The article is devoted to the development of a computer program with the help of which it is possible to simulate the number of flowing and non-flowing cultures of microorganisms for educational purposes. The Mono model is taken as the basic model of biomass growth. The apparatus of ordinary differential equations is used for the mathematical description of cell populations. As a result, the structure and functionality of the electronic learning module with its subsequent implementation in Python has been developed. As a result, the laboratory work "Modeling of flowing and non-flowing cultures of microorganisms" was developed, in the form of a computer program, performed within the framework of mastering the discipline "Biophysics" and consisting in studying the basic principles and methods of modeling the processes of development of microorganisms in flowing and non-flowing cultures. The developed program is implemented in the educational process.
