The idea was born of this material by chance, after a friend asked to solve the school problem in logic to her son. Whether my full university has a crack, then if I have obvious problems with logic, but the task was not an easy one.
So, what is the logic and why this subject is not introduced in all schools.
The logic was a compulsory subject in the school curriculum long before 1916. For generations, children learn the basics of correct logical thinking.
The subject is rather complicated and call it fun just the language does not turn.
However, at that time there was no doubt that the study of logic helps to better understand the content of other disciplines and is the basis for the formation of correct and literate speech.
But, as the saying goes, everything has its time. The logic was demanded in schools and taught at a fairly serious level only until 1917. The Bolsheviks came to power in late 1917 and in 1918 banned the logic in the schools at universities. It is a reasonable solution, because what happened to the vast country, clearly did not fit into any rules of logic.
It would seem - a trifle, just expelled from school one of the subjects. But, throwing logic - the basic thinking tools, the Bolsheviks generations of Soviet people condemned to inferiority. However, at first no one noticed.
People for the most part ceased to prove simply because succession is no longer able to think. And the need for it was not there. Why strain your brain, if you have long been decided for you that how and what you should think.
It will take quite a bit of time, and the inability of people to think logically will be felt more acutely.
Scientists have debated passionately that logic must be returned to the school curriculum, to flesh
Stalin conducted analysis showed at the end of the war our losses would have been much less know how to talk, we consistently. And fill up the cup of Stalin's meeting of the Council of Ministers, where he, to his horror, saw that the members of the government do not hear each other (well, exactly like our modern knopkodavy). And then the father of the peoples instruction logic returned to school.
The Central Committee of the CPSU (b) in the decree "On the teaching of logic and psychology in high school" on December 3, 1946 admitted absolutely abnormal that in secondary schools are not studied logic and psychology, and found it necessary to introduce for 4 years, starting from the 1947/48 school year, the teaching of these subjects in all schools of the Soviet Union.
In accordance with this action, in
And this is where the fun begins. Although after the war logic and began to teach in the school, but also replaced the magnificent royal Povarnin new textbook. Schoolchildren were taught the new science is not accustomed to the precision of mathematics and literature teacher. By hook or by crook to turn people into "scoops".
Stalin's logic enough for it to lead the country forward, asking it the world's highest productivity. However, the leader of all peoples too trusting court philosopher and did not control them. tank sample or another aircraft he selected personally, carefully comparing with the old technology. And in this case, such comparisons are not made in violation of the order passed by him. On the one hand Stalin's order was fulfilled - the logic back into the school curriculum, and on the other - the level of teaching was driving the idea to zero. Pseudoscientists continued to spoil people's head.
Stalin died in the spring of 1953, and already the first of September the students are not found in the object schedule "logic".
Under Khrushchev in 1955 logic finally disappeared from the curriculum. First we solve operational issues, and after a couple of years engaged in the final stupefying people. A slow process, but is stable and reliable, the main thing to ask the right direction.
Under the pretext of combating congestion students logic as a subject banned, but left as a fragment in the psychology course. And then the psychology thrown out of the school curriculum.
The paradox is that in the last 90 years have studied logic in secondary schools for about 10 years, no more. And this despite the fact that logic - surprisingly compact discipline. more items in more than actually learn in
Of course, it would be foolish to argue that the absence of a curriculum discipline automatically makes fools of all students. Like it or not, science in the school curriculum has always been, but the outstanding scholars were born not more often than once in a hundred years.
And, nevertheless, the fact that the lack of logic in the school curriculum seems more than paradoxical. Wielding logic child is not taken seriously bent fingers teachers. A talk with the child on an equal footing, in the language of logic, experienced teachers are unable in principle. I'd like to see, sixty years old literature teacher quietly, without the usual hysteria and theatricality explains to children why Oblomov - a moral monster, and Tatiana Larina - a victim of its own complexes.
Currently, the logic is not a mandatory subject in school. Therefore, each school decides its own, her students need the item or not. Well, thanks at least in this. The only problem is that it is taught, to put it mildly, by the fifth point. Leaf through a few modern textbooks for junior high schools. Believe me, you'll be impressed.
But in fact, the ability to think logically can seriously help the man in your life. And live thinking person is much more interesting, but do not argue - much more difficult.
