Contemporary society inevitably demands modernisation of the conventional approach to education in general, and to teaching specific disciplines in particular. Forensic science is a special legal science, because it has its own objectives, is closely connected with virtually all existing branches of science and technology, and its knowledge is of applied nature. With the European standard of education being implemented during the transitional period of this country, Russian universities face the objective necessity not only to change the attitude to the teaching process but also to ensure a qualitative modernisation of the way the accumulated knowledge is transmitted to students. Conventional methods and means of teaching proved by decades of experience are no longer enough to efficiently form students’ competences required for practical work. There is now the objective necessity not only to teach innovative activity but also to apply it in the teaching process.
