Summary/Abstract: Active working method is appropriate and systematic style of work implemented in the process of learning and studying, when the students acquire new knowledge, habits and skills, and later applies them in the everyday life and in their work. When planning strategies for active learning, we should always take into consideration the mutual and coordinated cooperation between the professor and the students in the teaching process. Learning, does not imply just learning facts, but learning how to apply them in your everyday life. The stress is on the reconstructed knowledge acquired by the help of experience, discovery, apprehension, thinking and debating. Active learning, further, offers the students a possibility to be heard, to be respected in their needs and the needs of the others. The interactive learning methods enable the students to take active part in the process of work, to learn how to ask questions, to apply what they have learned, and to use different resources. The students are also encouraged to take part with their own activities and to learn new skills and concepts. Those teaching methods are completely implemented with the students of acting at the Faculty of Dramatic Art in Skopje, not only because of the small number of students, but also because of the very nature of creating theater, which is impossible without discussion, imagination, curiosity, exchange, respect and approval of different ideas and opinions, trust, exchange of emotions, energy, team work and equal investment on all parts. It is important to mention that regardless of the contents, the active methods are applied throughout the entire university education.
