The problem of student’s responsibility in the context of digitalization of education

Introduction . The article discusses some socio-psychological problems related to the change in the subjectivity of the student as the main actor of educational practices.Purpose setting. The purpose of this article is to discuss the acute problems of a student’s responsibility in the context of the emerging non-traditional nature of educational communications. Methodology and methods of the study . The discussion is conducted within the framework of the methodological principles of cognitivism and social constructionism, which today determine the vector of research related to the impact of digitalization on educational practices. Results . The thesis is updated that the change in the subjectivity of an individual (as a learning subject) in the context of convergence of AI applications in educational practices occurs in two main planes. The first of them is associated with the deformation (decrease) of student’s level of responsibility for performing educational practices «as specific learning actions». The second is that the determination of reducing responsibility is largely determined by the «moving»of the driver into the «comfort zone». In this zone, there is a «delegation»of choice and decision-making from the individual (subject, student) by AI application. Conclusion . Against the background of issues related to the «reliability of solutions»offered by AI and the lack of «digital literacy», the possibility of self-identification of the student and the level of his responsibility (as a real subject of educational practices) can be clearly questioned and requires methodological and methodical reflection.
