The article aims to determine the correspondence of the value orientations of students and teachers to the pragmatic and civilizational goals of political education in the process of introducing digital information and communication technologies for sustainable development. The study involved 92 students of the School of Marxism, TongJi University, who are receiving political education at the master's level in the speciality "Political Science" using digital mobile and cloud information and communication educational technologies, and 83 teachers of political disciplines of this university. The authors used the Portrait Values Questionnaire (PVQ) and the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPQ). The accumulation, sorting and visualization of information in the course of the study were carried out in the Microsoft Excel program. The statistical significance and significance of the results of the study were assessed based on the Student's t-test, which was calculated using the online calculator Social Science Statistics. Statistically significant (p < 0.05) differences between the motivational educational values of students and teachers have revealed: the teachers expressed conformity largely than the students (4.6 ± 0.2 and 3.4 ± 0.1 points, respectively) and the importance of traditions (4.9 ± 0.1 and 3.5 ± 0.3 points), and the students - independence (4.5 ± 0.2 vs. 3.3 ± 0.1 points). According to the neuroticism scale, the indicators of the teachers (15.6 ± 2.4) are at the upper limit of the norm and statistically significantly (p < 0.05) exceed the hands of the students (10.2 ± 1.0). The difference in the hierarchy of values of students receiving political education using digital information and communication technologies and teachers of political disciplines was revealed, reflecting the presence of a conflict between the pragmatic and civilizational goals of political education in the process of introducing digital information and communication technologies, primarily about the opposition of traditions and universalism, conformism and the desire for power and achievement.
