The article discusses the features of the methodology of distance learning of higher mathematics in the system of modern education.

It is established that when distance learning of higher mathematics, it is necessary to solve two groups of problems: methodological and technical. The article substantiates that modern methods of distance learning of higher mathematics should take into account the continuity of education, which is the main priority of the education system. As a result of the study, the author comes to the conclusion that it is impractical to completely switch to a distance learning format for higher mathematics, since it has a number of shortcomings and controversial points. The author has developed pedagogical conditions for the use of distance learning technologies, adapted to the existing conditions for teaching higher mathematics. The issue of the concept, essence and features of modern distance education and the possibility of its application in teaching technical sciences is considered as an independent one.
