The relevance of the problem of studying rhizomatic learning is associated with the increasing pace of modern technological changes that have challenged historical ideas about what is considered knowledge and systems for its construction. Rhizomatic learning describes an alternative to the traditional concept of knowledge, where a rhizomatic learning model is proposed instead of an expert-oriented cycle of pedagogical planning. The problematic issue of this article is: what is the essence of rhizomatic learning? The aim of the study is to review theoretical concepts in order to reveal the essence of rhizomatic learning from the standpoint of poststructuralism. The research method is a review of scientific literature. In the literature review, the current literature on the issues under study was considered. The literature review period includes philosophical and educational literature from 1968 to the present time. Rhizomatic learning is based on Giles Deleuze’s and Félix Guattari's rhizome term, which has no beginning or end, providing a dynamic, open, personalized learning network created by learners themselves that meets their perceived and real needs. Scientific analysis has shown that rhizomatic learning develops through the concepts of Deleuze, Guattari, especially through the concept of "becoming a student" and occurs throughout life. In the rhizomatic model, knowledge is discussed, and learning experience is both a social and personal knowledge-creation process with shifting goals and constantly debated premises. The metaphor of the rhizome, which represents a critical leap in overcoming the loss of a canon against which knowledge can be compared, judged, and assessed, may be particularly appropriate as a model for cutting-edge disciplines where the canon is fluid and knowledge is a moving target. Theoretical and practical significance. Based on the data obtained in the study, it is planned to formulate proposals for improving the educational practices used in the process of teaching students in higher education institutions. The research materials presented in the article may be useful to education researchers from various fields of social sciences, specializing in the creation of new educational systems.
