IMPROVING THE METHODOLOGY OF TEACHING BIOLOGY BASED ON A CREATIVE APPROACH (ON THE EXAMPLE OF ACADEMIC LYCEUMS)
Keywords:
creative approach, biology education, academic lyceum, teaching methodology, innovative pedagogy, problem-based learning, interactive methodsAbstract
This article examines the improvement of biology teaching methodology in academic lyceums through the implementation of a creative approach. Modern educational reforms emphasize the transition from traditional reproductive teaching methods to learner-centered and competence-based education. In this context, creative pedagogical approaches play a crucial role in enhancing students’ cognitive activity, critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and motivation to learn biology. The study analyzes theoretical and methodological foundations of creative teaching, examines interactive methods, project-based learning, problem-based instruction, and STEAM integration in biology education. Based on the analysis of scientific and pedagogical literature, the article identifies the effectiveness of creative methodologies in improving learning outcomes and developing scientific thinking among academic lyceum students.
