Abstract [eng] With the development and rapid spread of new teaching methods involving the use of Information and Communication technologies (ICT) the need of new researches has appeared. Cognitive skills (skills of achieving theoretical and practical knowledge) can be effectively developed through chemistry experiments when theoretical and practical knowledge are juxtaposed. The research topic of the dissertation is the impact of ICT based chemistry experiments on cognitive skills education during chemistry lessons. The research was conducted in one of city’s gymnasiums by construction of cognitive skills expression during chemistry lessons model and its’ implementation in education project. Summarized research results showed weaknesses of ICT implementation in chemistry teaching and limitations of virtual chemistry experiments application for cognitive skills education. The dissertation creates guidelines for other researches in the field of ICT implementation for natural science education.
