The paper provides the authors’ view-point on the opportunities of integrated processes (IP) as innovative efforts in investigating methodological and technological aspects of modern education. The basic claim in this paper is that the integrated processes in education have to reflect both humanitarian and natural approaches, used in teaching new generation, because traditional activities cannot incorporate the wide repertoire of development activities found in everyday life of man. A continuing interest in investigating different aspects of modern education concerns educational results from the view-point of efficacy, psychological balance, and stability. Having spent much of the past twenty years doing research on various aspects of IP in modern education — in schools, at universities, and retraining courses — the authors came to the conclusion that integrated approach to education as a whole phenomenon, may be considered as one of the most effective ways to create innovative educational space for humanitarian activities of students. Humanities and scientific knowledge, may seem, on the surface, to have little in common, but looking beyond the ‘disciplinary dazzle’ of superficial differences, we found that either of these two groups, and other groups, all behave in accordance with the same unwritten rules — to define national identity of a pedagogue in the way of communicative and language skills. Thus, while providing humanitarian activities for students we have to collaborate with all groups of pedagogues, for example, with naturalists, in terms of confident communication on different subjects and disciplines of both Arts and Humanities, and Natural Sciences.

Keywords: innovations in education, integration, humanitarian activities, cultural self-determination and self-realization, development situations, development tasks.
