The publication presents the experience of online learning at the university in the period of Pandemic-2019. It is proposed to discuss the following questions: how to keep students' attention in an online class? why students can be passive in an online class? how to maintain a good learning rhythm during an online lecture? The aim of the article is to analyze the experience of pedagogical activity during the period of forced isolation to identify the methods of effective (not boring) online learning and to characterize the new features of the Moodle platform. Based on the review of articles by foreign and Russian authors it is established that it is necessary to create a methodology of online learning. Theoretical and methodological basis of the publication are the works of Robert I.V., Polat E.S., Panyukova S.V., Vertekki B., Saba F., Harrison R., Dugiamas M. It is determined that non-boring online classes are effective classes with stable motivation of students, requiring the development of the concept of the training course. It is substantiated that the Moodle system realizes the social constructivist pedagogical concept with the help of special elements: weekly course outline, introductory presentation, Internet forums, essays, Internet surveys.
