In response to the priorities of modern medical education, in the process of implementing educational programs, it has become a challenge to provide cognitive activities among students, teamwork and to create an environment based on support. However, the era of artificial intelligence implementation makes us think about ways to ensure readiness for future challenges, including the active use of technology in teaching to make learning material visible, improve perception and visualize the essence of the issue/problem. Implementation of modern teaching methods and strategies is especially relevant in the teaching of fundamental training courses. The purpose of the mentioned research was to determine the impact of the use of modern methods of technology in the teaching of anatomy on the teaching process and learning outcomes. In order to achieve the goal of the research, the results of learning anatomy within the framework of learning modules - "organism systems" were analyzed. The study was conducted using a semi-experimental intervention method. A total of 816 students were evaluated, both the accumulated knowledge and the ability to apply knowledge in practice, the latter was enabled by the modern method of evaluation - an objectively structured practical exam OSPE (Objective Structured Practical exam).
