Abstract
The article highlights the problem of forming the readiness of future Masters of Education for managerial activity under the conditions of digital transformation of higher education. Readiness is considered as an integrated construct combining motivational-value, cognitive, activity, and personal components. It is emphasized that the digitalization of the educational process
requires the creation of specially designed pedagogical conditions that ensure the development of all structural components of readiness of future education managers.
The purpose of the study is to theoretically substantiate and determine the pedagogical conditions for forming the readiness of Master’s students for managerial activity through the digital environment, as well as to outline the specifics of their implementation in professional training. The methodological framework is based on the analysis and synthesis of scientific sources, a systemic-
structural approach, modeling, and prognostic methods.
Based on the analysis of Ukrainian and international research, three pedagogical conditions have been substantiated: (1) the creation of a digital educational environment aimed at developing a motivational-value attitude towards managerial activity; (2) the integration of digital tools and technologies into the process of developing cognitive and activity-related components of managerial
competence; (3) the organization of reflexive-activity interaction in digital platforms aimed at developing the personal qualities of future educational leaders. It is shown that the implementation of these conditions ensures the unity of professional motivation, knowledge, practical skills, and personal characteristics necessary for effective educational management.
It is concluded that pedagogical conditions serve as a system-forming factor in the training of Master’s students, and their implementation in the digital environment enhances the quality of the educational process and contributes to the formation of competitive specialists. Prospects for further research involve developing a practical model for implementing the defined conditions and creating diagnostic tools for assessing the level of readiness of future Masters of Education for managerial activity.
