Abstract: This article aims to explore Ivan Yushchyshyn’s educational ideas concerning the purpose and content of educating Ukrainian youth. It analyzes two main goals of education: practical (preparing individuals for societal life) and spiritual (cultivating moral qualities, values, and creative abilities). The focus lies on the educational ideal, national consciousness, and the Ukrainian national idea. The article examines how school textbooks in Ukrainian language, history, geography, and natural sciences contribute to educating pupils’ national consciousness. It delves into the requirements for teachers and their pivotal role in educating young people. Furthermore, it highlights the importance of cooperation between schools, families, churches, and public organizations in fostering youth patriotism. I. Yushchyshyn’s works offer valuable theoretical propositions and practical recommendations that remain relevant to contemporary educational processes.
