PEDAGOGICAL OPPORTUNITIES OF ART-THERAPEUTIC TECHNIQUES IN DEVELOPING INTELLECTUAL COMPETENCIES

Abstract

The article discusses the role of modern educational technologies and art-therapy techniques in the development of students’ intellectual competence. In the context of the contemporary educational paradigm, fostering creative thinking, critical reasoning, problem-solving abilities, and emotional stability has become an urgent issue. The study examines ways of developing intellectual competence through the integrated application of interactive methods, digital learning platforms, the STEAM approach, and elements of art therapy. The research findings indicate that when these approaches are applied in combination, the effectiveness of education increases significantly.
