Methodological approaches and principles for the formation of students’ social competence in professional music colleges

Abstract

The article reveals the essence and significance of methodological approaches and principles for the formation of social competence among students of professional music colleges. It is substantiated that the development of social competence is a strategic objective of contemporary art education, as the level of this competence determines the professional mobility, communicative culture, and social maturity of future musicians. The study identifies the leading methodological approaches – systemic, genetic, humanistic, subject-activity, competence-based, axiological, and acmeological – and outlines the key principles ensuring their implementation within the educational process.
