Developing Creative Activities In Technology Lessons: Using Some New Interactive Methods
At the time being, special attention is paid to teaching students a creative thinking in technical science in general secondary schools. This can be seen in the example of curricula, timetables and textbooks published on this subject. In particular, in the curriculum and textbooks for grades 8-9 there is a section "Technology for preparing creative projects", which helps how to perform creative work. It should be noted that teaching pupils and students to think and work creatively is not an easy task. To do this, it is necessary periodically to inform them about creative works, methods and stages of their implementation. However, using some of the interactive methods in practice is also effective. Regarding this, to use certain interactive methods, we have created and improved several new interactive methods and applied them into a practice. We would like to recommend several interactive methods aimed at organizing and developing students' creative activities in technology classes which are given below.
