PROJECT METHOD IN TEACHING PSYCHOLOGY

Abstract

Training focused only on memorizing material can no longer meet modern requirements. The problem of developing such qualities of attention, memory and thinking that allow a person to independently assimilate constantly renewed information, and the development of such abilities and skills that, preserved after completion of education, would provide him with the opportunity to keep up with accelerating scientific and technological progress, comes to the fore. . The project method is currently becoming an integrated component of the education system. Its essence is to stimulate students’ interest in certain problems that require possession of a certain amount of knowledge and, through project activities, provide for the solution of these problems, the ability to practically apply the acquired knowledge, and the development of reflexive thinking.
