Abstract:
The global spread of the COVID-19 pandemic has introduced new challenges for higher education, particularly in the training of future teachers. The transition to distance education has proven to be essential in minimizing the impact of the pandemic on the teacher training system. The aim of this article is to analyze effective approaches to online teaching of pedagogical disciplines at the university level. The study examines the didactic benefits of combining online platforms such as Moodle, mobile learning technologies, and other web-based tools designed for educators. The results indicate that these tools provide flexibility, interactivity, and multidimensionality in the learning process. A key factor in the success of distance education under crisis conditions is ensuring adequate informational and methodological support for both students and teachers. Most students positively evaluated the proposed approach, while teachers observed an increase in student motivation and more active engagement in learning. The study's findings confirm the suitability of using these platforms and tools for effective online teaching of pedagogical subjects.
