Abstract

In the context of the ongoing transformation of higher education, the application of innovative educational technologies aimed at improving the quality of student training has become increasingly significant. The study was conducted between 2022 and 2024 at Andijan State University, Navoi State University, and Kokand State University of the Republic of Uzbekistan, involving 529 third-year students and 15 academic staff members. To evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed approach, questionnaires, pedagogical observation, self-assessment methods, and mathematical-statistical data analysis using the chi-square (χ²) criterion were employed. The findings demonstrated a positive dynamic in the level of students’ readiness to perceive and apply innovative educational technologies and confirmed the effectiveness of implementing the technology for developing critical thinking in the educational process of higher education institutions.
