The role of axiological approach in the training of new generation teachers is theoretically substantiated in this article. The axiological approach makes it possible to identify a set of priority values in the education, upbringing and self-development of a person in modern society and to design their reflection in the norms and aims of future teachers in the process of psychological and pedagogical training. Possible ways of implementing an axiological approach in the educational process of higher education institutions are outlined, such as: the identification of value orientations of higher education applicants, with further adjustment regarding ethical positions in psychological and pedagogical activity; informing students of higher education about value orientations and identification of the most important ones in teaching the cycle of psychological and pedagogical disciplines; adaptation of higher education students to the system of professional value orientations through educational, practically-oriented, independent activity and interaction with teachers as carriers of moral principles and others.

A practical study of the problem showed that the most effective process of forming the professional readiness of a future teacher occurs in a real process or in the process of educational activity close to it. Building on the educational process on the basis of an innovative approach, bachelors develop creative skills to analyze existing materials needed to solve professional problems, to independently solve new problems. The study showed that the practical activity of students in their chosen specialties guarantees clear prospects for future professional growth, as well as employment, contributes to the formation and increase of their professional competence; The development of the experimental and educational base of educational institutions, increasing the level of education provided, stimulating the professional growth of teachers, the customer will be given the opportunity to train highly qualified personnel on the basis of educational institutions.

With the introduction of digital educational technologies, the learning process is changing. Digital technologies are not only a tool, but also a living environment for modern learners, which opens up new opportunities: learning at any convenient time, continuing education, the ability to form individual educational routes for students. However, such an environment requires teachers to take a different approach to the organization of the educational process, to acquire new skills and abilities for work, in particular the formation of their digital competence in the digital educational space. In these conditions, the system of pedagogical education should provide training for future teachers of art disciplines, which has a high level of digital competence. The purpose of the article is to reveal the essence of the concept of «digital competence» on the basis of the analysis of scientific literature and to determine the methods of formation of future art disciplines teachers’ digital competence in higher education institutions of China. To achieve the goal of the study, the following research methods were used: analysis of scientific literature, observation, systems analysis, comparative analysis, modeling method, classification method; methods of comparative analysis and analogy, design method; methods of systematization, generalization, logical analysis, analysis of personal experience of teaching and learning, comparison and interpretation of the obtained data. The results of the study show that the digital competence of future teachers of art disciplines consists of four components: motivational-personal (internal and external motives for their future professional activity), cognitive (a set of theoretical knowledge, skills and abilities of future teachers to effectively organize the educational process using digital teaching aids), activity (practical implementation of professional and pedagogical knowledge of a future teacher, his intellectual, cognitive, technical, design and technological skills, necessary skills for effective implementation of digital technologies in the educational process) and reflection-evaluation (ability to analyze and self-analyze, coordination of goals, methods and results, awareness of their style of activity, readiness for their creative change).

Information and technological support of the educational process is important for a clear organization of students’ accomplishing the stages of the web-quest and achievement of its educational, cognitive and developmental goals. The authors describe the advantages of using the e-learning environment Moodle as an integration tool for organizing work with web quests. Moodle allows not only to post the necessary materials and links to the resources online, but also to communicate between the teacher and quest participants through personal messages, chats, forums, seminars and to evaluate students’ achievements. The results of the web quest can also be displayed on the e-course page. The article offers training courses in Mathematics and methods of teaching Mathematics in the study of which it is advisable to use the technology of web-quest as one of the means of forming information and digital competence of students and also provides two examples of educational web quests. The first of them is designed for students of pedagogical universities and is aimed at mastering by them the course program «General methods of teaching Mathematics». Another web-quest gives students the opportunity to master the topic of «Text problems» in the course of Mathematics in a more profound way, to develop critical and logical thinking of students, as well as their research skills. Web-quest technology is an effective tool for integrating project method and information-communication technologies in education, and the use of web-quests in the educational process of a pedagogical university lays a solid foundation for the application of this tool in the further professional activity of a Mathematics teacher.
