The article analyzes the issues of integrating digital technologies and interactive methods in developing students' critical thinking skills in secondary school history lessons. The study examines the effectiveness of using modern digital tools (virtual museums, digital maps, multimedia resources, online platforms) and interactive methods (problem-based learning, project method, debate) in history lessons. The main problems in current practice have been identified, including insufficient digital competence of teachers, limited material and technical base, predominance of traditional approaches, and imperfection of the assessment system. The research results show that the harmonious application of digital technologies and interactive methods significantly develops students' historical thinking, independent analysis, and ability to draw well-founded conclusions. The article puts forward scientifically based proposals and recommendations for the effective implementation of this integration.
