A paradigm is a type of model or example on which ideas are normally based on. For example, Watson and Crick's brilliant discovery of DNA was a new paradigm in the scientific world.

paradigm (IPA: [pæ.ɹəˌdaɪm]) has referred to a thought pattern in any scientific discipline or other epistemological context. Initially the word was specific to grammar: the 1900 Merriam-Webster dictionary defines its technical use only in the context of grammar or, in rhetoric, as a term for an illustrative parable or fable. Also, in linguistics, Ferdinand de Saussure used paradigm to refer to a class of elements with similarities
For example, in social science, the term is used to describe the set of experiences, beliefs and values that affect the way an individual perceives reality and responds to that perception
