The digital learning environment comprises various resources - didactically transformed and untransformed information, and mediated communication. Students’ information behaviour combines both actions characteristic of the traditional educational process and specific for the digital environment, based on digital tools and user interactions. Students’ information behaviour in the digital environment is considered as an indicator of their engagement in various educational activities that contribute to the personalisation of learning. The results of a survey on students’ preferences of information resources in the digital environment show that learners use a variety of information sources, but they mainly apply the methods of work in the “traditional” learning paradigm. They insufficiently use the digital environment potential of collaboration, knowledge exchange, and knowledge extraction from authentic sources. Obtained data indicates problems in students’ information culture and shortcomings in the methodological support of students’ autonomous work. Based on the results, recommendations on creating conditions for developing students’ prospective strategies of interaction with digital resources are proposed. These recommendations include a gradual increase of the authentic digital learning resources, an account of students’ information preferences, and a particular attention to the management issues in the digital learning environment.

The paper analyses the value mindsets of pre-service teachers in terms of the digital learning environment (DLE). DLE is considered to be both a system of new tools and methods for teaching activity and a prospective educational eco-system for learning. The DLE value model is based on a psychodidactic approach, which concerns three main constructs—digital content values, communication values, and management values. The research involved 200 pre-service teachers who were asked to complete a questionnaire, evaluating 27 DLE values and opportunities. The results show that pre-service teachers value digital learning content but are not sufficiently ready for its creation; they develop tolerance in communication yet do not have enough skills to show empathy; they appreciate independence in learning management and still need training in professional digital self-presentation. Consequently, professional training and especially internships for pre-service teachers should include a synthesis of traditional (face-to-face) and virtual communication and interaction with children to facilitate mastering an expanded set of competencies for successful professional self-realisation. The findings can be beneficial in terms of e-learning practices, DLE design, and the organisation of internships.

Introduction: one of the priority directions of the world environmental policy is the legal regulation of public relations. In people's minds there appeared the understanding that the optimal environmental conditions could be achieved not by simply fighting pollution, but with the help of positive human activity. The state piecemeal antipollution measures gave place to a multipurpose action system that received the legal formalization. One of the elements of this system is environmental entrepreneurship. The aim of the work is to analyze the issues related to the legal essence of environmental entrepreneurship: its types, activity areas and their legal support. Methods: the methodological framework for this research is a set of methods of scientific knowledge, among which the main are the methods of system analysis and synthesis. Results: the work provides the development analysis of environmental entrepreneurship in this country and abroad. The concept and types of environmental entrepreneurship are considered. Based on the analysis, the necessity to regulate and legislatively consolidate the activity mechanism of environmental entrepreneurship is justified. Conclusions: the objective process of economic and social development of the society has led to the emergence of a new activity in the field of entrepreneurship-environmental entrepreneurship. This is the sphere of relations in the ecological market, regulated by the rules of law arising from performing the works, producing environmental protection products, conducting scientific and financial activities, and providing services.
