Generation Z are talented, creative, imaginative individuals, leaders by nature, and express their feelings with the help of emoticons and various emojis, statuses in social networks. Distance education has emphasized the role of the teacher by making him or her a guide, adviser and tutor. The teaching staff of the higher education institution in the distance learning mode coordinates the student’s cognitive process and constantly improves the distance courses of the discipline in the Moodle system, increases own original creativity and qualification in accordance with innovations and license conditions. The use of interactive possibilities of distance education should also be used during face-to-face training, it will help students to learn the educational material better. Constant search for new didactic approaches and tools, the use of modern and diverse teaching methods will contribute to the training of specialists who possess not only the knowledge and skills of professional activity, but also think strategically, systematically approach the analysis and solution of real situations. For future doctors, it is a primarily important aspect of clinical thinking. Thus, all the available possibilities of modern presentation of the material will help future specialists in the medical field to develop it. Conclusion. Thanks to the transformation of the educational material in pathological anatomy to the form of an even more visual image or layering of knowledge with each learned practical lesson, the methods of presenting the material scribing, using WebQuests, using mind maps and interactive posters ensure greater systematicity, coverage of significant parts of the material, deeper assimilation, generating interest in the subject as a whole
