Purpose. The article generalizes the experience of project and activity approach in the process of teaching archeology in Altay State Pedagogical University, based on the interaction of such organization development as Historical and Local History Museum, Scientific laboratory “Regional Studies Through History” and the Industrial Park of the Universal Pedagogical Competence.Results. In the implementing process the problem arose of searching and testing new, more accessible forms of organizing project activities used by students in the pedagogical process. The authors think that the archeological reconstruction fits this viewpoint of social activity. It can be implemented naturally and virtually with different authenticity levels. The project and activity approach in teaching archeology is approved using the example of making a stylized dagger, Early Iron Age armor and a 3D model of a sculptural image of a warrior from this era. In addition, the approach was tested in teaching pedagogical university students undergoing professional training and students interacting with pupils as part of educational and pedagogical internships.Conclusion. The authors conclude that project and activity approach makes it possible to combine scooped from the professional literature and the students’ theoretical knowledge in the process of studying effectively with the active mechanism of their presentations in modern educational system.
