Basic provisions of the synergetic methodology for the open education.

Abstract

The article provides the research of major points of the synergetic methodology of the open education as the most relevant paradigm at the modern stage of the information society development. It has been demonstrated that the synergetic methodology possesses a significant potential for the study of non-linear dynamic systems that are characterized by self-organized nature and self-development. Analysis of various approaches of synergetic apparatus applicability for the research of educational systems has been carried out. Juxtaposition of the open education with such criteria as complexity, openness, non-equilibrium and non-linearity has been provided. The latter gave grounds to draw a conclusion about belonging of the open system to the systems of the synergetic type. The work reveals the content of synergetic principles and demonstrates the effect of their applicability in the open education.

Key words:
