Abstract

Contemporary education increasingly emphasizes the need for teaching approaches that promote active student participation and the development of higher-order cognitive skills. Problem-based learning represents one of the key didactic models that enables students to develop critical thinking and independence through problem-solving activities. In combination with interactive learning, which is based on cooperation and communication among students, this approach contributes to more effective knowledge acquisition.

The problem addressed in this paper refers to the insufficiently systematic application of problem-based learning in contemporary educational practice. The aim of the paper is to analyze the possibilities of implementing problem-based learning through an interactive approach in primary education. The research is based on literature analysis and a descriptive method, accompanied by a pedagogically structured example of classroom practice. The results indicate that the integration of problem-based and interactive learning contributes to the development of collaboration skills, motivation, and active learning among students.

It is concluded that modern education systems should further integrate problem-based and interactive teaching approaches in order to meet the demands of contemporary society and the needs of learners.
