Abstract
This article examines one of the current problems arising in the demands of modern society – the use of distance learning in the process of teaching biology. Theoretical and empirical research using information and communication technologies was conducted with the participation of teachers and students of the 10th grade of Kyzyl Asker secondary school in Turkestan region. In the course of research innovative methods of distance learning were used: “individual learning”, “teacher-student”, “student-student”, case method, chat-lesson-chat-technology, “flipped classroom”, interviews (via Zoom platform), computer statistics, interpretation of computer graphic tables, etc. Conducting experiments in a virtual laboratory, extensive use of test programs in assessing learning outcomes has increased scientific cognition and the interest of students. By analyzing the data collected as a result of the research, effective platforms were selected, and methods for teaching biology were developed and proposed, allowing students to easily master the distance learning format. Distance technologies allowed students to deeply master basic biological concepts and form special competencies through algorithm, formulation, selection, analysis, evaluation, systematization, generalization using information technology in the course of the lesson and its consolidation of the lesson. The results of this research will be used to improve the effectiveness of teaching biology in the future.
