Abstract:
This paper is referred to deep educational science, in which the objective reality is
associated with peculiarities of perception, how far the beliefs of scientists, emerging
stereotypes and language of science can physically and notionally present the origins
and mechanisms of personal becoming. It is very difficult to find other burning
question for humanity, on which so many arguments are focused and which forces
pedagogical community to change their opinion to the contrary so many times. Within
this framework, the life-sustaining activity of people is viewed historically as the outerinner evolving system in which the philosophical categories of biological and social
aspects are considered as the two poles between which the educational sphere is
formed. The main idea of this study is sociogenetic approach which makes it possible to
consider that the life-sustaining activity of people is a compromise solution, which can
be found by multiple considerations and manifesting as vast variety. The article gives
the grounds for the educational activity, including the initial setting of social channels
and then circulation through them among specimens of different information
modalities, establishes life-time formation of Intelligence and Personality of newly born
specimens of the humanity. Studying Materials are valuable for both methodologiststheoreticians and technologists of education.
Keywords: biological and social, external and internal, social agreements and

Introduction
1.1
Thematic justification
Today the theme of education is not only the primary and perplexed question of the
theory of pedagogics but also it is the issue of urgent practical importance. At the
present time, we have dealing with substantially different kinds of pedagogical
practices (traditional, developing, new humanitarian, religious, esoteric, etc.). Some
use developmental teaching developed by V.V. Davydov, others follow the ideas of
L.N. Tolstoy, and still others introduce the system of L.V. Zankova or advocate for
dialogue of cultures , or are enthusiastic over the Waldorf School (Lerner, 1996) .
Notwithstanding the fact that the experience of pedagogical activity is
comparable to the of human society existence in the duration, it must be admitted that
the success of pedagogy as the science and practice, in fact, are very modest. The
results, obtained to this date turn out to be disproportionately poor, and of even greater
importance is the fact that, they are surprisingly miscellaneous. There were too many
illusory
hopes
and
keen
disappointments
resulted
from
them
during
the
implementation of various experimental and experimentally proven scientific fields.
These are the small part of the long list of innovations: research approach, problem
method, partially-research teaching methods, algorithmization, programmed education,
theory of optimization of the education and bringing-up process, cooperative
pedagogy, etc. without mentioning of the results of the implementation of experimental
materials of individual teachers and associates (experience of teachers in Lipetsk,
Rostov, Kazan, Moscow, etc .; ideas of Shatalov, Ilyin, Lysenkova, Potapova,
Khazankina etc). Relatively small amount and kind of random nature of the most
important results (in the presence of millions of the organizers of the pedagogical
process and thousands of its researchers), so frequent ups and downs of the theoretical
construction forces to raise a question: Are the efforts of many outstanding researches
set on the wrong track?
Weak points of pedagogy and educational sphere, detected by us, are not strictly
national (Hopefully it will mitigate professional discomfort) Thus, the study of the work
of Stanley Pogrov Reforming the reformers (Pogrov, 1996) and many others (Coombs,
1968; A Nation at Risk, 1983; Ellis and Fouts, 1993) made it clear that Russian and
American education was faced with the same problems. The scientific and pedagogical
thought in our country and in the USA is affected by the same problem of
approximation and fragmentarity; the theory and practice of education are deformed by
the abundance of fleeting, individual and superficial educational projects. In both
hemispheres of the Earth pedagogical myths have demonstrated its universal nature

and today they hide the limitation of vision of the reformed area and the nonpossession of its nerve. Hopelessness and inescapable longing for true scientific
thorough insight into the pedagogical phenomena, which are clearly visible in the
named article, bear evidence of acute and still not satisfied demand of the teaching staff
for serious fundamental theory of education and principal education technology
resulting from it.
So, today we see the limited nature of pedagogical sciences and note the
developing gap between the naturally vast opportunities of the child, developed over
the course of history, and the greatest achievements of humanity, which are out of
reliable link, technology of inclusion of each individual to this wealth and
augmentation of it. Each individual cannot retrace the same path traveled by humanity
starting from the zero point, carry out different types of activities in those historical
sequence and amount, which existed in reality. The life is too short for that.
Fundamental and general theory of human education is required.

Methodological framework
2.1
Logical form vs. analysis
1.
What can join us in this situation? We offer to find the answer to this question:
What is the subject of education? To our astonishment, unfortunately, this issue has not
been raised yet and has not been pronounced unambiguously. The subject of education
is substituted and identified with the acquisition of knowledge and skills or with
cultural appropriation, activities formation, competencies or personality and higher
mental functions... In other words, generally, it represented by its external social
constituent, which, undoubtedly, is very important. But still it is only a half of its entire
essence. As a result, scientists, observing only this half, note the gradual emergence of
the biological evolution of biological individual to person and transformation of his
initial actions into variety of activities. So, the formation of a person identified only with
the development and diversification of the behavior of the subject. Also, the formation
of some of his activities and, currently, competencies with certain parameters, actually
starts to mean the formation of the person with the appropriate qualities. Although in
this case biological basis of the subject of education is not denied, but its properties
and continuity with the social superstructure are not considered in a proper manner.
2.
Based on the biosocial nature and integrity of the person, it is necessary to
distinguish the formation of education subject and the specificity of its functioning.
Many scientists at all times often noted that thinking doesn’t think, memory doesn’t
memorize, and imagination doesn’t imagine and accomplish certain highest
European Journal of Education Studies - Volume 1 │ Issue 2 │ 2016
135
Filarit Sh. Teregulov –
EDUCATION IS A PLEDGE OF FUTURE
psychological functions. But something kept them from recognition of the appearance
of some truly human organ, performing all of these functions. Most likely, this
recognition was impeded by the life-time nature of its formation, as it is still considered
that all human organs can be formed only antenatally, by biological inheritance. In
other words, in is necessary recognize that the main subject of education is life-time
formation of intelligence organ in each individual. This problem faced humanity at
the dawn of its history, and today it is also of the most immediate interest.
Many facts point to life-time and biosocial nature of formation of these organ:
Comparison of sections of the cortex cerebri of the child brain in the first days, months
and years of life, the experimental data of Penfield, psycho-social analysis of the
behavior of Mowgli children, etc. Opposite phenomenon may be designated as
evidences of this fact: This organ may fail to function during the life, for example, as a
result of Alzheimer disease.
3.
How this innovation was made possible? The fact is that the evolution carried
out an experiment on a broad front of interoperability of living matter with objective
reality. Animals obtained different mass and sizes - from microscopic to giant, were
given a different set of receptors with different sensitivity thresholds, fantastic range of
brain and nerve fibers. Animals variety of most diverse types reclaimed water, land, air
became predators or parasites, reptiles or autotrophic. Their bodies are covered with
shell, scales, fur, hair, cuspid tooths and horns grew. Different number of limbs was
tested as organs of movement. It should be noted that, all this diversity was built on a
single cellular basis.
Evolutionary perspective of such a large number of animal species could occur
only through the lens of the imbedded bodies: place a particular species in the animal
world hierarchy depends on the three components and on their balance (Teregulov,
2001). First, it depends on outer body, on its interactability with the environment and
acquisition of perceptual data; at the second, it depends on the range of inner bodies,
primarily, on the brain: its structure, speedwork, capability of perceptual data
processing. The third component is the developed neural network, the speed of
conduction of the impulses in both directions. But considering the brain is specific
viscus, we still have to admit that our body is also made of a variety of other viscera
and systems performing other specific functions. However, it is possible to allocate the
common to them outside body - skin and musculoskeletal frame with built-in organs of
senses, as well as with the organs of movement and manipulation.
When one viscera and systems of our organism perform only service functions
(nutrition, oxygenation, detoxication etc.), then our outer body, predominantly, starts to
play a role of intermediary between the brain and the objective reality. The outer
European Journal of Education Studies - Volume 1 │ Issue 2 │ 2016
136

EDUCATION IS A PLEDGE OF FUTURE
body passes impulses through the organs of senses and sensations of contact interaction
of the whole body with the objects of environment in the neocortex. As a result the
latter becomes deformed (rather, it becomes completely formed), fixes in itself the
properties and relations of the reflected reality, begins to operate them and thereby
starts to transform to the intelligence organ. To the contrary, generalization and all sorts
of
conclusions , done in the neocortex by our outer body can lead to the
transformation of the surrounding environment, to the further development of the
reality. The reality, thereby, performs self-expression through human beings and
prepares its subsequent development, its transfer to a new form of matter movement
(Teregulov, 2002).
4.
The last thesis of self-expression requires discovery of conditions and
consequences. The reason for the leap of human from his hominoid ancestors,
according to Teilhard de Chardin, is the increase of consciousness and emergence of
reflection. Hominization, ultimately, comes down to the question of the better brain.
But how did this cerebral perfectioning take place
how could it have functioned
unless a whole series of other conditions had not been realized together at exactly the
same time? If the being the human was born of had not been a biped, its hands would
not have been free in time enough to relieve the jaws of their prehensile function, and as
a result the thick band of maxillary muscles that imprisoned the skull would not have
been relaxed. Thanks to bipedalism freeing the hands the brain could enlarge; and
thanks to it at the same time the eyes, drawing near to each other on the diminished
face, could begin to converge, and fix their gaze on what the hands took hold of,
brought near, and, in every sense of the word, presented: the very act of reflection,
exteriorized! (Teilhard de Chardin, 1987).
The human gained a double opportunity: On the one hand, like all living beings
he is able to adapt to nature, and on the other - to adapt the nature to him, which
required formation of certain intellectual and practical means. The intellectual evolution
of human is connected with the appearance of additional regions of the brain, with the
expansion of the internal plane, and with the appearance of its special experimental site,
modeling platform, the genetic combination.
5.
Subsequent stages of intellectual evolution are associated with the close
cooperation of brains, a synthesis of the consciousness, which becomes possible only
when the internal brain processes outside are brought outside. Thus, the external social
plane starts to fill with a variety of individual movements of subject, which participated
in the sensorimotor reflection of objective reality. By the individual movements is
implied the voluntary and involuntary movements of the body and limbs also having
the great number of sensors, which greatly enriching involuntary sensorimotor

137
Filarit Sh. Teregulov –
EDUCATION IS A PLEDGE OF FUTURE
reflection of the environment, synthesize with it. As a result, it gains an opportunity to
bring out internal sensory impressions of objects of reality for a new round of
individual and collective reflection. Thus, gestures, posture, facial expressions, voice
and other bodily movements were the first external social channels and conditional
codes of various phenomena, objects, environments and actions with them. Processes of
encoding and decoding, externalization and internalization, coagulation and
deployment, generalization and metallization, the invention of various means of
processing and channels of human phenomena circulation became relevant.
The evolution of intelligence was significantly accelerated by the invention of
means of fixing of subjective manifestations on external media (tablets, clay tablets,
birchbarks, papyrus, leather, paper, etc.) made by people, as a result of which the latter
moved into the category of social viruses. Hereupon human phenomena gained an
opportunity to be stored continuously in coded form in the external plane and
unchanged, to be perceived by the significant number of people and to revive in their
brain as social genes. The viral form of storage or social memory allowed developing of
experience and content of objective reality reflection from generation to generation,
producing of repeated generalizations, forming of many social genomes. All this
provides evidence of the formation of the new external social inheritance channel in
the human population.
Thus, V. S. Styopin, the leading philosopher of the country, academician of the
Russian Academy of Sciences stated, and again reminds: In the life of society culture
performs functions similar to functions of genes in biological entities. It is a kind of a
genome according to which society is reproduced and changed” (emphasis added F.T.) (Styopin, 2014). The concept of culture covers everything that people touch
throughout the course of human history. Thus the genetic approach to all the
phenomena of nature, including the educational sphere, becomes not just a tempting
matter, but the fundamental principle of its formation and study. Not without reason
veteran scientists-teachers accept this idea of the philosopher (Asadullin, 2013;
Zapesotsky, 2010). And it requires the translation of the existing conceptual construct of
pedagogy into the language of social genetics (Teregulov, 2015).
6.
What is the sense and mechanism of the subsequent genetic transformations?
First of all, it lies in the fact that by a combination of the three mentioned variables the
initial diversity of the animal world was time tested and achieved. And its imagination
was exhausted by this at this stage of the movement of matter. At a later stage, by virtue
of sexual reproduction each individual gained internal biological diversity in a variety
of species. But also, in this case the evolution acted wisely by implementing dyad of
biological and social through the triad. Intermediate option of biosocial inheritance is
European Journal of Education Studies - Volume 1 │ Issue 2 │ 2016
138
Filarit Sh. Teregulov –
EDUCATION IS A PLEDGE OF FUTURE
the so-called instinctive behavior, which is the same for the entire population, but
accumulated by combined efforts of many previous generations, fixed and stored in the
brain, in the ancient and old sections of it, and transmitted by sexual reproduction. The
instinctive experience of the animals is the program of liefs for them, in which
environmental motivators and the organism responses are rigidly bound. Although this
program is transmitted by sexual reproduction, it comes to life and develops only after
the birth of specie, after meeting with the environment, during its interaction with its
ecology. As we can see, the intermediate option of inheritance is an essential part and
accretion of biological genome. And against this background prepared by the evolution
a quantum leap is happen with ancestor of human: Only required biotic substrate
(neocortex) had been reconstituted by sexual reproduction. And the formation and
filling with its current operative interactive program with the changing reality was
delayed by the time after birth, becoming life-time phenomenon, a social process.
7.
Within this framework, the importance of genetic processes, both biological and
social, lies in the fact that representatives of biologic species Homo sapiens is
distributed through the vast educational and socio-cultural space. And this distribution,
as a double-edged weapon, becomes a major problem of mankind, its area of
bifurcation. On the one hand, just due to named diversity and variety of species, the
processes of adaption, accommodation and complement of each other are objectively
occurred; due to this the latter, differentiating, gain the opportunity to have a different
social statuses, occupy a corresponding social niches. This also creates the conditions for
their combination and formation of a new and higher community - a single body of
Humanity. So, instead of an indefinite and implicit change according to V.S. Styopin,
vector of development of society appears, and this is estimated by us as a positive
trend. However, due to the huge variety of visions of species about the world, about
themselves and similar, due to the beliefs of each individual in its rightness, the abovementioned processes of accommodation may not lead to the desired consensus. And
quite the contrary, they can create many trouble spots that ultimately can lead to the
loss of control of the society over the situation. And this is exceptionally undesirable
tendency for the progressive development of humanity.
On the human level, the basic trend of the development of matter by combining
and isolating structural formations reaches a maximum, and the range of their
interactions in this case extremely expands. Initial attempts of association of species
manifested itself as a desire to capture each other, and to conquer others, and attempts
of isolation - as assertion of its independence, the formation of selfness. Definitely, the
subsequent settlement of these opposing trends required to achieve a number of
compromises on a wide range of interactions by individuals. For example, this includes
European Journal of Education Studies - Volume 1 │ Issue 2 │ 2016
139
Filarit Sh. Teregulov –
EDUCATION IS A PLEDGE OF FUTURE
a voluntary self-containment, the delegation of certain functions to each other, i.e. the
pursuance of conscious solving of problems by the set of problems by means of
multiple mutual approvals. And this insight proceeded by a seas of blood, which can be
confirmed by many historical facts - the endless wars and revolutions, happened in all
countries. However, even today the seas of blood continue to be a precondition for
development of many socially significant social agreements.
8.
Even in a social and intellectual level the diversity manifest itself in a widest
range. This also includes sharp madness of religious dissensions and ethnic conflicts,
apotheosis of the human spirit in the form of ingenious discoveries, scientific foresights,
masterpieces of literature, art, architecture, etc. Apparently, a young and assertive
sociogenome now starts to crowd out conservative biogenome in consequence of which
the problem of conservation of the species Homo sapiens has been relegated to the
sidelines, which manifest itself by cruel mutual obliteration of people in wars and
conflicts. This raise grounded fears that this trend could threaten the humanity with
self-destruction. But we, however, suppose that this critical cannibalistic period is the
transient process, which after a number of fluctuations should bring civilization to a
new stable mode of existence and development.
Existing counterintuitive situation is explained definitely by the inclusion (or
superstructure) of sociogenome into the biological shield, or their simultaneous
operation in humanity. Therefore, when one engaged in peaceful work and search for
new discoveries, the other at the same time slaughter fellow humans (Ukraine, North
Africa, the Middle East, Syria, Afghanistan, Korean Peninsula and its surrounding
states, where now tension has arisen, which is able to transform into the apocalypse).
But still, conscious humanistic social line of human development must prevail through
the history.
9.
Against this gloomy background, another one specificity of social inheritance
development appeared. On a scale of sociogenome formation, our individual life is too
short, because just initiation of initial social elements required not dozens, but hundreds
of generations. At the final stage the completeness of the sociogenome formation and
the degree its reproduction by the species is increases so that the successful functioning
of humanity communicates is directly connected with the responsible attitude to life of
every person. It follows from here that intentional or unintentional deployment of
certain insufficiently coordinated fragments by species may result in apocalyptic
consequences for humanity as a whole. Due to various miscounts, delicate balance in
the trends of individualization and association of people on the basis of strongly formed
sociogenome can get out of control, and the accumulated power of sociogenome can
cruelly attack the pyramid to reached concordances. That is why the most powerful
European Journal of Education Studies - Volume 1 │ Issue 2 │ 2016
140

empires and civilizations, which greatness is reminded by fragments of genetic material
n the form of social remains of Atlantis buried under water unearthed ruins of Troy, etc.
And each new civilization is born on the ashes of the previous from the ground up,
without any opportunity to continue by taking recipes of sociogenome formation.
10. Why have instinct for self-preservation of people been disturbed, and whether it
is possible to overcome this historical cyclicism? Is it possible that achieved variety of
species is still not enough for the harmonious existence of humanity as a whole? And is
there some opposite process that can neutralize the disorder of humanity and direct
its energy in the right direction? How to make good the deficiency of responsible
attitude of each person to his own and social life, deficiency of education, learning and
training?
We, the representatives of the biosocial form of movement, appear in the middle
of a matter coagulation session and then leave this session, not waiting until the end of
the show . Our passion and feelings, any types of life in society and even a total
absence of humanity mean little to the universal circulation of matter, are does not
impede its evolution. The civilization is primarily essential to us and no one else. This is
the real time challenge and in these latter days, it becomes common to speak about it
rhetorically, but we do not understand the true reasons of its occurrence, and even
more, we do not realize the ways of its resolution. A great blame for this lies with the
fundamental science, which up until now have not been able to decipher
unambiguously the origins of the matter movement and its coagulation in the universe.
Therefore,
three elephants on three turtles
and many different religious
teachings are still appeared in the minds of many inhabitants of the Earth as a basis of
the world view. Philosophers and sociologists, getting stuck in disputes about the
existence of not only earthly life, but also on the after world life, cannot convince people
of ephemerality of such considerations. They still have not revealed the deep biosocial
essence of humanity, so science cannot appeal each of the alive do not hurry to leave
this world in order to pass into better one, and what is more, taking with them
hundreds of thousands of innocent fellow humans who hold other humanitarian
values. But the modern achievements of technical ideas sometime may provide an
opportunity for these sub-humans to destroy humanity....
The hope of mankind survival only associated with the development of
education of the population and the formation of the effective organ of intelligence
of people (including the elite, and country leadership), which objectively and
impartially reflects reality and signals about the harmfulness of any alternative of
life in society apart from harmony and creativity.

Conclusion and lessons for a subsequent analysis
3.1
Pedagogical consequences of biosocial diversity of people
1.
So we are faced with the fact that in contrast to animals functioning five organ of
senses of people (which are the result of the entire preceding human history - Karl
Marx) is supplemented by the sixth one - specific integrative organ. By processing and
summarizing incoming sensory impressions, it is able to direct the organs of senses at
reflection of those sides of reality which in a different situation could not be able to
become the object of reflection. Thus, the possibilities of reflection of surrounding
environment for them are constantly expanding and advancing. It is necessary to
recognize that the cognitive abilities of human organs of senses are limited and cannot
compete with the relevant abilities of different species of animals dog’s power of scent,
sense of sight of falcon, feeling of the magnetic field by termites, the perception of
infrared rays by a rattlesnake, perception of ultrasound by bats and dolphins, etc.).
However, the resolving (threshold) abilities of our organs of senses are developed as far
as it is necessary and sufficient for person to be able to freely orientate and act in the
outside world which is commensurate with him. Intelligence organ by composing full
picture of the environment, including images of its carrier and similar creatures in it of
incoming sensory impressions of different modalities, allows a person to develop
sophisticated programs of their behavior, comparable with dynamically developing
situations of reality and to solve various problems and meet the challenges of time. In
other words, it is designed to implement practically specific, truly human, intellectual
actions. This is the difference between man and the animal world and great advantage
over it, which put a human at the top of the pyramid of all living organisms in the
Earth.
2.
Specificity of the social level of inheritance lies in the fact that with the best will
in the world it is impossible to form two intelligence organs with completely identical
set and structural association of social genes. It is impossible, foremost, because the
social inheritance system in itself is turned inside-out, to the objective reality and to the
social environment, which are constantly in the dynamics and progress. Secondly,
initially, reflection and exchange of feelings of each representative of the human race
begins spontaneously, in specific family conditions, and only then, it continues in a
quite orderly manner in educational institutions. Even for twins grown in the same
conditions it is impossible to organize a fully synchronous perception of the
environment and ensure totally identical linking of social genes. Biogenome of human
also guard the diversity. By means of its unique set, small differences in the internal
metabolic processes, for example, in velocity of impulse conduction in brain it the
European Journal of Education Studies - Volume 1 │ Issue 2 │ 2016
142
Filarit Sh. Teregulov –
EDUCATION IS A PLEDGE OF FUTURE
establish a framework for subsequent diversity also at the level of social inheritance
(genome). Hereupon, the unique set of social genes, i.e. sociogenome, forms in each
subject of social inheritance.
3.
At this point it is important to note that the individual centers of intelligence
differ from each other in a particular ways of reflection of the environment, and so they
are able to complement and enrich each other both in horizontal and vertical directions
of the human dimension in the chain of generations, provide an opportunity to study
the reality intensively, summarily compose superbrain or superintelligence of the
Humanity. Intensive study is a simplified framework of the social life of people and the
upward tendency of civilization. Obviously, the educational process must take into
account these consistent patterns of human becoming, including a diversity of ways of
formation of intelligence organs in species and inequality of their functioning.
According to this, the fundamental conclusion can be made: biosocial diversity should
be perceived not as an aggravating circumstance, but as an extremely important
condition for further differentiation of people and the prerequisite for their
association into a single social organism, which forms a single body of humanity.
Also, it should be remembered that genetic diversity is associated with the
concept of unification. The universe is arranged in such a way that and diversity can be
achieved by combination from narrow set of well-defined genetic bases. And this
enables the selection of peculiar set of universal education bases and peculiar order of
their combination by each individual. This will manifest itself as individual diversity of
education content, the different rate of its acquisition, development of certain socially
important tendencies of the child. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out simultaneously
searches of the universal core of education for young people, generalized competencies
and other unitizing procedures, which can accumulate individual manifestations and
social induced preferences.
The following outstanding example demonstrates the individual manifestation
of the diversity of educational sphere: A resident of the city of Jinan, Shandong
Province of China went to school for the first time when she was 102 years old,
Ananova reports with reference to the local newspaper Qilu Evening Post. Chinese
woman Ma Xiuxian explained her decision as she never had the opportunity to do it
before whereas it was necessary to provide 9 children, and then grandchildren with
higher education. One of the educational institutions, which got to know about her
dream from the interview of local newspaper, provided her an opportunity to attend
the first class. Thanks to this, the 102-year old Chinese woman becomes the first class
student for one day. After a day at school, Ma Xiuxian thanked the teachers and
classmates, and promised to study hard.

Or: 97-year-old Australian Allan Stewart secured the title of the oldest high school
graduate after earning of a master’s degree in medicine at the University of SCU in New
South Wales. He undertook his first degree in dentistry in the Sydney University of
Stewart in 1936. Then he earned doctoral degree in dental surgery in Chicago. After
that, Stewart had worked within the specialty in London, Sydney and in populated
areas in the north of New South Wales, and then when he was 90 year old he has
decided to enter the university again. Stewart believes that getting a new professional
education will be enough for him. But according to him, he looked the same way after
receiving the third degree in 2006.
There are examples of individual manifestation of education of the other extrem.
English prodigy Arran Fernandez, born in 1995, was educated at home and passed the
examination for gaining the General Certificate of Secondary Education in the age of
five. In October 2010, he was accepted into Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge University.
Then he became the youngest Cambridge University student. Or Gregory Smith,
another child prodigy: He was born in 1990 and could read at age of two. He entered
university at the age of 10.

Due to the huge number of species and their dispersion across the globe it will
never be able to cover them with a single shell and create a full-fledged biological
organism. Functions of coordination of people and their differentiation within the
humanity are gradually assumed by sociogenome, which began to circulate between
them. Sociogenome takes on two functions: Completion of the human formation and at
the same time forming-up of the body of humanity as a whole. This implies the solution
two tasks: the final formation of the intelligence organ in each individual and
embedding of all of them into the body of humanity. While the first task is the sphere of
education, the second is a social problem. Integration of individuals in certain social
niches of humanity is performed through professional education. From this point the
clear differentiation and orientation of sociogenome into three spheres becomes
possible: general education, professional education and social activities. Education is
aimed at formation of universal social base, the professional education is focused on the
occupation of particular social niche by the subject, and various social activities ensure
the harmonious functioning of the relevant services and organs of the body of
humanity.
Infinite public education reforms are eloquent of the intensity of the search for
mature sociogenome and tensions occurred due to it. Once again coordinating the
various aspects of life (interests of the individual, families, communities, production
and the state), we try to find the content of general secondary education. By
implementing a great number of generations of educational standards, we are
European Journal of Education Studies - Volume 1 │ Issue 2 │ 2016
144
Filarit Sh. Teregulov –
EDUCATION IS A PLEDGE OF FUTURE
approximate of professional education and higher education to the current needs. At
the same time, by establishing the common education space, we coordinate the general
requirements for core human competencies.
5.
The innovation formed during the life determines the degree of catholicity of the
individual and level of his needs and abilities. Individuals are able to become cross
functional subjects of activity only by virtue of targeted and adequate education.
However, the education sphere has not been given to our ancestors in the finished and
complete form; it gradually appeared in the course of human activity through the
generations, by infinite trials and errors as an external social phenomenon. And we
cannot say that to the present date, it has reached the mature form, rely upon it by
searching only by empiricism. The effective development of the educational sphere,
pedagogical science and practice outside sociogenome is absolutely impossible.
Sociogenome, being the younger brother of biogenome, as the development
progresses, takes all function of biogenome, but applying it to the whole humanity. In
other words, design of the body of humanity, nomenclature, structure, composition,
functional duties of organs and services designed to ensure the steady existence and
development of people as a new community, begin to be determined and will be
formed by sociogenome, including the conscious control of the number of species, the
duration of their active functioning, the frequency of renovation and many other
metabolic processes, i.e. including all the tasks which were executed by biogenome in
relation to the morphology and physiology of body of the individual. This pair of
genomes is a way, a mechanism of self-preservation, self-reproduction and selfdevelopment of the humanity (Teregulov, 2014).
Summary
From all has been said in relation to our educational problem it follows that the
formation of sociogenome and development of ideal body of humanity today cannot be
considered a solved satisfactory. Many important internal organs of the humanity are
only at the stage of actualization and empirical designing. First of all, the individuals
and their communities, suggested as a joint brain and designed to strengthen the unity
and to ensure the normal development of the body of humanity, reflected the
environment, objective reality and basically biosocial form of matter movement with
very intense and serious distortions. As a result, the body of humanity today is riven by
ethnic and religious dissensions, social and domestic conflicts and wars. Systematic
renewals of individuals, biological reproduction of the population as the cells of the
body of humanity are neglected. Their uncontrolled reproduction quite often leads to
malignant growth. Social stereotypes (genomes), formed back in in the infancy of

mankind turned out to be strong. This circumstance retains the educational process and
relevant professional groups at a low level of functioning and does not allow
development of sound social status of newly born biological species, which henceforth
facilitate the integration of them into the body of humanity, occupation of vacant social
niches. Stable functioning of the body of humanity is not supported by as balanced and
adequate nutrition. Immunoprotective mechanisms remain undeveloped; killer cells
(social mutants) have the opportunity to easily enter into any organs of the body.
Organs of recognition, correction and disposal, guided by myths and distorted notions
of the development of society, do not promote the timely purification of the humanity
organism from social toxins, mutants and other negative phenomena.
Empirical attempts to solve this problem within the framework of particular
countries and continents are inevitably face showdown between them, which
sometimes leads to confrontation and mutual destruction. Unrestrainable individualism
and mechanical collectivism, abstract reasoning on the interaction of the individual and
society, on the advantages of the communistic or capitalistic arrangement of the latter,
as we can see, are far from the true understanding and constructive resolution is out of
the framework of sociogenome. The Earth is able to grow and support only one body of
humanity. What is important is that this fact will be understood in proper time.
The destiny of humanity and its further advance are associated with the
development of fundamental science and specifically with the deep reflection of
biosocial form of matter movement. How soon the generalized ways of reflection of the
world, effective methods of information processing and conscious use of the latest in
management decisions will be found. If the empiricism and eclecticism will continue to
be preached, including the prosperity of so-called pluralism, tolerance, and indulgence
for the barbarism and ignorance under the mask of democracy and artistic freedom,
then the subsequent development of science will become more formless, vague and
random. Life in the society, in which natural biosocial differentiation is ignored and
pseudo-equality and permissiveness are preached, has no future. Empiricism and the
variety of opinions regarding the same subject are useful only at the early stages of the
world reflection (because just for selection of the preferable opinions from a variety of
declared ones democratic procedures were invented!), but in the future it becomes a
stumbling block in the way of arising theories. In the process of learning of the
educational sphere, it is necessary to appropriately rise to the theoretical,
methodological level. Breakthrough, primarily in the pedagogic sphere, in the
education of a responsible attitude to own and public life is required. Perception of the
unity of the world, its essence and obligatoriness for all people will ensure the transition
from the crowd-democracy to science dictatorship.

EDUCATION IS A PLEDGE OF FUTURE
State Board of Education received a task to make the Russian school one of the best in
the world, for which purpose it is necessary to join all levels of government, political
and social forces. As noted by V. V. Putin, the President of the country: Modern school
must keep up with the times, and sometime be in advance of it in order to prepare
children for dynamic, fast-changing life, teach them to acquire knowledge and skills, to
think creatively and freely. This requires an effective mechanism for continuous
updating of the content of general education.
Modern culture should include the idea of unending developing life of humanity
maintained by the continuous change of generations, where each individual is involved
in the transmission of the initial, strict and sufficiently conservative biological
hereditary information, as well as in the exploration and the subsequent developing of
the second heritable program of the social life. The purpose of life of the particular
person is ensure the integrity of an extended, complex human being and personally
carry the burden of further development of not only the person, but the whole
civilization.
Pedagogy, which abstracts from the study of the intelligence organ
(consciousness) functioning and forming during the life, both internal and external
reasons of its formation, has the nature of a faceless sociology. A creative solution of the
stated problems of education, purposeful aspiration for the truth is always a new
approach, a new vision, a new scientific way of thinking. So, the answer to the question
of the origin of man in the world and the role of the educational process in its becoming
determines our view of ourselves and our place in the universe. And it significantly
influence on our decisions, self-actualization, feelings and actions.
