LTStraipsnyje analizuojama inovatyvių mokymo metodų taikymo studijų procese reikšmė, svarba ir siūlytini inovatyvių mokymo metodų tipai. Darbe yra pristatomi žvalgybinio tyrimo, atlikto Klaipėdos universitete, anketinės apklausos rezultatai, kurie parodė, jog iš inovatyvių mokymo metodų dažniausiai naudojamas probleminis mokymas, o rečiausiai naudojami el. mokymo būdai.
