WHAT MAKES EDUCATION SO COMPLEX

Abstract

The aim of the research is to reveal the factors influencing modern education. The article addresses one major question: What is happening with education in this difficult era? The author draws on the analysis and results of Western studies in order to understand what makes education so complex. At the same time, it is important in the article to identify the totality of various factors that affect the concept of education. The scientific novelty of the work lies both in the approach to the study of scientific articles by Western scientists, and, in the interdisciplinary consideration of the issue itself with the involvement of the classical works of Western philosophers. The study also addresses two main sub-themes: What is education for? Values and attitudes of teaching staff. As a result, the data obtained showed that the variety of factors of modern education is difficult for a number of external and internal factors, where external ones have only an indirect effect on its content, while internal ones have a direct impact.Ultimately, frequent reforms in the education system, a surge in economic integration, a huge flow of information and human relationships through advanced technologies, the movement of a huge number of people around the world, changing of human values and many other factors make education so difficult
