The creation of a digital environment is currently a priority in the state policy concerning the educational sphere. This is due to the digitalization of social life in all its manifestations. Today, researchers from various scientific fields are searching for ways to create an adequate model of digital learning that can form the conditions for successful educational activities. This article examines the role of the motivational component in the learning process in the digital educational environment. The change in the educational paradigm, which has arisen as a result of the influence of digitalization of human activity, determines the dominant characteristics of the student’s personality, leading to success in the implementation of educational and work activities. It is established that there is a need to study not only the means and material base of digital learning, but also its essential foundations, including the role of competencies and personal qualities of students. The article describes the competencies of the student that are important for effective learning activities. The role of the teacher in the development of motivation for learning is considered. The directions of pedagogical activity that are significant for the formation of motivation for learning are determined. The analysis of the conditions of digitalization of education has shown that the successful formation of the motivational component of training is possible with a combination of traditional and innovative pedagogical methods.
