The Axiological Blog as a Vector of Digital Experiential Learning: between Cognitive Awareness and Behavioral Consolidation

Abstract

The article explores the role of value-oriented educational blogs, exemplified by axioblog.md, in fostering young people’s attitudes and behaviors in the digital age. Drawing on the self-determination theory, the theory of reasoned action, and the social learning theory, the study shows how online reflection promotes autonomy, competence, and relatedness. Axiological blogs are framed as interactive spaces that encourage a growth mindset, critical thinking, and self-efficacy through vicarious modeling. The process unfolds in four stages: cognitive awareness, modeling, assisted experimentation, and behavioral consolidation. Findings highlight the blog’s potential as an innovative tool for transforming reflection into sustainable practices and for strengthening value-based educational communities.

Keywords: axiological blog, digital learning, growth mindset, critical thinking, self-efficacy, value-based education, youth development.
