Abstract

The functioning of the education channel in the culture of the information society is based on three social kumatoids (wave-like objects): education, mass culture and science.  This interaction is performed on the basis of exchange between the following elements:  the person (the learner, if we are talking about the kumatoid of education), information, the carrier of information, the transmitter (transformer) of information. The social relays connecting these elements act in the situations of choice containing the conditions of uncertainty.  Therefore, the activity to estimate the level of trustworthiness of information has invariant character. Thus, under modern conditions the principle of fundamentalization of education becomes particularly important.
