Abstract
Abstract The development of students’ key competences and their scientific worldview is one of the significant tasks of secondary education. Understanding of the Universe, its objects, structure and research methods is an important part of natural and mathematic worldview. Problem-based learning is a relevant form for develop critical thinking during the study of these topics in the course of astronomy. In the conditions of distant learning this can be realized with the help of interactive online platforms whereas practical tasks can be realized through the use of simulators, mobile and computer applications. This will contribute the development of students’ key competences and practical skills. This research offers to emphasize the Universe study and interactive technology use in order to develop research, information and digital competences as well as competences in natural sciences and technologies.
