MODERN STANDARDS OF HIGHER EDUCATION PEDAGOGY: ХХІST CENTURY LEARNING

Abstract

B a c k g r ou nd . Modern standards of pedagogy in higher education prioritise student-centred approaches, integration of technology, active learning, personalised learning, critical thinking, collaboration and creative problem solving. These skills are essential for students to navigate an increasingly complex and interconnected world. Instead of focusing solely on memorisation and rote learning, educators encourage students to analyse, evaluate and synthesise information. They provide open-ended problem-solving opportunities that allow them to think critically, approach problems from different angles, and develop innova- tive solutions. By seamlessly integrating technology into the learning process, educators create dynamic and interactive learning environments that accommodate different learning styles and promote digital literacy skills. Purpose and objectives. To outline the trend in contemporary pedagogy in secondary schools that embraces learner-centred approaches that prioritise active learning and personalised learning. Emphasise the effectiveness of active learning methods, such as group discussions, practical experiments and project-based learning, which encourage students to become active participants in their learning. Demonstrate that these methods will foster deeper understanding, critical thinking skills and creativity as students apply their knowledge in real-world settings. Re su lt s . Student-centred approaches, such as active learning and personalised teaching, promote engagement, critical thinking and creativity, empowering students to take ownership of their education. Collaborative skills are developed through group projects and discussions, preparing students for life in a globalising society. C onc lu si on s . Modern assessment strategies emphasise flexibility and adaptability, using performance-based assess- ment and continuous feedback to evaluate student learning. In general, modern pedagogy in secondary schools aims to educate ХХІst century learners, equipping them with the necessary skills to succeed in a constantly changing world.
