Biography Viktor Ivanovich

Biography Biography Viktor Ivanovich Slobodchikov was born in the year. His father died at the front, his mother died when he was very small. Until 12 years old, he lived with his grandmother, but then, due to health reasons, his grandmother was forced to send him to an orphanage. A year later, she died. The director of the orphanage, in which the future psychologist spent 5 years, was the pupil of Makarenko Semen Afanasevich Kalabalin in the “Pedagogical Poem” - Karabanov.

A year after graduation, V. Slobodchikov entered the Moscow Aviation Institute, but realized that the engineer was not his vocation, and after the 2nd year he left the institute. At 22 he entered the Psychological Department of Leningrad University. After 2 years, the famous psychologist D. Elkonin invited an energetic student to the laboratory of diagnostics of the mental development of children created by him.

From the third year, Slobodchikov studied at the correspondence department and worked in the Elkonin laboratory. The pupil of two completely different psychological schools, V. Slobodchikov early realized their general drawback - the absence of a person in the scientific concept. But, unlike many, he was not disappointed in psychology and still with respect and gratitude recalls all his teachers, but tried to make up for this shortcoming.

It was he who introduced into psychology the concept of “co-biological community”, which is based on the principle of unconsciousness and inseparability.

Later, having read religious philosophers, the Gospel, and patristic literature, he realized that this was the principle of Christ and the apostles, the Trinity, and collegiality. In the years, Slobodchikov met believing people, began to visit a religious circle. Since then, his churching began. Until now, Professor Slobodchikov believes that the principle of unconsciousness and inseparability goes beyond the church fence, permeates the whole human life.

He believes that the co-live community was both in his orphanage and in the Pionerlager "Eaglet". But to create such a community, the efforts of the person himself are necessary. In the year, V. Slobodchikov created and headed the Institute of Pedagogical Innovation of RAO. The specialists of this institute developed themselves and supported the programs developed and implemented throughout Russia to teach children with psychological characteristics up to mental retardation.

Not all dreams of Slobodchikov were destined to come true. Officials did not give the Institute of Pedagogical Innovation to become an expert institution, and in the year they generally disbanded it into several institutions. Since the year, Slobodchikov has been headed by the Institute for the Development of Preschool Education.
