To support the active learning process, it is possible to use information technologies that include modern multimedia systems. Recently, they attract a lot of attention. An example of such learning systems is virtual laboratories that can model the behavior of real-world objects in a computer educational environment and help students acquire new knowledge and skills when learning scientific and natural disciplines such as chemistry, physics and biology.
For the successful use of virtual laboratories, methodological developments for laboratory work are required. The main idea of the complex is to create a continuously developing educational environment, starting from the walls of the school and ending with the training of a qualified specialist for work in production on the basis of a single network of teaching aids.
In this article, we examined the methods, basic functions, advantages of creating a virtual chemistry laboratory.
