Abstract

Modern teaching of any subject, including music teaching, with regard to the new technological age and digitization implies, in addition to the use of traditional teaching aids (e.g., traditional textbooks), the application of digital technology (e.g., digital textbooks). The computer has become an almost irreplaceable aid of digital technology in teaching, but its purpose is not to replace the teacher but to supplement his teaching. Currently, when the Internet is available almost everywhere and almost everyone has access to a digital technology device with Internet access, distance learning has become a common way of teaching and learning. Digital technology played a large role in remote music lessons during the COVID-19 pandemic. As part of the work, an anonymous questionnaire survey was conducted on a sample of 43 music students. The goal of the research was to determine students' attitudes about the use of digital technologies in future educational work and their self-assessment of knowledge and skills for using digital technologies. The results showed that the majority of students were assessed as digitally competent but that they mostly developed their competence through independent work. At the same time, they expressed positive attitudes toward the use of digital technologies in their future educational work. It can be concluded that academic institutions should consider introducing courses that would develop the digital competence necessary for successful operation in today's digital age.
