The methodology of online educational courses is proposed, which allows building training in such a way that the result corresponds to the goals of the course. The author examines the process of creating a course step by step, describes features of synchronous, asynchronous courses and distance learning; offers an example of an online course “Physics through visualization”. Considerable attention is paid to the description of the functionality of online tools. Their systematization is carried out depending on the types of tasks to be solved. The methodology proposed in this article is applicable for creating, for example, master’s programs, as well as for educational courses and webinars.
