Abstract

In the 21st century the situation around studying the Arctic Region has been changing rapidly, the Arctic is becoming more accessible; for instance, new possibilities of study have appeared, not only through remote methods, but also through scientific and educational expeditions in the frame of corporate flights with major resource companies as well as educational expeditions organized by the Arctic Center for Strategic Studies (NArFU). This educational project is considered to be unique both at regional and global levels, because it indudes the process of educational integration in the following areas: the integration of the international academic community, the integration of science and education, the integration of humanitarian, political and natural sciences within one project, the integration of theory and practice based on innovative approaches. On the basis of the new paradigm of modern approaches to natural-science education, for several years the project has already been training ecologists and specialist from other academic areas able to highly professionally work at international levels. The article elucidates the unique five-year pedagogical expertise, its elements may be recommended for dissemination and reproduction, for they contain very difficult and non-trivially interlinking educational and methodological approaches.

The similar experience of floating universities in various countries has been analyzed as well as the expertise of other Russian universities is given.

Scientific and research achievements and opportunities to accelerate the “Arctic floating university” project have been analyzed by defining entry points for educational possibilities and growth areas for project’s scientific complication.

Keywords

Arctic floating university, extreme scientific expedition studies, educational technologies for ecologists, ecologist on international affairs, competence-based approach in the field of the expedition researches practices of ecologists.
