Philosophical and methodological reflection of educational theory as a phenomenon of scientology

Abstract

Introduction . The problem of the article is addressed to clarify the question of how the content of practical pedagogical knowledge accumulated by the society can be understood from the point of view of an epistemologically of generalizations and analogies, and the methods for carrying out the experiment and identifying experimental confirmation of an experted theory. As the nearest stage in the solution of these problems, the authors design correct theoretical constructs of a restricted nature which must include the following aspects: identifying weak research development of several segments of pedagogical reality, raising hypotheses about the possibility of describing them from the point of view of the positively valuable educational outcome for the learner and the ways of achieving it, finding the criteria for its evaluation and implementing them in a diagnostic format. Conclusions. The presented variant of polyaspect reflection of the results of educational research based on the theoretical scheme covers both retrospective and prospective reflective forms; it also shows all the procedures traditionally indicated by psychologists: stopping, removing, fixing, reviewing, objectifying; allows educational researchers to evaluate their investigations according to scientific norms which achieve a theoretical status. All the theses of the problematic format presented in the article are a possible field of application for beginning researchers.
