In the context of rapid digital technology development, the education system gains new opportunities to enhance learning effectiveness. It is especially important to increase students’ cognitive interest when studying complex and abstract disciplines such as bioorganic chemistry. Traditional lectures do not always allow effective visualization of molecular structures and reaction mechanisms, whereas digital tools make the learning material more accessible and increase student motivation.
According to the study results, 75% of students noted that digital resources significantly facilitated the learning process, and 66.7% indicated an increase in their activity during classes. Digital modeling enabled faster understanding of complex structures, while educational platforms expanded opportunities for individual learning trajectories.
The main goal of the study is to identify effective ways to enhance students’ cognitive activity in the bioorganic chemistry course through the use of digital tools.
