The coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) has made significant adjustments to the educational process. This situation forced the heads of higher education institutions to immediately translate face-to-face clinical and didactic instructions into virtual formats. This transition to distance learning has significantly affected various aspects of learning: lectures, practical and laboratory classes, research activities, etc.
Teachers of clinical departments also had to adapt to the implementation of distance learning strategies. Distance education provides interactivity of the educational process. This method of learning is carried out with the help of computer technology, which is the main communication engine under these conditions.
The aim –to ensure optimal learning conditions during a pandemic. Creating an online platform for conducting classes for the proper acquisition of knowledge by students of IFNMU.
Results. New distance learning strategies based on the Teams platform open wide opportunities for educational innovation and collaboration among students and teachers.
