INTRODUCTION
In today's era of globalization, national history, self-
awareness, and nation's distinctive features are becoming
common due to integration, leading to the loss of the main
ideals, the only unifying force for the nation. There are
cases where people do not know their past, prefer the
history of conflicts and tensions in the world to the national
history. This leads to the weakening of the sense of
belonging to history. Unfortunately, we cannot say that our
national history is free from such influences. Because there
are people who do not understand why it is necessary to
study the history of the Motherland and feel connected to
it. Such processes ultimately lead to the formation of
feelings of indifference and lack of confidence in the fate
of the country. That is why it is necessary to develop and
put into practice the means of forming a sense of belonging
to the national history. It's not just something that happens
on its own. Educational institutions are an important factor
in this process. One of the most effective means is to
convey a sense of belonging to students using special
methods.
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
In historical studies, there are different ways of examining
the sense of belonging to history. One of them is to
determine the level of the sense of belonging using the
questionnaire method. In the process of conducting this
research, modern Internet technologies are widely used and
this allows to increase the efficiency of the research in
practice. Survey research has historically involved the
collection of large population-based data. The main
purpose of this type of survey research was to obtain
relatively
quickly
information
describing
the
characteristics of a large sample of interested individuals
[1, p. 168].
Advantages of the survey method:
-
The possibility of covering a large audience;
-
High level of psychological freedom of the
participants due to the fact that it is anonymous;
-
Ability to quickly collect and analyze data;
-
High possibility of increasing experimental experience
from a distance;
-
High availability of Internet technologies and modern
methods;
ABSTRACT
In this article, information about the components of belonging to national history, ways of defining them, and the most effec tive
methods of instilling a sense of belonging in students is analyzed using observations. It also describes various aspects of the sense
of belonging and specific indicators of the means that form them. The interrelationship of categories such as feeling, intere st,
nationality, belonging, integration and globalization was studied in the coverage of the topic.
Keywords:
National history, relevance, educational methods, survey method, globalization, values, worldview, time and space.

Disclosure of specific wishes of the participants.
Based on the above possibilities, in this scientific research
work, together with the questionnaire method, the data of
scientific analysis and public opinion were used as
additional sources. But the principle of some caution and
thoroughness in obtaining analytical data is important.
Because the questions in many questionnaires are asked in
a general way. This affects the result of specific targeted
responses.
The first and most important step in creating a query is to
have a clear idea of what you're looking for. It is always
tempting to ask as many questions as possible and ask as
many questions as possible in the hope of getting as much
information as possible [2, p. 6]. If the content of the
questions and their level of accuracy are high, the purpose
of the survey will be clear and thorough.
A survey can be seen as a research strategy in which
quantitative data is systematically collected from a
relatively large sample of the population [3, p. 36].
Standardization should be seen as an important step in
survey implementation. The reason is that unsystematic
survey questions affect the orientation of the research,
which is related to the sense of belonging.
LITERATURE REVIEW
Nationality and personal identity play a decisive role in the
formation of a sense of belonging. [4, p. 1]. The national
character of the sense of belonging in history is formed
through stories and oral narratives. Since the process of
social identification is partly related to the pursuit of
positive self-esteem, if the historical event is positive, it
can be expected that the narrator will be motivated to be
active in the construction of the story, which will result in
a story with a more complex structure (5, p. 457]. Perhaps
belonging is understood as a soft and vague concept
because it is often emotional and emotional (6, p. 3). The
sense of belonging to history has a slightly different
meaning in the concepts of space and time. In this case, the
general appearance of the space, its location, and the sense
of respect for the region among the country's youth are
important. These signs determine the level of involvement
in people. Of course, empirical research on feelings of
territorial belonging is needed to take into account both
dimensions [7, p. 19].
A sense of belonging to history is not only related to space
and time. it is also related to processes, events and
emotions. A sense of belonging is not about involvement
with or closeness to others or groups. Rather, belonging
comes from a sense of quality, meaning, and satisfaction
from social connections. Belonging can also relate to a
sense of belonging to a place or even an event. Therefore,
it is a complex and dynamic process unique to each
individual [8, p. 3]. The dynamics of the development of
involvement is manifested first in individuals and then in
group individuals. In the process of transitioning from an
individual order to a general order, we receive scientific
news and conclusions. It should be noted that the analysis
of the components of relevance is a complex process. After
all, it is difficult for these concepts to create interest, which
is the driving force for individuals.
On the other hand, as a result of increasing integration
processes, nationality, identity, historical relevance and
patriotism are becoming a unique concept. In this sense, it
is very difficult to belong to any team today. Globalization
is one of the main aspects of this obstacle, because it is
difficult to find ways to have a sense of belonging in a
globalized world [9, p. 335)]. At the same time, developing
a national development strategy can be the most powerful
means of achieving the goals.
One of the most important tools for creating a sense of
belonging is the educational process. It is this system that
is important in implementing the mechanism of history.
Because students' feelings of belonging begin to arise
during educational processes in educational institutions. In
essence, a sense of belonging can increase students' sense
of ownership and confidence in their own learning
potential to self-direct their learning. Also, students are
encouraged to be more persistent in learning because they
feel autonomy, freedom and belonging in the learning
environment [10, p 62]. The knowledge acquired by the
students during the educational process and the formed
worldview show the extent to which their sense of
belonging to history is developed. Therefore, it is
necessary to enrich educational programs with relevant
components and to describe them using a method that is
suitable for the students' point of view. Only then will the
result be in the pointer as we expect.
ANALYSIS AND RESULTS
A survey was conducted on the manifestation of the sense
of belonging to history in the minds of people and its
analysis in the form of digital transformation. The stages

of its implementation are as follows:
Questionnaire form. This survey was conducted in written
form, using the Telegram social network, which is one of
the tools of modern pedagogical technology.
Objects. 210 students took part in the survey and answered
questions in the field of their choice.
Means. During the experimental test, students were asked
three logical questions related to relevance. They
expressed their conclusion based on two choices.
Indicators are given in percentage, depending on their
average value, the components of relevance were
determined and the data was analyzed.
This research and survey results show that space plays a
key role in increasing engagement rates. Because it is the
features, opportunities and atmosphere of the space that are
capable of instilling in students a sense of gratitude and
loyalty to this land. Although students have different
opinions about the sense of belonging to history, the
majority of them consider themselves to be related to
history. Of course, its indicators have a low value
compared to the percentage. However, this indicator
increases depending on the feeling and understanding of
relevance. (See Table 1.)

A total of 210 students from full-time, evening and
correspondence courses took part in the survey. They voted
“yes” or “no” on three questions related to history.
According to him, the majority of full-time students asked
“Is studying world history more important than studying
national history?” 40% answered “yes” to the question,
which is the highest among all three groups. The smallest
value in this direction belongs to students of part-time
education, which was 21%. In the third column, “Does a
sense of belonging to history motivate him to learn?”
question produced statistics of particular importance. The
biggest difference in the analytical results is related to the
part-time education, this indicator was 89% by 11%. From
this survey, it was found that the level of belongingness of
students in full-time education is higher than that of
students in both part-time and evening education.
Therefore, in order to form a sense of belonging in
students, it is necessary to rationally increase the
information about the sense of belonging in the textbooks
and cover students with education for more time.
During the experimental research, the main indicators and
differences of the importance of national history and the
sense of belonging to it were clearly demonstrated. Also,
this survey can be analyzed by gender, age and subject
areas. The reason is that the sense of belonging among
specialists in the fields of medicine, information
technologies and economics is passive compared to the
leaders of social sciences. Because they do not always feel
a strong need for a sense of social belonging.
Although e-mail and online surveys have the same
advantages and disadvantages as computer-based data

collection, many additional challenges arise. Challenges
are related to sampling, response rate, non-response
characteristics, confidentiality and ethical issues [11, p.
32].
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Analyzing the question of belonging to the general
received history with the help of new research methods to
ensure the observation of the sense of belonging. It can be
agreed that globalization and integration processes will
eventually become more general and disappear. The above
survey, which explored the question of belonging,
determined the specific dynamics of objects and subjects.
It helps to identify and predict the goals and objectives of
the main research. In addition to questionnaires, feedback,
interviews, and interviews can be used to develop a sense
of belonging. Among the many advantages of the survey
method, one of its disadvantages is that it brings a sense of
belonging together. In addition, it consists of short
questions and answers. However, a survey is one of the
methods that can be used to gather the opinions of a large
audience.
In order to develop the main tools and their characteristics
that form the sense of belonging, it is necessary to perform
the following tasks.
-
Organization of a group of young people with a strong
sense of belonging to history and coverage of their
activities in mass media;
-
Creating a database of national history among
students;
-
Paying attention to highlighting the components of
relevance in the process of social and humanitarian
sciences and interdisciplinary integration;
-
Supporting channels, programs and broadcasts related
to the sense of belonging in modern networks;
-
Awakening the category of conscience as a strong
feeling in students:
-
Creating feelings of national pride and honor by
enriching history on the basis of national values;
-
Taking into account common interests in forming a
sense of belonging to history;
-
Development of models that form a sense of belonging
to national history and their inclusion in science
programs.
