Education, Spirituality and Value Orientations of Adolescents.

      Аннотация: The study of values and value orientations is important in the adolescent age. Values are particularly affecting the orientation of the person and their active social position. On the other hand, scientific researches pay scarce attention to the development of spirituality and religiousness among the adolescents. By being expelled from educational discourse and practice of science and secularism, spirituality has remained insufficiently studied as a feature that develops the educational process. There is also a lack of theoretical approach to the study of the nature and structure of the spiritual and moral qualities among students in adolescence based on whether religious education and ethics are included in their educational process or these subjects are not involved in the type of their education. Hence, this paper deals with the study of spirituality, religiosity and value orientations of adolescents. The obtained research findings and the presented theoretical findings suggest that the type of education makes a difference in the extent of religious expression and spiritual development, as well as the type of values that will be perceived as significant by adolescents.
