The research aims to conduct a comparative analysis of the effectiveness of teaching operating systems using virtual models and in the conditions of traditional teaching methods based on interaction with real operating systems. The study of the specifics of using virtual models that simulate real operating systems as an alternative to traditional teaching methods was carried out. In the process of the research, the data collected employing surveys, tests, and evaluations of students – future teachers of computer science, who were trained in operating systems using virtual models, were analysed. The factors influencing the material assimilation and the level of students’ motivation when using different teaching methods were considered. The results of the research allow to state the effectiveness and expediency of using virtual models of operating systems in the process of training future teachers of computer science. Providing access to virtual models can reduce dependence on physical equipment, improve the accessibility of learning and increase student motivation. The use of such operating system models also contributes to the development of independence and exploratory thinking in students who acquire the ability to independently experiment, search for solutions and study the features of operating systems without the need for access to real hardware and software. This helps to build students’ self-learning and analytical skills, which are important in their future professional teaching activities. The results obtained can be useful for pedagogical universities in the development and implementation of modern methods of teaching operating systems as part of student training in computer science.
