The focus of this research is group interaction aimed at obtaining the “living knowledge” as an educational product. The dynamics of interactive classes on the development of students’ creative activity was structured into three parts as follows: Creation of a “relaxed attention situation”; Creation of a “situation of immersion in the collective creative experience”; Creation of an “active assessment situation”. Thanks to this structure, a scheme of an ideal learning situation at various stages of a class was created. The theory of self-organization in nonequilibrium systems (by Ilya Prigogine) was reconsidered in a new humanitarian context. The principles of self-organization in educational systems were determined through the author’s interactive educational techniques for developing students’ creative activity. The interactive and synergistic approaches were chosen as the key ones and applied as a methodological foundation of this work. The author of this research is the developer of the interactive approach. In this study, the author relied mainly on the theory of self-organization (synergetics) developed by Hermann Haken and Ilya Prigogine.
