This study explores the role of digital learning tools and interactive teaching methods in enhancing students’ scientific thinking in general physics lessons. With the rapid development of educational technologies, integrating virtual laboratories, simulations, and interactive modules into physics instruction has become increasingly important. The research investigates how these modern pedagogical approaches influence students’ understanding of fundamental physical concepts, their problem-solving skills, and their ability to conduct experiments independently. The study employs a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods, including classroom observations, surveys, and performance assessments, to evaluate the effectiveness of digital and interactive strategies. Results indicate that students who engage with digital tools and interactive activities demonstrate higher levels of conceptual understanding, improved analytical thinking, and stronger experimental competencies compared to traditional teaching methods. Moreover, the integration of technology fosters motivation, participation, and collaborative learning, creating a more engaging and dynamic educational environment. The findings suggest that the systematic use of digital learning resources and interactive teaching methods can significantly enhance the quality of physics education and prepare students for future scientific and technological challenges. This research provides practical recommendations for educators aiming to modernize physics instruction and develop critical thinking and scientific reasoning skills in students.
