In this work, the authors have realized the goal of determining the key components and characteristics of the educational environment of the university as a factor of influence on the supra-professional competencies of future teachers. In the empirical part of the study, the authors conducted an online survey of students of the pedagogical university (n=157) to confirm the research hypothesis. As a result, the article argues that a multicomponent educational environment (social, technological, spatially-subject components) should have such characteristics as openness, variability, redundancy and orderliness. The results obtained show the high importance of the formation of supraprofessional competencies of future teachers and the average level of student satisfaction with the possibilities of strengthening them, provided today by the modern educational environment of the university. The results of the study will be useful for the administrative and managerial and teaching staff of the university, who are focused on the development of curricula in accordance with the needs of modern educational institutions and the requirements for teacher training

Данное содержание предъявляет определенные требования к образовательной среде. В связи с этим была предпринята попытка исследования представлений студентов о влиянии образовательной среды вуза на формирование их профессиональных компетенций, что важно при разработке образовательной политики конкретных вузов, а также в целях оценки эффективности внедрения новых образовательных практик. В качестве основных критериев исследования среды вуза рассматриваются предметно-пространственные факторы в освоении и персонализации среды вуза (организация учебного пространства, библиотечного пространства, неформального пространства взаимодействия и кооперации); эффективность интеллектуальной и творческой деятельности студентов в пространстве университета; факторы образовательной среды, влияющие на формирование профессиональных компетенций студентов и выпускников педагогических вузов. В результате исследования показано, что важным условием формирования профессиональных компетенций является профессионализм преподавателя; комфортность предметной среды вуза положительно сказывается на восприятии университетской среды, отношении к университету и деятельности, которая в нем осуществляется; студенческая вовлеченность в университетские мероприятия становится одним из мотивирующих факторов, определяющих качество и результат обучения студентов, влияющих на «вхождение» в профессию, заинтересованность в профессии, профессиональном развитии. Modern education is focused on the formation of a new way of thinking of students, of professional competencies in the field of pedagogical, project, research and cultural and educational activities, which involves the use of various forms and methods of work, a variety of educational scenarios.

This work considers the use of digital traces in the educational environment and the specifics of their collection and analysis at the university. One way or another, all participants in the educational process, as well as those who can potentially become them, for example, applicants, leave digital traces in the digital environments of the university and the Global Network in general, and these traces can be analyzed. At the same time, even the university itself as an organization leaves a certain digital footprint on the Internet. At the moment, most researchers are very optimistic, contemplating on what positive changes can be brought by the analysis of digital traces of applicants, students and teachers for the development of the university itself, the educa-tional process, and the formation of individual learning paths. In contrast to this, the author identifies a number of possible prospects for the analysis of Big Data and the use of Artificial Intelligence for education at the university of the future. Attention is focused on how this can affect the safety of the environment and conflict with ethical standards. Participants in the educational process, falling under the analysis of their digital traces, can both suffer because of them, even if their activities have not been in any way connected with the university, and begin to hide their true digital identity, creating «false» digital traces and becoming anon-ymous. The author assumes that an increase in such control covering actions, thoughts and emotions naturally results in the emergence of the concept of a «Dark» University, which distances itself as much as possible from such methods of analyzing personal data.
