When I enter the classroom, I understand that I am no longer a source of knowledge for my students. That is, the role of the teacher, which I myself saw as a student, no longer exists. Perhaps this is logical. Why ask a single teacher if you can ask Google and Google ask everyone else. This is where the problem begins: Google provides hundreds of dissimilar options and 1000 similar answers for a single problem. How to analyze information correctly? Which data is relevant? Which sources should be trusted and which should not be considered? The teacher can help with these questions. The teacher in the student audience today is probably not a source of knowledge, but a guide. Interactive teaching methods are road signs on the way to knowledge and skills to apply it. With the help of interactive teaching methods, students, together with the teacher, explore a specific thematic problem, make presentations of their findings, learn to work both individually and in a group. Finally students acquire independent research skills. Interactive teaching methods include: Presentation, Cubism, Zigzag (mosaic), Brainstorming, Brainwriting, KWL Rolestorming, Aquarium, Auction, Carousel, Clustering, Case-study, Venn diagram, Design, Discussion, Debate, Decision Tree, Role-playing Games, Simulation, Survey, Verbal associations, Insert, Socrates dialogue, Synectics - the method of analogy, Staging, Cinquain, Round table, Conceptual table, Semantic feature analysis, Jigsaw, Think-Pair-Share, Three-step interview, Circle the Sage, Three-minute review, Numbered heads together, Team-Pair-Solo, Six Thinking Hats, Kanban, Scamper, 5 Whys, The Three Chairs Secret and many others. Some of them, the most frequently used by me, I consider in this article.My choice of these teaching methods is partly due to the fact that at Baku Business University, special trainings were conducted for the entire teaching staff on how to master these interactive teaching methods. Universities as an organization understand that the walls of the alma mater are no longer a source of static knowledge; they understand that knowledge itself undergoes changes and updates every day. They understand that today Life-long Learning is becoming more and more relevant. Life-long Learning as a modern approach reduces the value of formal learning. It is no longer necessary to spend many years at university, when you can start a professional career after the first stage of education and at the same time improve your education, which will be of an applied nature. Why do we say yes to interactive methods? Within the interactive training, qualities such as student autonomy, decision-making responsibility are shaped. Cognitive, creative, communicative, personal activity of students are developed.
