The current stage of higher education development is characterized by the active introduction of digital technologies that transform traditional teaching methods. This article discusses innovative approaches to teaching chemistry in universities in the context of the digital transformation of the educational environment. The possibilities of using electronic educational platforms, virtual laboratories, multimedia resources and adaptive learning systems are analyzed. Special attention is paid to increasing student engagement, developing practical skills in conditions of limited access to physics laboratories, as well as developing critical and systems thinking. The results of the introduction of digital tools into the educational process and their impact on the effectiveness of learning educational material are presented. It is concluded that it is necessary to integrate digital technologies into chemistry teaching as an important factor in modernizing higher education and training competitive specialists in the scientific and technical field. Keywords: Chemistry, digital technologies, higher education, innovative methods, virtual laboratory, digital transformation, training. the possibilities of digital platforms, virtual laboratories Introduction: Digitalization is rapidly changing the and multimedia solutions as a means of improving the landscape of modern education, affecting both quality of chemical education and developing students' organizational and substantive aspects of the professional competencies in the context of the educational process. In the context of the active transition to a digital educational environment. introduction of information technology in universities, the need to adapt natural science disciplines, including Main part. chemistry, to new learning formats is becoming Results. As a result of the analysis and implementation especially urgent. Chemistry as a subject combines of digital tools in the educational process of chemistry complex abstract concepts and practical skills, which in higher education, key changes in the dynamics of requires the search for flexible and technological material assimilation and student learning activity have solutions for effective learning of the material. been identified. The introduction of virtual laboratories Modern students are increasingly becoming involved in has significantly increased the availability of practical a digital educational environment where traditional classes, especially in conditions of limited access to lectures and laboratory classes are complemented by stationary laboratories. The students noted the interactive simulations, visualizations of molecular convenience of repeated experiments and the processes, learning platforms and online resources. opportunity to study complex processes in a safe, These changes require the teacher not only to revise visualized environment. methodological approaches, but also to master new The use of multimedia materials (video lectures, 3D digital tools that ensure the involvement and models of molecules, animations of chemical reactions) meaningful activity of students. contributed to an improved understanding of the This research is aimed at identifying and analyzing theoretical aspects of the discipline. According to the innovative forms and techniques of teaching chemistry survey results, more than 70% of students recognized in universities using digital technologies. The focus is on digital visualizations as more visual and memorable International Journal of Pedagogics 84 https://theusajournals.com/index.php/ijp International Journal of Pedagogics (ISSN: 2771-2281) than traditional illustrations in textbooks. The that the groups studying with the active use of digital introduction of electronic educational platforms with solutions demonstrated a higher average score and the possibility of interactive testing and independent performed better on analytical and practice-oriented work has increased the regularity of assignments and tasks. There was also a decrease in the proportion of the level of independent learning activity. The teachers students experiencing difficulties with basic concepts who participated in the study noted an increase in and chemical calculations. student motivation, an increase in the quality of Thus, the use of digital technologies in chemistry feedback, and an acceleration of knowledge control teaching has proven its effectiveness, and innovative processes. teaching methods have shown high adaptability to the The analysis of final academic performance showed educational realities of the digital age (table-1).
