Course content
The academic discipline "Scientific Image of the World" considers science as a special way of knowing the world, as a dynamic system or a set of objectively true industry knowledge and a social institution. Within the discipline, the following basic concepts of science are considered: - the object of science - that side of reality that science itself is aimed at studying, - the subject of science - the sides by which the object under study is represented in science, - theories - attempts to holistically present the regularities and essential properties of certain areas of reality that arise on the basis of hypotheses (assumptions of connections and properties of certain areas of reality), - laws - open stable connections between phenomena, the formulation of which allows us to describe, explain and predict the phenomena of objective reality, - research methods - scientifically substantiated special methods and techniques for obtaining reliable knowledge, - paradigms - a set of fundamental generally accepted scientific theories, standards, models that arise when new facts do not fit into generally accepted old ones, - concepts - a set of interconnected views and understandings of certain phenomena, but, unlike theories, they are not sufficiently complete and verified.
