Give a definition of science. Open the three values of science

Explain the three tasks of science.

1) Description - compositional form that is used for literary scholars and linguists detailed characteristics of objects or phenomena in order to create an artistic image.This compositional form is separated into a description of the items, description of processes, description or description of experienced human life and performance.

2) Explanation (in the methodology of science) - a cognitive procedure aimed at enriching and deepening the knowledge about the real world phenomena through the inclusion of these phenomena in the framework of certain bonds, relationships and dependencies, making it possible to reveal the essential features of this phenomenon. In the simplest case, the subject of separate explanations are the empirically observable facts. In this case, the explanation is preceded by a description thereof. But in principle the subject of explanations can be any kind of reality in all its forms and at all levels of its expression in the system of scientific knowledge. So, for example, the explanation may be subject to the laws of science, empirical and theoretical content theories lesser degree of generality may find its explanation in the theories of a more general level, and so forth.

3) PREDICTION

The statement, which will occur before it actually happens. All research prediction - a complex operation, involving deep knowledge of this phenomenon, including facts and the basic principles associated with it. Accurate prediction is usually regarded as the most rigorous test of scientific theory, psychology, substantially all of the predictions are presented in probabilistic form, although we must admit that it can be considered true for all sciences, the difference is that the degree of probability in some sciences is closer to 1, 0 than in others.

Science - is a special form of cognitive activity aimed at the development of new system-organized objective and reasoned knowledge of the world. Science as a social phenomenon can be considered in terms of the following aspects:

- Science as a specific activity;

- Science as a system of knowledge;

- Science as a social institution;

- Science as a productive force;

- Science as a form of social consciousness.

The term "science" has several meanings, on the one hand, science - it is a dynamic system is reliable, the most important knowledge of the objective laws of nature, society and thought.

Science - not only the system of scientific knowledge, which explain the world around us, but also a means of its measurement and conversion. It affects the cognition of nature by man not through emotional perception, but through systematic logical interaction of intellect, nature and society.

On the other hand, science is a specially organized activities of people. As a branch of human activity, science is a complex social institution, which was formed in the process of division of labor, the gradual separation of mental from physical labor and the transformation of cognitive activity in a specific kind of classes of individuals, groups and institutions.
