Interactive Tools in Online Education

The purpose of the article is to consider problems associated with the lack of the opportunity to conduct classes in full-time, research and analysis of the means for conducting and monitoring distance (online) training, determining the main criteria for choosing software and the general algorithm for conducting classes using modern interactive tools – webinars. The research methods are the platforms analysis that can be used as interactive tools for online learning, an overview of the types of modern learning and the synthesis of a general algorithm for conducting virtual consultations. The novelty of the study is the proposed algorithm for conducting webinars, which includes all the main stages of preparing and conducting online meetings, analysis of the training types, analysis of platforms for conducting online conferences. Conclusions. The technology of webinars implements the principle of interactive elements, which can be applied to the “speaker – participant” model. The preparation and conduct of a webinar is a routine process on which its results depend. To do this, you must perform a certain sequence of actions, which is given in the article. Interactive systems in online education are compatible with many organizational forms and teaching methods, which are widely used in educational activities. The proposed algorithm covers all stages of webinars in order to simplify the learning process
