Abstract
Humanities play a vital role in shaping intellectual, social, and emotional aspects in children. The COVID-19 pandemic and the rise of distance learning have transformed humanities education in Ukrainian universities. It is essential to examine the specific changes brought about by distance learning and their impact on humanities education in the country. The main research methods used were analysis, abstraction, and forecasting. The study reviewed the challenges faced by teachers and students in Ukraine regarding the introduction of digital technologies in education, particularly in the humanities. Furthermore, the role and possibilities of using technology in distance learning were described, as well as the importance of live communication for learning the humanities. The study also assesses the practice of distance learning in different countries. It was noted that countries with supranational organisations involved in the development of distance learning platforms have a more developed infrastructure and a wider range of available resources. Interactive teaching methods and digital educational materials are widely used in foreign institutions, promoting independent learning and improving access to knowledge. The study showed different approaches to distance teaching and describes how feasible their implementation was in the Ukrainian context.
