METHODOLOGY OF TEACHING PUPILS IN THE SPIRIT OF UNIVERSAL HUMAN VALUES BASED ON A CULTURAL STUDIES APPROACH (IN THE PROCESS OF TEACHING FOREIGN LANGUAGES)
Main Article Content
Abstract
The modern educational paradigm emphasizes not only academic excellence but also the formation of moral and ethical character in pupils. Teaching foreign languages offers a unique opportunity to integrate cultural awareness with the promotion of universal human values such as tolerance, empathy, respect, and cooperation. This article explores the methodology of incorporating a cultural studies approach in foreign language instruction to nurture these values. Practical strategies, such as content integration, intercultural communication exercises, and project-based learning, are discussed with the aim of creating a more humanistic, globally competent student body. In Uzbekistan, where educational reforms are aligning with international standards, the integration of universal human values into foreign language teaching—especially through a cultural studies approach—is seen as a vital component of holistic education.
