The textbook considers engineering pedagogy as an integral part of a vast socio-cultural field, which in the course of its historical development includes both social aspects related to the transfer of experience and knowledge from the older generation to the younger, as well as technical aspects of human civilization, which increasingly affect people's lives and often make them dependent. Meets the requirements of the latest generation of federal state educational standards for higher education. It is intended for students, as well as for teachers of higher technical educational institutions undergoing advanced training. The information contained in the textbook will be interesting and useful for teachers of secondary vocational schools and engineering schools.
