The State of Pedagogical Research on Educating Students on the Basis of National and Spiritual Values

This paper presents a comparative analysis of how the issue of educating students on the basis of national and spiritual values is addressed in selected pedagogical and psychological sources. It examines the views of Abdulla Avloniy and N. Egamberdiyeva, recent local studies on students' spiritual values and national identity, S. Schwartz's theory of values, and a meta-analysis of service-learning in higher education. The sources are grouped according to their subject of study, pedagogical contribution, and the nature of their evidence. On the basis of this analysis, clarifying conceptual boundaries, adapting diagnostic assessment to the local context, and examining practical behaviour and the sustainability of outcomes are proposed as directions for future research.
