Abstract. The author notes that the introduction of interactive teaching methods encourages the realisation of goals and tasks based on the principles of educational reforms. It promotes the organisation of a student-centreed learning process, fostering democratic, psychological and social environment, as well as the implementation of an objective assessment system. A positive aspect of this approach is the process of fostering genuine motivation. This method is based on resolving contradictions in students' thinking during the course and development of cognitive activity.

According to the author, interactive methods such as discussions, debates, and interview techniques should be utilised in teaching subjects. The application of these methods creates favourable conditions for students to assimilate knowledge, discover new scientific insights, refine and apply this knowledge with additions, collaborate with peers to solve emerging problems in any situation, seek and find more accurate and practical solutions, and demonstrate their skills.
