The transition to digital education is considered a key driving force for the development of any university. In recent years, pedagogical universities have made tangible progress in many areas of digital development. However, the introduction of digital technologies (DT) in the educational process reached its peak during the pandemic. This study aims to identify the distinctive features in the work of a teacher at a pedagogical university during the pandemic. The study revealed the following: the doubts of the teachers with no e-learning experience; didactically effective digital technologies in the educational process, the combined use of which ensures the synergistic effectiveness of e-learning; students’ attitude towards the quality of the e-learning process during the pandemic.

The digitalization of the education system imposes certain circumstances not only on the organization of the educational process and the training of specialists in demand in the modern world, but also on the skills of a teacher in the field of information and communication technologies. Within the framework of this article, an analysis of Russian and foreign approaches to defining a set of digital competencies necessary for a modern teacher of higher education is carried out. The purpose of this study is to determine an objective diagnostic toolkit for identifying the level of digital competencies among teachers of higher institutions. Based on the analysis of Russian and foreign experience in the development of digital competence among teachers, including a higher education teacher, an internal questionnaire was developed to assess the level of formation of the necessary digital skills. Data collection was carried out through an online survey of teachers using a structured questionnaire. A survey of university teachers was conducted in order to identify the readiness to use digital technologies in the educational process. The data obtained during the survey made it possible to obtain objective information about the level of formation of digital competencies among teachers and their readiness to use digital tools and technologies in the educational process. University teachers have demonstrated high results in such competencies as the use of digital solutions for effective communication of students on academic assignments; creating your own digital resources; creation and modification of digital educational materials, inclusion of students in group work using the Internet, including online services for joint project activities; taking into account the individual characteristics and needs of students in the educational process; exchange of ideas and materials with colleagues from other educational organizations, including through cloud systems, advanced training through online training.

The paper shows that the main limit to the growth of "digitalization" in the XXI century may be not so much the limits of technology development, but rather the difficulties with staffing such a knowledge-intensive process as digital development. This problem is mainly associated with a decrease in the rate of growth of the World's population, which is determined by other social, economic, and factors. The personnel problem of the development of the digital economy is based on the need to maintain the number of researchers and the intensity of solving the problems of economic and social development through the creation and implementation of digital technologies. Solving this problem in the coming decades may face a chronic shortage of specialists to implement the most ambitious plans.

In this article, the process of linguistic faculty students teaching using innovative digital technologies is investigated in the focus of a synergetic approach. This problem is very relevant today, since the issue of preserving the quality of knowledge when implementing intensive electronic methods of mastering communication skills in a foreign language does not lose its actuality. Synergetics as the science of complex systems is now recognized as a new scientific paradigm in the study of various objects and processes. The authors focus on the features of the synergetic approach to the education process. From the point of view of synergetics, the authors consider the process of teaching foreign languages as a holistic dynamic system capable of self-organization and self-development. E-learning courses, which have become particularly popular in modern conditions, are considered as an integral part of the educational system. We are talking about self-organization of both the educational process and its structure, which is a means of optimizing students’ learning, and activating students in order to ensure a high-quality learning process. The role of the teacher and psychological and pedagogical support of students in the learning process is emphasized. The authors note that the synergetic interpretation of the psychological and pedagogical approach to teaching students the basics of language based on digital technologies contributes to the personal growth of students and the development of a holistic dynamic system.

This research paper presents the results of the author’s survey aimed at assessing the digital competence of modern university teachers. The relevance of digital competencies is becoming more and more obvious due to the transformations in the activities of educational organizations. These changes concern the use of digital technologies not only in university management, but also directly in the educational process. The development of distance learning and remote interaction formats is an objective reality in the modern world. The purpose of this article is to make an attempt of assessing a university teacher’s digital competence level based on the general perception of his/her abilities and the digital technologies used in his/her professional activities. The author analyses the teachers’ readiness to use digital technologies and their attitude to distance learning. The study showed that the majority of the interviewed teachers have a high level of basic and universal digital competencies. It was found that most of the respondents already have experience of taking online courses to improve their professional skills. The analysis makes it possible to conclude that the teachers who participated in the survey demonstrate a high readiness to use digital technologies in their professional activities. The author’s study is not supposed to give a complete picture of all Russian university teachers’ digital competence level, since this requires both greater coverage of respondents and the use of other channels (beyond digital) to collect data within the survey. At the same time, this research allows to formulate possible ideas for improving Russian university teachers’ digital competence level, which nowadays becomes the key to improving their effectiveness. The results of the study can be used when working out universities’ personnel development programs in order to ensure a higher level of the teachers’ digital competence.
