Abstract

The papeer presents results of "non-traditional" teaching of basic course of Physics in the first year of study at the Technical University in Zvolen, specifically teaching via interactive method based on an increased focus on problem tasks and experiments. This paper presents also research results of the use of the given method in conditions of Slovak universities and its comparision with traditional methods.
