The article describes results of theoretical research aimed at the identification of innovative scientific education practices
of the Junior Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (hereinafter referred to as the JASU) – a specialized science-oriented institution
that organizes extracurricular activities for intellectually gifted and talented children in 65 scientific fields. The article aims to
substantiate the theoretical framework for identification of innovations used by the institution in the context of scientific education.
Both theoretical methods and methods of collecting qualitative empirical data were used in the research. Specifically, this article
proposes the definition for the term “educational practices”, explains the notion and goals of scientific education, and discusses
how the term “scientific education” correlates with the concept of “specialized science-oriented education”. The article also
describes intrinsic characteristics of scientific education: methodological framework, specifics of content and activities, methods
and approaches. It provides insight into innovations in education and discusses their manifestations and ways of identification.
The article also proposes the generalized concept for innovative practices in scientific education. In this article, the modern
education trends are systemized and substantiated, according to which most innovations have been established. The author
describes the approach to standardization of innovative scientific education practices of the JASU and their presentation in
the form of the innovation passports. In this article, the results of identifying innovative scientific education practices of the
JASU are presented. In addition to large-scale projects, the research also identified creative ideas and promising developments
of teachers, not widely promoted and known at the level of certain territorial branches only. The article described the criteria
according to which innovative practices were systemized. The most promising practices in terms of potential for the widespread
use will be scientifically tested in further research and implemented in all regions covered by the JASU system.
