The system approach is widespread in pedagogical research and each of the cases of itsapplication in a particular scientific work is unique. In addition, the literature review did not revealspecific works on the systemic approach within our subject. In this regard, the article provides atheoretical analysis of the application of a systematic approach in the context of the scientific theme«Development of metacognitive skills of students in a blended learning environment». As a method, weapplied a step-by-step algorithm: the purpose of using the approach; the integrity of the object as asystem; the structure of objects; component communication; component functions; analysis of thesystem's connection with the external environment. The result is the identification of significant detailsabout both metacognition in general and its applicability in the context of blended learning, coupled withan analytical justification for the use of a systematic approach. After the work on the algorithm, werecommend a step-by-step «decoding» of the sequences presented in theoretical articles, since thisgreatly simplifies the analytical process, allows you to pay attention to new facts, get a new stream ofthoughts during the implementation of a particular scientific work.
