The competence-based model of educational teacher training programs implies the mastery of systematic and critical thinking by students, the indicators of which are basic research and information activities. The method of conceptual analysis helps to motivate and organize the research activities of students of the Institute of Pedagogy and Psychology of Murmansk Arctic University – a logical technique consisting in the fact that the studied (analyzed) concept is divided into elements, which are further explored as parts of the whole, in order to combine using another logical technique, synthesis, into a single whole, enriched with new, the knowledge gained, the elements identified in the analysis process. The use of conceptual analysis as a method of motivating and organizing students' research activities arouses interest in the disciplines studied, helps students to develop rational skepticism as a norm of scientific ethics, conscious assimilation and operation of research concepts, and the formation of universal, general professional and professional competencies.
