The relevance of this study is due to the following reasons: the demand of modern society for the training of teachers who will use digital tools in educational organizations; the need to develop new media resources and methods of interaction in the virtual word; and the social demand for training teachers who can conduct research related to the educational process. The aim of this article is to describe the experience of organizing the digital environment in teaching pedagogical disciplines to graduate students. The research is based on the following methodological approaches: systemic, conceptual, empirical, scientific and activity-based approaches. The main result of this research is the presentation of the academic model of the digital educational and methodological complex for teaching pedagogical disciplines to graduate students. The part of the digital educational and methodological complex is a multimedia training unit that includes pedagogical lecture presentations, a multimedia textbook and a creative module that allows graduate students to create their own pedagogical assignments on the LeraningApps platform. This study also presents the potential of the ChatGPT neural network for developing the cognitive activity of graduate students, which is also the result of the research described in the article. Criticism, creativity, cognitive interest, motivation for learning, self-reflection skills and pedagogical competences as components of cognitive activity can be developed using assignments created by the chatbot. The next result of this research is the confirmation that the developed digital educational and methodological complex allows the digital learning environment to be adapted to the educational capabilities of graduate students and their personal characteristics. The digital educational environment involves the use of virtual communication tools to simplify the interaction process between the subjects of the educational process. The description of the virtual interaction peculiarities is also a result of the pedagogical research. The theoretical significance of the article is represented by the contribution to the development of the theory of digital learning at the master’s degree level. The practical significance of the article lies in the fact that the presented digital educational and methodological complex can serve as an example of one of the effective trajectories implemented in the pedagogical master’s degree studies in the digital environment of the university.
