Abstract

The main goal of this study is to better understand the challenges of building transdisciplinary knowledge bases and their formalization in digital education. The article substantiates the need to develop mechanisms for building transdisciplinary knowledge bases to ensure the educational and research activities of student youth. The essence of the concept of transdisciplinarity and its importance in the educational process, scientific research for the construction of digital knowledge bases are analyzed. The transdisciplinary nature of ontologies in scientific research is determined. The methodology of transdisciplinarity of the knowledge base in terms of the development of network systems for managing information sources accompanying the process of supporting the educational and research activities of students is described. The escenario is defined as a means of forming a transdisciplinary knowledge base of educational and research activities of students. The principles of the ontological approach to designing a transdisciplinary knowledge base are presented and the procedure for its formation in the format of operationally structured escenarios is described. The general ontological graph-structure of the escenario of the transdisciplinary knowledge base is provided. It analyzes the conditions that enable transdisciplinary knowledge production and shows how transdisciplinary institutionalization can be better understood using an ontological approach. It can be argued that the ontological approach in the models of transdisciplinary knowledge production proved to be useful for a deeper understanding of the processes of institutionalization of transdisciplinarity. Prospective conclusions of the practical application of the given methodology and the described principles of building transdisciplinary knowledge bases to ensure the educational and research activities of student youth have been made.
