Motivating factors for university students to use digital technologies in educational process

The study considers the formation of human capital in the transition to a digital economy that places new demands on the competences of future specialists working in new conditions. Educational programs of universities need to be modernized; in particular, this means adopting a broad range of information and communication technologies in the educational process. We have carried out a survey of students from 6 universities of the Northwestern and Southern Federal Districts. We have confirmed that forming a digital infrastructure in the educational environment of universities is a factor of key importance. Analyzing hygiene factors, we have found they were at a sufficient level. We have identified the motivating factors for using digital technologies in higher education and developed a set of recommendations aimed at improving the use of information and communication technologies by students.
