The survey was devoted to the assessment of digital educational environment (DEE) by university students in connection with their personality characteristics. The survey was conducted using google forms and was anonymous. To identify personality traits, Big Five Inventory was used. Self-regulation resources were determined using self-activation and the style of self-regulation of behavior. To determine the attitude to learning in the DEE, the AUDEE Scale was used, and to determine the attitude to learning activities, Activity-Related Experiences Assessment technique (AREA). A questionnaire was also offered with questions about students’ socio-demographic characteristics and attitudes towards training at the DEE

History

Research questions / Hypotheses

1) Are personal characteristics correlated with DEE evaluation? 2) Is there a difference between Belarusian and Russian samples?

The experience in DEE is mainly restricted from half a year to 2 years (N=1139 (72%)).

Results

It is possible to distinguish two groups based on the results of AUDEE scale: Acceptance group and Resistance group. The groups differ in agreeableness and conscientiousness, and both of these qualities are higher in Acceptance group. The members of the Acceptance group also have a higher level of self-activation and self-regulation of behavior: they better plan goals, program their actions and model conditions for achieving goals. The groups differ in patterns of experiences in learning activities: the members of the Resistance group make more efforts in learning activities with less pleasure, they are characterized by such experiences as meaninglessness and emptiness
