ISSUES OF PERSONALITY EDUCATION IN THE NAKHCHIVAN ENLIGHTENMENT ENVIRONMENT: HISTORICAL TRADITIONS AND MODERN METHODOLOGICAL APPROACHES

Abstract. The article analyzes the historical experience of the Nakhchivan enlightenment environment regarding personality education and the synthesis of this heritage with modern methodological paradigms. The study explores child psychology, the unity of family and school, and the factor of the mother tongue in M.T. Sidqi’s “Mektebi-Terbiye” model, as well as the principles of civic position and social responsibility within the “Molla Nasreddin” school. Against the backdrop of contemporary challenges, the integration of historical traditions with innovative approaches such as competency-based education, emotional intelligence, and digital citizenship is substantiated. In conclusion, the necessity of preserving historical continuity and applying modern pedagogical innovations in fostering a personality that is both nationally rooted and globally competitive is emphasized.
