Emphasis is placed on the use of modern technologies and interactive methods in pedagogical universities to develop legal thinking and patriotic values. Several theoretical methods have been used in the course of research. In particular, the article extensivеly refers to empirical research methods, such as observation, comparison, and monitoring. Modern challenges in the field of national security of Ukraine require active participation of teachers in the formation of legal awareness of students.
