Popis: The article deals with the topical problem of modern professional education – formation of first-year students' motivation for educational and professional activity as a guarantee of successful and high quality preparation of future specialists. The author emphasizes the fact that the use of active teaching methods will help to solve this problem. The article covers a variety of active teaching methods, describes some aspects of their application to enhance the motivation of students of pedagogical specialties in higher education institutions. The author actualizes the problem, first of all, through the analysis of the Law of Ukraine "On Education" in the part of staffing of educational institutions, which guarantees the recipients of education to provide high-quality specialists, capable of achieving high results and providing creative approaches to the organization of the educational process, thus creating innovative education. This social need determines the actualization of the problem of qualitative training of future teachers in the educational process of institutions of higher education, in particular, by reviewing the range of methods of classroom work organization. In the first year of training of future specialists, the methods should be selected in such a way as to promote the development of cognitive interest in the chosen specialty and gradually form the motivation for educational activity, because it is during this very period that a didactic adaptation of a future teacher to conditions of an institution of higher education takes place. In addition, for the future teacher, motivation to study in the first year already has great professional meaning. The author concludes that the review of the achievements of research, which is the subject of active teaching methods, allowed us to highlight the benefits of these methods for the educational process of higher education institutions. In particular, it is necessary to increase the educational motivation of freshmen in pedagogical specialties. In addition, active methods are aimed at restructuring and improving the educational process, as well as training professionals for professional activity. The introduction of active methods in the educational process of higher education institutions will provide opportunities for enhancing the emotional response of freshmen to the process of cognition, intensification of their learning activities, interest in acquiring new knowledge, skills and practical use of them; development of students' creative abilities, speech; forming the ability to substantiate and express their own views, activate thinking and so on. Among the most successful active methods are the following: problematic lecture, "lecture for the two", "press conference", pre-planned mistakes, lectures-consultations, "round table", discussion, "brainstorming", case-study and others. Prospects for further research show empirical understanding of the effectiveness of active teaching methods in the classroom work of higher education institutions.
