“INCREASING THE LEVEL OF CREATIVE THINKING OF STUDENTS IN PRACTICAL CLASSES IN PHYSICS”
Keywords:
Creative thinking, practical classes, physics education, innovation, problem-solving, hands-on experiments, pedagogical methods.Abstract
This scientific article explores the strategies and approaches to enhance creative thinking among students during practical physics classes. Creative thinking is a vital skill in the modern world, promoting innovation and problem-solving. Practical physics classes provide a unique opportunity to foster creativity by engaging students in hands-on experiments, critical analysis, and open-ended problem-solving. This article reviews pedagogical methods and instructional techniques that can be employed to elevate the creative thinking abilities of students in the context of physics education. It emphasizes the role of practical physics classes in not only deepening conceptual understanding but also in nurturing creative thinking, which is essential for addressing the complex challenges of the 21st century.
