Global changes in the education system today entail new requirements for the personality of the teacher. Such changes are connected, first of all, with the transition from traditional (full-time) education to distance learning (online). The digitalization of the educational environment, the main characteristic of which is the development of new technologies, methods and organizational forms of education, contributes to the transformation of the functional roles of the teacher, and hence the formation of his/her new list of functions and roles. Among the new functional roles that a teacher should perform in a digital educational environment (DEE), the following can be distinguished: organizer of project-based learning, game master, coordinator of the educational online platform, knowledge validator, developer of educational trajectories, educational content unpacker/packer. The revealed new functional roles of the teacher contributed to the experimental work. The purpose of the article is to present the results of a theoretical analysis of the literature and experimental work on the formation of a new list of functions and roles of student teachers in a digital educational environment. The article defines the leading theoretical and methodological approaches, components of the functional roles formation (motivational value-oriented, cognitive, operational and reflexive-regulatory ones), and also reveals the ratio of components, criteria and indicators of the formation of new functional roles among teacher candidates. The scientific novelty of the study is in clarifying the content characteristics of the "functional roles list" concept. The data obtained during experimental work will allow to effectively carry out the process of forming the functional roles of the student teachers, and theoretical conclusions can be used as a basis for studying the problem of forming functional roles of teacher candidates in the digital educational environment.

The portion of independent work of university students increases every year. This is due to an increase in the proportion of hours allocated to it and to a change in the criteria for evaluating learning results. Digitalization of education makes its adjustments to this process as well. It is necessary to note the importance of purposeful management of independent work, creation of a unified well-coordinated work program for controlling learning activities of students. The study, the results of which are described in this work, was conducted by the Altay State University оf Pedagogy and Humanities named after V.M. Shukshin with students - natural science majors. Its goal was to develop a unified program for managing independent work of students in the context of digitalization of education. The program is based on the management model described in the works on management by A. Fayol. The program highlights the key stages, from working out regulatory documentation for the creation of a unified educational digital environment of the university to the establishment of interaction channels for all participants in the educational process. Creating a unified digital environment that allows effective interaction within the educational process is an urgent present-day task. The management program has been tested for two years. The study started in the active phase of obligatory distance learning, introduced everywhere due to the epidemiological situation in the country. Thus, it was possible to identify the weaknesses of the developing information structure “in the field”, to make the necessary adjustments. The data obtained as a result of the study indicate an increase in the quality of students' involvement in the educational process during independent work. This can be proved, among other things, by the publication activity of students. The results of the two-year developments and the worked-out program can be used by the administrative departments of educational institutions in the work aimed at improving the quality of the organization of students’ independent work through electronic educational resources. In addition, the results of the conducted research may be used in the educational process of secondary vocational and general schools, as well as in the system of upgrade training for teachers.
