ORGANIZATION OF PHYSICS EXPERIMENTS AND LABORATORY CLASSES USING MODERN METHODS

Abstract

This article provides a detailed analysis of the theoretical and practical aspects of organizing physics experiments and laboratory classes based on modern pedagogical approaches. In particular, it highlights the opportunities for using innovative educational technologies, digital platforms, virtual and remote laboratories, simulations, and interactive teaching methods. The study pays special attention to transforming students from passive recipients of knowledge into active participants in the learning process, as well as to developing their skills in conducting independent experiments, observation, analysis, and drawing scientific conclusions.

In addition, the importance of approaches such as STEAM education, problem-based learning, project-based learning, and blended learning in organizing laboratory activities is emphasized. The possibilities of visualizing complex physical processes, conducting experiments in a safe environment, and connecting them with real-life situations through modern technologies are analyzed. The article also compares traditional and modern approaches in terms of their effectiveness in developing students’ practical skills, critical thinking, and interest in the subject.

Based on the research findings, methodological recommendations are proposed for the effective organization of physics laboratory classes, aimed at improving the quality of education, expanding students’ scientific outlook, and developing modern competencies.
