Introduction. The wartime situation in Ukraine has caused significant transformations in the organization of the educational process, highlighting the need for rapid implementation of digital solutions capable of ensuring continuity of learning and maintaining the quality of training for future healthcare professionals. The Moodle platform has become a key tool for distance and blended education, enabling the adaptation of teaching the discipline “Clinical Nursing in Pediatrics” at Kharkiv National Medical University to new circumstances.
The aim of the study – to analyze the specific features of organizing the educational process in the discipline “Clinical Nursing in Pediatrics” on the Moodle platform under wartime conditions and to identify the main directions of adaptation of the educational environment.
The main part. The electronic course, developed according to the educational program, includes structured learning modules, interactive assignments, testing instruments, asynchronous and synchronous communication tools, case-based workshops, photo archives of laboratory and instrumental materials, and emergency diagnostic protocols. A special role is played by the case method, which promotes the development of clinical reasoning, the ability to analyze symptoms, identify leading syndromes, formulate preliminary diagnostic hypotheses, and plan additional examinations. The use of video conferences, forums, and chats ensures pedagogical interaction, reduces student anxiety, and increases engagement. The platform provides continuous access to materials, individualization of the learning trajectory, and integration with external digital resources. In 2023, the implementation of a hybrid learning model made it possible to optimally combine distance technologies with practical training in safe clinical settings.
Conclusions. The use of Moodle ensured the stability and accessibility of the educational process, supported the formation of professional competencies, and enabled effective integration of theoretical and practical training of future pediatric nurses during wartime.
