DEVELOPMENT OF STUDENTS' CREATIVE THINKING THROUGH RESEARCH ACTIVITIES

Abstract. Teaching biology should not only develop students' knowledge, skills and abilities. Involving students in research activities helps develop their creative potential. Unfortunately, modern school graduates, despite a high level of theoretical knowledge, do not have the skills to apply it creatively. In this regard, biology teachers should develop research assignments for students that help develop creative thinking.
