Item Open Access Integration of interactive online resources in teaching chemistry laboratory courses(SDU University, 2025) Akbope A.In the context of digitalization of education, there is an increasing need to find effective forms and methods of teaching, especially in natural science disciplines, where laboratory classes play a key role. The purpose of this study was to study the impact of the integration of interactive online resources such as virtual laboratories and educational videos on the preparation of students to perform laboratory work in chemistry. The study involved teachers and undergraduate students studying in the fields of Chemistry and Biology. A quasi-experimental approach, questionnaires, and comparative analysis of the results of pre- and post-tests were used. Three forms of pre-laboratory training were identified: traditional (instruction + explanation + video), video demonstration and virtual simulation. Statistical processing included factor analysis, single-factor analysis of variance (Welch`s ANOVA), as well as the interpretation of averages and the significance of differences between groups. The results showed that the use of virtual laboratories has a positive effect on the formation of applied laboratory skills, especially among undergraduates. Teachers with experience working with digital tools demonstrated higher confidence and a positive attitude towards their use. The greatest effect was achieved by combining various forms of pre-laboratory training. The study confirms the effectiveness of a blended approach in teaching laboratory chemistry courses and highlights the need for methodological and technical support from teachers for the successful implementation of digital solutions in the learning process.
