Understanding the structure of human nature is an important element in determining educational practices. Recent developments in the field of science, culture and technology today require us to reconsider the developments and changes in human nature. Therefore, while determining the qualifications and principles that should play a role in the education of the future, it is necessary to first evaluate how human that is both the subject and object of education in perceived in the 21st century. While all the disciplines are essentially examining human being from different perspectives and trying to understand its nature, Edgar Morin, a contemporary philosopher and sociologist, considers the issue from a different perspective and thinks that the reality of human nature can be reached only when the disciplines are considered as a whole. Morin, who thinks that uncertainties will be clarified with an integrated education, has suggestions for the education of the future.
