The thesis aims to recognize and reveal roundly and profoundlythe characteristics of education modernization in Russia, and to clarify the mechanism forpromoting and realization of the education modernization in Russia. This study has veryimportant theoretical and practical values.This paper is divided into seven sections.The first part is the introduction. It introduces why choose the topics and thesignificance of this topics, literature reviews, concepts definition, the objective, intent andmethods of this studies.The first chapter discusses on the theoretical basis, and demonstrate comprehensivelythe objective necessity and the realistic basis of regional diversity pattern of the educationmodernization. Based on the System Theory, the education modernization can be seen as apolyhedron, and different countries and regions has its different development stages. It is notbalanced in terms of the growth of education modernity, which leads to the differentcharacteristics in the process of education modernization. Based on the modernization theory,the modernization of education has many common characteristics, but the developmentmode is diversed, and the process is polymorphic. There is no one global model ofmodernization. Based on the institutional change theory, education reform or educationmodernization is the process of education system change or innovation. In fact, the interestsof education and the institutionalization of distribution make the process of changeextraordinarily complexly. In terms of regional development theory, education as a form ofhuman social activities, education system as a subsystem of society, its development mustappear regional characteristics.The second chapter shows the different historical stages of the education modernizationin Russia, and presents a brief summary of the characteristics in each period, and overallygrasp the current policies and promote strategies of Russian education modernization. Theanalysis reveals that in the history of Russia the promotion of education modernization isstate-dominated, regional role is limited. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, the reformof federal system and regional decentralized movement led education obviously regionalized, such as decentralization and autonomy of the education management system, theimplementation of the three-level course management system, the vigorously development ofnational and regional higher education, which indicates education modernization in Russia inthe past is led by the state, but now its promotion mechanism has changed.The third chapter examines the promotion models of Belgorod education modernization.The Belgorod is one area of the best education in Russia, and of the relatively sufficienteducational resources. The emphasis of Belgorod’s education modernization is generaleducation in order to establish a modern general education system to ensure high qualityeducation for the statewide citizens through the implementation of comprehensive reformprograms, such as the new system of teachers’ salaries, the standard fixed fundingmechanism, the regional education quality evaluation system, the optimization of regionalcommon network, the expansion of public involvement in education management. In theimplementation of reform programs, the regional characteristics and the educational realitiesis taken full consideration, and the reform and development of education modernization issolidly pushed forward. The education modernization has the distinctive characteristics oftimes: innovative thinking leading the education reform and development; comprehensivereform programs promoting the process of education modernization; teacher professionaldevelopment enhancing the quality of education.The fourth chapter examines the models of regional promotion of educationmodernization in Krasnoyarsk Krai. Krasnoyarsk Krai is one of the most advanced regions inthe development of education in Russia. Krasnoyarsk Krai has completed to speed up theadjustment of industrial structure and layout, and to promote overall social progress andeconomic diversification development. General education focuses on high quality balancedand the quality improved. Elementary and secondary’s vocational education enhance theadaptability, diversity, sociality in order to explore the mechanism of interaction betweenhigher vocational education and regional economic. On the perspective of the practice ofeducation modernization, Krasnoyarsk Krai’s education adhere to the all-round progress, tothe key focus, and to innovation and exploration, carrying out modern education withdistinctive modern characteristics and regional characteristics.The fifth chapter shows the models of regional promotion of education modernizationin the Republic of Sakha. The Republic of Sakha is the largest part of Russia’s Union, and isthe most active area of education. It is the "bottleneck" of educational development in YueSaha Republic that Education foundation is weak, education level is varied, learning requiresis urgent, educational resources is insufficient. In the conditions, the Republic of Sakha hasadopted a "two-pronged" approach which is on the one hand, we need to actively seek andthen take full advantage of external supports, on the other hand, we need to dig a widevariety of local capacity and to strengthen the education infrastructure capabilities, to give more supplies of resources, to promote the education level in order to adapt and meet thediversified educational needs of the different groups.Based on thinking of the history and reality as well as national and regional, the sixthchapter illustrates that the regional promotion mechanism of education modernization haspreliminary formed in Russia, while the main social factors of the formation mechanism ispolitial system change in the new period, the adjustment of the regional economic policy andthe diversified structure of national culture. There has long been a Russian education’spursuit to establish a unified educational space in order to realize the educationmodernization. However, because of the regional differences, it has paid attention tocombining with the regional actual situation in the specific implementation. At present,Russia’s basic idea to solve the problem of education modernization is taken by promotingthe regional education reform and education innovation, encouraging and supportting theeducation cooperation between regions and exploring and formming new cooperationmechanism between the federal and regional to solve the problem of education.
