Summary/Abstract: Considering variety of pedagogical approaches and methods of educational and upbringing activities in the teaching class of the Islamic religious studies a question comes to mind: Should we persist on approach and method that is primarily oriented towards the content or should we support the approach and the method that is oriented towards students? Contemporary pedagogical theory and practice often point out the weaknesses and deficiencies of classical approach and organisation of teaching process and it stresses upon the need to make improvements therein underlining the necessity to create a contemporary teaching technique that is based upon material and technical possibilities of educational and upbringing institutions and upon capabilities of students. In order to make improvement in education and upbringing process it is needed, among other things, to create methods of learning and teaching that develops freedom and independence in students that will, in turn, enable them to creatively partake in the process end reach solutions for adopting the teaching content on their own. This requires a research study of characteristics and efficiencies of innovative teaching methods. Further, the empirical findings of this study should then be applied in order to create bases for the new methods. This article studies possibilities and the scope for innovation within teaching Islamic religious studies using the (inter)active teaching methods and new approaches to learning that can be built upon rigid, traditional teaching forms, with aim to establish adequate basic processing qualities in the process of adopting information, skills, practices and attitudes that are inspired by religious teachings.
