Innovative Practical Methods in Teaching Organic Chemistry and Modern Cognitive Approaches to Students' Independent Creativity
Abstract
This article discusses the use of innovative practical methods in the teaching of organic chemistry and modern cognitive approaches that influence the development of students' independent creativity. The role of interactive methods in the development of the education system is analyzed, and the impact of new pedagogical strategies on the formation of students' research skills is highlighted. In modern times, traditional approaches alone are not sufficient for fostering creative thinking in chemistry lessons; therefore, interactive and problem-based learning methods should be prioritized. This paper also examines the impact of laboratory experiments, STEM approaches, and problem-based learning on students' knowledge and skills. Additionally, it discusses how student-centered approaches enhance their analytical thinking and ability to find creative solutions.
