SYSTEM AS A WHOLE AND EDUCATION AS A SYSTEM: RELEVANT THOUGHTS AND CONSIDERATIONS

Abstract

It is obvious that the World is the largest and most complex system. It is obvious that the essence of the World cannot be known without analysing it as a system. System (gr. system - connected, composed of parts) – a collection of elements components) that are interconnected by certain connections; this forms a whole in one form or another. The whole can be understood quite differently (various contexts), but basically, three important moments can be distinguished: a system as a certain whole (a certain organised and interacting set of components, performing a certain function (s) and having a purpose (s)), a system as philosophy (simply all things in the world are connected), a system as technology (technological system or systems act as certain entities). Of course, the goal here is not to discuss deep methodological issues of systematics (systemology).
