The digital footprint of learners represents a significant phenomenon in contemporary education, influencing individual educational trajectories and approaches to learning process management. The development of digital technologies has transformed data generated within educational environments into objects of analysis, opening opportunities for personalized learning while simultaneously raising ethical and philosophical questions. The research methodology is based on an interdisciplinary approach, incorporating philosophical analysis of the digital footprint concept and comparative-analytical examination of traditional and digital educational practices. The empirical foundation comprises materials from educational platforms and data on learner interactions with digital resources. The findings demonstrate that the digital footprint functions not only as a pedagogical monitoring tool but also as a philosophical marker of educational identity transformation. This study contributes to the philosophy of education by highlighting the necessity of balancing effective data utilization with the preservation of personal autonomy, while also outlining prospects for further research in digital ethics and educational policy.
