Abstract
The paper presents the new perspective of the transdisciplinary approach in the mechatronical knowledge as a synergistic-signifcant teaching/learning integrative process in the knowledge based society, using the search window methodology with top-down and bottom-up levels of knowledge. At the same time, starting from the transdisciplinary learning paradigm, were introduced the extrinsic active and intrinsic reactive syntagms to modeling the new paradigms of the transdisciplinary mechatronical education. Research gives a new perspective on that the mechatronics has to be considered, an educational paradigm, a reflexive way of communication (the creative logic of the included third) and a socio-interactive system of thought, living and action, as well.
