Abstract

The formation of an innovative personality puts on the agenda the rethinking of the modern philosophy of education, the individual and institutional trajectories of which would make it possible to provide a holistic education, to take into account the need to develop all dimensions of the identity of the individual. In view of such tasks, the modern educational environment attracts attention, the development of which is important to carry out taking into account different planes of personality development - socio-cultural, psychological, material, informational, security. In solving the tasks of improving the modern educational environment, the idea of a holistic education of the individual, proposed by Renaissance humanists, has a significant scientific and practical potential.

The purpose of the article: to analyze the possibilities of developing a modern educational environment using the potential of artificial intelligence from the perspective of a holistic approach. Our task is to reveal the possibilities of integrating artificial intelligence into the educational environment, which is important to organize taking into account the idea of a holistic education of the individual.

Research methods: the solution of the tasks of this study is based on a complex of methods, both general theoretical and special. Along with the use of analysis, systematization, explanation, comparison, interpretation, special methods were of great importance: the method of historical and pedagogical reconstruction, the method of historical and pedagogical comparative studies, etc.

Results. The study proves that the development of the educational environment according to the criteria of holistic education of the individual makes it possible to direct not only pedagogical goals and objectives, but also the entire institutional and organizational and pedagogical mechanism to achieve this humanistic mission. The educational environment creates the necessary pedagogical space for the successful mastery of not only the cognitive component, but also the assimilation of values, patterns of behavior, skills of social interaction, etc. It is revealed that the concept of holistic education defines a number of criteria for the development of a modern educational environment, which constitute a set of features and indicators that allow assessing the effectiveness, quality and compliance of the educational environment with modern requirements of society, technologies and educational standards. Among the modern criteria, the optimal educational environment should include: accessibility, safety, psycho-emotional climate, workspace, interactivity and technologicality, flexibility and adaptability, professional development of teachers, effectiveness, openness and partnership, compliance with modern educational concepts. It is noted that educational transformations in the early Modern period, which were conditioned by the idea of holistic education of the personality, can be quite reasonably compared with modern educational changes brought to life by the emergence of artificial intelligence technologies, which will significantly affect the organization of the educational space. It is noted that the integration of artificial intelligence into the educational process will significantly enhance the possibilities of its improvement from the point of view of the idea of ​​holistic education of the personality.

Conclusions. It is stated that it is important to integrate the pedagogical potential of artificial intelligence into various dimensions of the educational environment - social, psychological, pedagogical and informational. It is proven that artificial intelligence contributes to the creation of a more effective, accessible and innovative educational space. From the personalization of learning and the automation of routine tasks to data analysis and the creation of interactive educational materials. It is noted that in the context of digital transformation, artificial intelligence opens up new opportunities not only for improving the educational environment at all levels, but also for countering the educational information war. It is concluded that artificial intelligence technologies are of great importance for improving the educational environment according to the criteria of holistic education of the individual, allowing the development of various dimensions of the educational space.
