At the
beginning of the 21st century, educational system in Azerbaijan was reconstructed
and modernized. The usage of innovative teaching technologies, ICT and
pedagogical technologies, the application of active, project, problem and
constructive teaching are considered one of the essential issues. New
pedagogical studies should be carried out in order to solve these problems and
to find out their being effective. In the traditional way of teaching which was applied for centuries,
the teacher was required to transfer knowledge and the students were required
to remember and apply their knowledge properly.The traditional way of teaching
was based on pragmatism - one of trends of the education philosophy ie. the
teacher was in the center of the teaching process, the pupils were acquiring knowledge passively, teacher-student relations
were like subject-object.
Therefore, it is right to abandon traditional way
of teaching completely because it is a teaching theory and in this teaching
process which is based on theory mental skills of cognition such as knowledge, comprehension, and application
are improved. If we want to train a high-thinking personality according to the
requirements of the technological
community, we must build up the training process on the principles teaching
theory together with the principles of learning theory.Together with memory,
application, comprehension, we must improve the highest level of thinking: That
is, we have to put into practice the analysis, creation and evaluation
mechanisms which are considered the highest levels of cognition. When we attach
much importance to the mental acttivities such as analysis, creation, and
evaluation in addition to the knowledge at the lesson, the traditional lesson
is transformed into an innovative – constructive lesson
