Abstract

The article covers the problem of teenagers’ meaning of life values in theory and practice. "Meaning of life values" are interpreted as a system of generalized aspirations related to the individuals’ life that characterize their spiritual and moral self-concept, the search for their own life purpose and appropriate lifestyle, which is fulfilled through behaviour, activities and communication. The concept of developing teenagers’ meaning of life values includes methodological, theoretical, and practical levels. The modern process of developing teenagers’ meaning of life values is based on systemic, synergetic, axiological, humanistic, personality oriented, competency-based scientific approaches. Research methods such as analysis, generalization, surveys, questionnaires, interviews, ethical conversations, pedagogical observation were used to demonstrate the changes in developing teenagers’ meaning of life values and show the advantages of applied pedagogical conditions, forms and methods.
