical, psychological, and social well-being of students.It is emphasized that inclusive education, based on the principles of equality, support, and mutual respect, creates a favorable environment for developing a health culture among all participants in the educational process, particularly children with special educational needs.The study provides a theoretical analysis of scientific sources in which the concept of health culture is considered an integrative pedagogical category that combines valeological knowledge, self-regulation skills, emotional literacy, tolerance, and a responsible attitude toward one's own and collective health.The main difficulties in implementing health-preserving strategies in inclusive classrooms are identified, including insufficient teacher preparedness, the lack of a system for evaluating the effectiveness of such technologies, and limited methodological support.It is concluded that pedagogical technologies aimed at forming a health culture in the inclusive educational process are an effective tool for improving the level of physical and psychological well-being of schoolchildren, developing their social competencies, and ensuring the successful integration of children with special educational needs.The systematic implementation of health-preserving technologies is proposed as a strategic direction for improving the quality of inclusive education and fostering sustainable values of a healthy lifestyle among students.
