Во второй декаде ХХІ века внедрение электронно-цифровых устройств во все звенья общественных отношений достигло выдающихся масштабов, что отмечено и на образовательном процессе учреждений высшего образования. Развитие современной образовательной среды вуза невозможна без использования цифровых средств обучения (ЦСО) таких, как: платформы дистанционного обучения (EQUITY MAPS, GOOGLE CLASSROOM, MOODLE), мобильно-цифровых приложений (CLASSTIME, LEARNINGAPPS, QUIZIZZ) и платформ онлайн связи (GOOGLE MEET, ZOOM, WEBEX). Особое место в контексте внедрения ЦСО принадлежит медицинском образовании, где уровень личной подготовки соискателя (теоретической и практической) очень важен в контексте спасения человеческих жизней. Цифровые средства обучения позволяют использовать  особенности современного соискателя с его постоянными пребыванием в цифровом пространстве с целью обучения до введения ограничительных мер, вызванных пандемией COVID-19. Образовательный процесс не должен останавливаться, и соискатели должны получать качественное образование, но нужно сохранять баланс между аудиторной и дистанционной формой передачи знаний и умений. На помощь участникам образовательного процесса может прийти образовательная технология смешанного обучения. Эта технология обучения достаточно новая и динамично развивается, она незаменима при очной форме обучения. Данная образовательная технология предоставления образовательных услуг сочетает в себе лучшие аспекты и преимущества преподавания в аудитории и интерактивного или дистанционного обучения, создает доступные курсы для соискателей образования, при которых учебный процесс представляет собой систему, состоит из разных частей, которые функционируют в постоянной взаимосвязи друг с другом, образуя целостную образовательную среду вуза. In the second decade of the XXI century, the introduction of electronic and digital devices in all links of public relations reached an outstanding scale, which was also noted in the educational process of higher education institutions. The development of the modern educational environment of the university is impossible without the use of digital learning tools (CSOs) such as: distance learning platforms (EQUITY MAPS, GOOGLE CLASSROOM, MOODLE), mobile digital applications (CLASTIME, LEARNINGAPPS, QUIZIZZ) and online communication platforms (GOOGLE MEET, ZOOM, WEBEX). A special place in the context of the introduction of CSR belongs to medical education, where the level of personal training of the applicant (theoretical and practical) is very important in the context of saving human lives. Digital learning tools allow you to use the features of a modern applicant with his constant stay in the digital space for the purpose of training before the introduction of restrictive measures caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The educational process should not stop, and applicants should receive a high-quality education, but it is necessary to maintain a balance between classroom and distance forms of knowledge and skills transfer. The educational technology of mixed learning can come to the aid of participants in the educational process. This training technology is quite new and dynamically developing, it is indispensable for full-time training. This educational technology of providing educational services combines the best aspects and advantages of teaching in the classroom and interactive or distance learning, creates accessible courses for educational applicants, in which the educational process is a system, consists of different parts that function in constant interrelation with each other, forming an integral educational environment of the university.

Актуальность статьи обусловлена активным использованием дистанционных технологий и электронного обучения при организации учебного процесса в современных условиях. В статье рассматривается вопрос использования цифровых образовательных технологий в образовательном процессе как фактора, влияющего на мотивацию студентов при обучении. Проведенный анализ теоретических и психолого-педагогических исследований показал противоречивые точки зрения на цифровизацию обучения, так ряд авторов в своих работах отмечают негативные моменты при применении дистанционных технологий в реализации образовательного процесса. Вместе с тем изучение отношения педагогов вуза к переходу на дистанционное обучение позволило выявить ряд причин, показывающих отсутствие их готовности к широкому использованию коммуникативных технологий. Проведенное исследование со студентами 2-го курса по направлению подготовки – педагогическое образование показало следующее. Независимо от профиля подготовки активное применение компьютерных технологий при дистанционном обучении увеличивает число бакалавров стремящихся к самостоятельному поиску научной информации и областей её применения; развивается познавательная активность и творческое принятие решений в профессиональной области. Более явная динамика выявлена у студентов творческой направленности, обучающихся на факультете художественного и музыкального образования. Для формирования положительной мотивации к дистанционному обучению, как со стороны педагогов, так и со стороны обучающихся необходимо задействовать различные виды мотивации, в первую очередь, связанные с содержанием образовательной деятельности: модули, кейсы, использование различных образовательных платформ и т.п. The relevance of the article is due to the active transition to distance learning at the university. The article discusses the need to actively introduce the digital environment into the educational process at the university, as a factor influencing the motivation of students in the process of learning. The analysis of theoretical psychological and educational studies showed contradictory views on the digitalization of learning. Some works have negative aspects. Thus, when studying the attitude of university- teachers to the transition to distance learning, it was possible to identify a number of reasons for their lack of readiness for the widespread use of communication technologies. The study, with students of the 2-nd year of training in the field of education – pedagogical education, showed the following. Regardless to the training profile, the active use of computer technologies in distance learning increases the number of bachelors seeking to independently search for scientific information and applications; cognitive activity and creative decision-making in the professional field are developing. A more definite dynamic has been identified at FHIMO students. In order to develop a positive attitude towards distance learning, both teachers and students need to create modules for each subject studied. It should include: a series of audio and video lectures; methodical developments to create project activities in different educational portals.

The problem of research. The COVID-19 pandemic triggered a sudden transition to distance learning and an intensive development of the university's digital environment, and therefore it is important to assess how successful the rapid digital transformation has been from the point of view of students as one of the stakeholders. The study raises the question of students' understanding of the digital university phenomenon and assessment of interaction with teachers and administration. Materials and research methods. The aim of the study was to identify students' attitudes towards digital transformation at the university and assess the digital environment of their university. Anonymous survey was conducted among 2-3 year students of bachelor's degree in pedagogical areas of training of Moscow State Pedagogical University and Udmurt State University on November 2-14, 2020. 126 respondents took part in the survey. Results and discussion. The study showed that students interpret the concept of “digital university” differently. Comprehension can be classified into four blocks: learning format; digital environment; digital resources; web portal (digital platform). To the question "Can you say about yourself that you are studying at a digital university?" 40% –answered negatively, 33% – positively and 27% – gave their own answer. The survey revealed an generally acceptable level of student satisfaction with the experience of force majeure transition to distance learning during a pandemic. Among the most frequently used digital technologies in the learning process, students noted: Zoom, the information and analytical system of the university, Google Classroom, Moodle, online educational resources of third-party platforms, etc. Students believe that universities need to strengthen technological equipment to improve the quality of educational interaction in the digital environment educational process – 60%; to ensure the continuity of the digital qualification improvement of teachers – 60%; to create an accessible digital educational environment – 49%. 85% of respondents in the future associate their professional activities with the active use of digital technologies. Findings. The results of the study allow us to formulate a number of conclusions. First, students have different understanding of what a “digital university” is, which leads to discrepancies. Secondly, the attitude of students to the digital environment of the university is at a satisfactory level, since only a third of the respondents answered that they can state that they are studying at a digital university. Third, students rate the digital skills of teachers more highly than university administrators. Fourthly, among the most important difficulties faced by students during the period of pandemic distance learning, there were reasons related specifically to the educational process: an increase in the volume of independent work; the unpreparedness of teachers for the transition to full-fledged digital technologies; insufficient educational and personal self-realization in the context of digital learning; decrease in team-group work skills.
