Introduction. The analysis of the development of Internet technologies and their adaptation to the education system is an important direction of modern philosophy. The purpose of the research is to find answers to the questions: how does the student community use electronic technologies; who and in what types of educational practices do students trust more? And also on the basis of existing and conducted new research to identify changes and track the transformational process in the problem of trust. Methodology. A sociological survey combined with an analytical approach allowed not only to present the problem of the phenomenon of trust itself, but also to specify it in application to the interaction of three compositional elements of educational interactions: the pedagogical community, the student community and Internet technologies. Discussion. The social attitude is that with the development of digital means in educational interaction, the need for direct communication between students and a teacher is reduced if their digital literacy is coordinated (according to the level of development) in both subjects. It is established that during the sessions (exams, tests, defense and preparation of term papers and theses), students are more willing to resort to personal communication with the teacher. Conclusions. The results of the study indicated that: trust in the book as a source of information decreases, which determines new value orientations and requires the formation of appropriate skills, including psychological readiness for such a “turning point”; school preparation does not provide a sufficient level of preparedness, therefore mastering the function of a personifier of educational interactions falls a serious responsibility on a university teacher, which is reflected in the “critical points” of the educational process.
