In modern strategies such as exemplary teaching, creative demands and teaching process are student oriented. Students are demanded to group information, criticaly analyze, interpret and anticipate new consequences. Through modern strategies curriculum is being deliberated and therefore needs to be seen as a style of work, teaching strategy, and models of interaction and communication relations. One of the modles of intensifying and rationalizig student’s work in teaching process is exemplary teaching. The word exemplar derives from the Latin word, meaning an example, a sample, while the word exemplar is derived from this noun and means exemplary, exemplary example of work. The very phenomenon of exemplary teaching process is directed towards overcoming the weaknesess of traditional teaching process.
