Summary

The article examines the first results of the digitalization of Biology school course in terms of STEM education. The issue of digitalization (digitization) of the Biology course as a component of STEM education, is considered. It involves the use of digital equipment and software in the learning process, which contributes to the increase of competitiveness and creativity potential of students. The use of digital technologies make it possible to individualize educational sessions taking into account the abilities of each student.

The use of modern information technologies in the educational process is an important part of the teacher's profession. BYOD technology under proper conditions of using mobile technologies in the learning process of primary school is the right means for improving the Biology learning process. The optimal conditions to create a modern learning environment were clarified and recommendations were provided to use modern digital applications to teach biology.
