Summary/Abstract: This papers concerns the question of whether approaches to the educational process can be arranged in the academic didactics by T.S. Kuhn’s category of “paradigm”. The author suggests that social sciences, including educational science, are multiparadigm sciences where concurrent existence of many schools of thought, theoretical and methodological approaches, as well as trends and ideas appears in the form of acceptable across the scientific environment methods of problem solving, explaining and interpreting. This paper presents the study on the selected approaches to didactical theories arrangement which allowed to apply the category of paradigm – from bipolar suggestions to the ability of paradigm-based discipline mapping. Based on the foregoing the map of paradigms in the academic didactics is displayed.
