This article analyzes the introduction of digital technologies into the educational process, their role in the development of logical and critical thinking. The study covers the historical stages of the Uzbek education system - the Jadid period, Soviet education and the process of forming a culture of thinking during the post-independence reforms. International experiences, in particular, the use of digital tools in advanced education systems such as the USA, Finland, Singapore, and Japan, as well as teacher training and assessment systems, are analyzed. In addition, the problems that arise in the development of digital education are also considered. The article substantiates the possibilities and limitations of applying foreign experiences in the conditions of Uzbekistan and provides practical recommendations for the development of critical thinking through digital technologies.
