Preferred term

entropy  

Definition(s)

  • Entropy is the term used to describe how natural and social systems move from a state of order to disorder. While the concept may seem esoteric, entropy means a “change in state” (from the Greek entrope, change). [Source: Encyclopedia of Educational Leadership and Administration; Entropy]
