This study examines the impact of digital technologies on the quality of economic education through comprehensive analysis. The research involved 320 students and 45 instructors from 8 higher education institutions. Results indicate that classes utilizing digital technologies demonstrated 58% improvement in academic performance, 72% increase in knowledge retention, and 65% enhancement in practical skills development. Simulation software and interactive platforms showed highest effectiveness. Regression analysis revealed strong positive correlation between digital tool usage and educational quality (r=0.81, p<0.001). Video lectures, online assessments, and gamification methods increased student motivation by 76%. Findings confirm the necessity of technological integration in contemporary economic education and provide practical recommendations for implementing pedagogical innovations. The study demonstrates that strategic deployment of digital technologies, combined with pedagogical innovation and instructor training, significantly enhances learning outcomes and prepares students for digitalized economic environments.
