The aim of the study – the search for ways to improve the quality of student performance and improve results, preparation of license examination test "STEP".
Materials and Methods. The study is based on review of the literature on optimization of educational process using distance learning systems. The study developed a training course on the theoretical disciplines on the basis of the e-learning platform Moodle and analyzed the academic performance of students in the preparation of tests at the Department of biochemistry and medical chemistry and the Department of social medicine, organization and health care management.
Results and Discussion. The article presents the appropriateness and possibility of introduction of information technologies in educational process in higher educational institutions including analysis of the benefits of the development of training courses in the form of information-educational environment on the distance learning platform Moodle.
Conclusions. The functionality of the system of distance learning Moodle allows you to create training programs with a given teacher through action that allows you to organize an independent work of students and efficiently monitor, greatly saving the time of teachers and increasing students' motivation to process the materials. Creating e-learning courses are the basis of knowledge of studied disciplines, to which students will have the opportunity at any time to review material from previous courses, which facilitates the uptake of current material.
