The relevance of the problem of social activity in the context of digitalization is due to the fact that despite the presence of a sufficiently large number of studies of social activity in the humanities, there are not many of those related to pedagogy. The issue of systematization and generalization of pedagogical knowledge about this phenomenon in general and in the context of digitalization in particular remains unclear. Pedagogy at the present stage of its development is becoming a science that integrates the achievements of other humanities for the purpose of a more objective and thorough consideration of social phenomena that act as the subject of research of these sciences. So social activity is studied in philosophy, sociology, political science, economics, jurisprudence, psychology, and other sciences, and a comprehensive consideration of social activity from different positions can significantly enrich the actual pedagogical ideas about it. Formulation of clear, generalized pedagogical ideas about social activity in the digital environment is necessary for solving the specific pedagogical tasks, namely, why, how, in what way to form, develop social activity of people of different generations, different age groups in the digital environment, as well as what competences are necessary to carry out this activity. The integrated and competence-based approaches are adopted as the leading approaches to the study of the problem of social activity in the context of digitalization, since: 1) reliance on the integrated approach ensures integration, universal connection, interaction and veracity of facts, phenomena in society, studied in different branches of humanitarian knowledge; consistency of the research logic and validity of scientific conclusions; 2) the competence-based approach allows us to analyze the essence of social activity from the point of view of the driving forces and mechanisms of its manifestation, on the one hand, and the possibilities for individuals to acquire new competences due to involvement in social activity, based on their value attitudes and personal orientations, as well as due to the specifics of the digital environment in which it is carried out in the modern world. The main result of the article was the presentation of a new approach to characterizing the levels of social activity, which is an attempt to cover the entire set of manifestations of social activity in the modern digital environment. The theoretical significance of the article lies in an attempt to collectively apply the results of social activity research in the humanities. The practical significance of the article is that the obtained scientific result can become the basis for the subsequent study of the specific features of people's social activity in the context of digitalization.
