                                                      Abstract

                      The urgency of the research is determined by the new stage of the digi-
                      tal environment, the rapid development of web tools, the improvement
                      of the technical capabilities of telecommunications, software and hard-
                      ware solutions for the effective self-presentation of the student’s work
                      and, consequently, the need to conduct research in the field of ped-
                      agogical theory and practice, search for new approaches to objective
                      assessment of their personal and educational achievements, interests,
                      preferences, problem areas, as well as increasing the effective use of
                      web technologies to build a table of the graduates’ competencies for
                      self-promotion, and job search. The scientific problem of the research
                      is the inadequacy of the potential for the implementation of a person-
                      centered, competence-based approach in the educational process of the
                      university due to the creation and maintenance of a web portfolio of
                      students, on the one hand, and an insufficient level of organizational
                      and methodological support, on the other. The scientific toolkit, the
                      basis of the research is an integrated approach to organizing the study
                      of the theory and practice of using the digital portfolio in domestic and
                      foreign education systems. An integrated approach ensures the ob-
                      jectivity of studying problems using the methodology of such sciences
                      as pedagogy, psychology, sociology and computer science. The use of
                      convenient and easily customizable web services for building a portfo-
                      lio helps in fixing “digital” tracks, shaping the student’s and student’s
                      personal Internet space, provides the opportunity to enter various edu-
                      cational and professional communities to present the completed work,
                      exchange information, present successful work, success. and achieve-
                      ments. The main task of using the portfolio in the educational process
                      is solved - it is the diagnosis of the formation of creative ability, pro-
                      fessionally important competences of the future specialist, collection,
                      systematization of results in all activities and representation of the
                      graduate in the most advantageous light to employers.

1     Task
The modern dynamics of the development of web technologies, social networks clearly demonstrates the need of
society for communication, self-representation, self-realization. The use of convenient and easily customizable
web services for building a portfolio ensures the collection of “digital traces”, the accuracy of the presented
educational information, works, projects, successes and achievements.
   The study of the didactic potential of the web portfolio began in 2013 during the implementation of the RHF
grant “Organizational and methodological support for the creation and maintenance of an electronic portfolio
of students and teachers in social networks” (13-06-00481). The project has developed a set of organizational
and teaching materials for the creation, maintenance, colorful presentation and storage in digital format of a
portfolio of students and teachers. Including: diplomas and certificates, certificates, feedback on the level of
competence, the level of work performed, research projects, term papers and dissertations. The result of the
study was developed recommendations for maintaining a portfolio of student and teacher, effective and competent
advertising of their achievements.
   After the grant was completed, the work continued at a new level. Further studies were devoted to the study
of the effectiveness of the use of modern web tools and services in the educational process and in professional
activities. Open seminars and webinars are held regularly, a successfully developed information system for web
portfolio management has been developed (4portfolio.ru). The portal is filled in and provides schoolchildren with
a service for maintaining a portfolio, university graduates, and convenient tools for further filling and maintaining
a portfolio in their future professional activities.
   Scientifically substantiate and develop organizational-methodical and software for creating and maintaining a
continuous web-portfolio of trainees in order to increase the objectivity of the evaluation of educational achieve-
ments; for the formation of skills of self-presentation, competent presentation of their achievements, the effective
reflection of diverse work experience (including on various projects), communication and social skills.

2     Development Of Methodology
2.1   Subtitle Suggested Methods And Approaches
To solve the tasks, the following research methods were used: theoretical analysis and generalization of the
results of domestic and foreign studies on pedagogy, psychology, computer science, sociology; the study of
special literature; study and analysis of best practices for creating and maintaining an electronic portfolio,
digital portfolio, online portfolio, web portfolio; observations, interviews, questioning; pedagogical experiment;
processing and theoretical analysis of the results of the experiment.
   Understanding the issues of the project leads to the need for a scientific study of the implementation of
a personality-oriented and competence-based approach to building an individual educational trajectory of the
student, increasing the visibility of the presentation and objectivity of the assessment of the student’s profes-
sional competencies in the web portfolio of achievements; organizing joint information activities and information
interaction between students and teachers on a special portal.

2.2   Justification Of The Applied Methods And Approaches
Application of personality-oriented and competence-based approaches to the scientific substantiation of the use
of the web portfolio by students and teachers implemented in a special environment is aimed at ensuring the
effectiveness of self-representation and increasing the objectivity of the assessment of achievements, on providing
conditions for information activities and information interaction, on meeting the needs of society for specialists
able to successfully adapt and fulfill themselves in a rapidly changing social environment. Personally oriented,
competence-based, result-oriented approach to the presentation of personal, educational, scientific, professional
achievements of users of a specialized information system for maintaining a web portfolio should, first, increase
the objectivity of diagnostics and evaluation of educational achievements of schoolchildren and students, open
new horizons for improving quality learning and academic performance. Secondly, to provide teachers with new
tools for information interaction with students to help them in building an individual trajectory of learning and
professional development. And the third point - maintaining a continuous web portfolio should be a competitive
advantage of a university graduate.
   The validity of the application of the selected approaches is determined by the fact that the tasks set were
accomplished through the implementation of a person-centered approach to building an educational trajectory
and a competent approach to forming the list of necessary competencies presented in the portfolio, as well as
indicators and criteria for evaluating personal, educational and professional competencies.

2.3   The Current State Of Research On The Identified Issues
To date, the issues of the theory and practice of the implementation of technology and portfolio in the national
education system are considered in the works: Zachesova E.V., Yeseninoy N.E, Orlova L., Pinskoy M.A. and
other authors.
    Particular attention is paid to the implementation of the portfolio technology in the foreign education system,
including in the USA, UK, Australia, New Zealand and other countries.
    Among the most notable works, note the work of Professor Helen C. Barrett (White Paper: Research and
Electronic Portfolios and Learner Engagement), (Differentiating Electronic Portfolios and Online Assessment
Management). Systems), (Electronic Portfolios Digital Learning-Centered Portfolios) and other works of the
author.
    The results of portfolio effectiveness studies are presented in the works of authors such as: Carney, J. (Setting
an Age for Electronic Portfolio Research: A Framework for Evaluating Portfolio Literature. Presentation at the
American Educational Association Conference, April 14, 2004), Mahoney, J. (Power and Portfolios: Best Prac-
tices for High School Classrooms. Portsmouth: Heinemann, 2002), McDrury, J., Alterio, M. (Learning through
Storytelling in Higher Education. London: Kogan Page. 2003), Mahoney, J. (Power and Portfolios: Best Prac-
tices for High School Classrooms. Portsmouth: Heinemann, 2002), Saffer, D. (“Why I Blog my Graduate Course”

Tosh, D. and Werdmuller, B. (“ePortfolios and weblogs: one vision for ePortfolio development.”, Retrieved June
2, 2004 from: http://www.eradc.org/papers/ePortfolioW eblog.pdf ), Tosh, D. and Werdmuller, B. ("Creation of
a learning landscape:" Retrieved July 16 , 2004 from: http://www.eradc.org/papers/Learningl andscape.pdf ),
Zeichner, K. S. Wray ("Teaching and Teacher Education", 17, 613-621. 2001). The work describes the expe-
rience of using the portfolio in the education system, a number of authors note that maintaining an electronic
portfolio in a social network opens up new opportunities for assessing achievements and learning outcomes from
the entire time a student studies at a university and creates serious prerequisites for his further career growth.
Of particular interest in the aspect of the practical implementation of the portfolio are the works of such authors
as John Zubizaretta, Judith Brown, Peter Seldin, Rick Stiggins, Anne Davies, etc. with teachers, mentors and
fellow students.
    The study of the effectiveness of the introduction of technology portfolio was conducted in the framework of
several dozen research projects. Including such famous projects as:
    ComPort (comparative study of the electronic portfolio of implementation in the WBL). This project explores
various approaches to e-portfolios / PDP to support students in the workplace using four different electronic
portfolio systems in four colleges.
    DELIA (provides Information for admission to universities). The issues of expanding the enrollment of appli-
cants based on the results of the portfolio were studied.
    ELP (learning progress of the student). This project evaluated the application features and potential of the e-
portfolio (Bodington, Blackboard, and PebblePad) to support learners through their lifelong learning, especially
when they graduated. Project results include case studies and guides.
    Mansle (self-study and use of electronic portfolios). This project initially considered the electronic portfolio
as a system for use in preparatory courses. The system implements a range of web services offered by existing
platforms for creating and maintaining a portfolio (ePET). The project studied the development of an electronic
portfolio as a tool based on the use of plug-in modules using a browser, and was tested to support students’
personal and professional development.
    However, in the national education system, the technology of creating and maintaining a portfolio in higher
education has not yet received adequate justification and methodological support. This circumstance once again
underlines the relevance and importance of the work done to study the theory and practice of creating and
maintaining students of a continuous web portfolio.
3   Results
During the project, scientific and practical results were obtained.
   The scientific results of the study are disclosed in the scientific publications of the project executors; they
are a systematization of modern approaches to the creation and maintenance of a web portfolio. The scientific
significance of the results is determined by the analysis of current trends in the development of this technology
and the outlined perspectives. The basic concepts and definitions, including the concept of portfolio, e-portfolio,
web portfolio, are specified.
   Portfolio is viewed from two perspectives [Bar11, Pan13, Gos13, Sam13, Der09, She12, Smo13].
   First, a portfolio is a way to record, accumulate and evaluate individual achievements of a person in a certain
period of his activity.
   Secondly, the portfolio is considered as a pedagogical technology, a tool for reflection.
   The concept of a web portfolio has been introduced and disclosed, the goals and objectives of the web portfolio
of the student and the teacher have been formulated, the features of the new technology have been identified. The
set of conditions for the effective use of the web portfolio in the educational and practical activities of students
and teachers has been determined. Developed and justified a system for diagnosing educational achievements of
students undergoing training using a portfolio. Requirements for the competencies of teachers using electronic
portfolio technology on the basis of a social network to assess the educational achievements of students and
build an individual educational trajectory are developed. A system for diagnosing educational achievements
of students undergoing training using a portfolio has been developed. Developed guidelines for students and
teachers on the use of the portfolio in the educational process. For administrators of educational institutions to
maintain a web portfolio.
   The practical results are determined by using the methodological recommendations created within the frame-
work of the project, methods developed for assessing students’ educational achievements using the technology of
the portfolio, and setting the teacher’s rating on the materials presented in the portfolio.
   Handouts for students and teachers were developed, which were used at seminars with students and teachers
of Ryazan State Radio Engineering University, Ryazan branch of MESI, Financial University and numerous
seminars and webinars held with more than 500 teachers from Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Bulgaria
and so forth countries. Published blogs. The research results were widely covered in professional communities in
several social networks: VKontakte, Odnoklassniki, Google+, Facebook, nsportal, prosholy.ru, Professionals.ru
and other social networks for teachers and educators.
   Technical solutions of the portal 4portfolio.ru, created during the project, provide for placing on the pages of
a portfolio information in a variety of formats: text, photos, video, audio information, links to Internet resources,
to social networks. When creating an information system for maintaining a web portfolio, the Mahara tool was
chosen, which allows you to fulfill all the requirements outlined above. In the course of their studies, pupils and
students gradually fill up the piggy bank of their works, successes and achievements. The pages of the student
or student portfolio site remain with him after graduation and are not tied to an educational institution.
   It is determined that the web portfolio includes [Pan13, Gos13, Sam13, Smo13, Kny07]:
   • Portfolio with an unlimited number of sections and thematic web pages.
   • A closed area for storing the necessary information, files, notebooks, resumes, etc.
   • Web-based tools and services for communication, exchange of letters, for creating communities, communi-
     cating on forums and comments on portfolio pages.
   In the course of the project implementation, the main opportunities for using the technology of students’ web
portfolio are highlighted [Pan13, Ima 13, BEC06, Epo 05, Nov 03, Nov04, Fed13]:
   • negotiations with peers, colleagues and teachers at a convenient time;
   • demonstration of educational, scientific, personal (sports, music and other) achievements;
   • assisting in planning personal development, building an individual educational trajectory;
   • development of communication and social skills;
   • encouraging reflective learning and the possibility of anticipation of anticipation;
   • the use of accumulated documents in the transition from one school to another and after graduation;
   • increase the chances of successful employment or continuing education at the next level;
   • postgraduate support, career assistance after graduation;
   • assistance in self-determination, self-representation, self-realization.
   Filling your web portfolio is a creative process that reflects the author’s personality, his ability to systematize
information, present it vividly and authentically. Web portfolio allows you to collect and organize the results
in a variety of activities [Gos03, Kuh08, Bau12]. For example: educational, scientific, creative, public. It is
important to teach the student to correctly collect, organize and present this information in a favorable light. It
was especially difficult to convince the students [Ehi12, Bau12].

4   Discussion
At the moment, the issue of creating and maintaining a portfolio of achievements in schools, colleges and
universities is very relevant. To date, there are no clear and detailed documents regulating the creation and
use of a continuous web portfolio, not enough domestic scientific and practical developments.
   To date, we have gained practical experience in creating and filling a portfolio in schools and kindergartens,
some experience in creating and maintaining an electronic portfolio of students. The beginning of the process of
introducing portfolio technology in the Russian education system was the resolution of the Government of the
Russian Federation 334 "On conducting an experiment on the introduction of specialized training of students
in General education institutions implementing secondary (full) General education programs" (2003).
   In 2004, in order to implement this resolution and as part of the implementation of the state contract, a
group of scientists and specialists from the State University – Higher school of Economics (HSE), the Academy
of advanced training and retraining of education workers, teachers of higher and secondary schools prepared
recommendations for the construction of various models of the portfolio of students of primary and secondary
schools.
   The above-mentioned document "Recommendations for the construction of various models and the use of the
portfolio of students of primary and secondary school" provides the following interpretation of the concept of
portfolio:
   "The traditional portfolio is a selection, a collection of works, the purpose of which is to demonstrate the
educational achievements of the student. Being, in fact, an alternative way of evaluation in relation to traditional
forms (test, exam), the portfolio allows you to solve two main tasks:
  1. To follow the individual progress of the student in the process of education, and without direct comparison
      with the achievements of other students.
  2. Evaluate its educational achievements and Supplement (replace) the results of testing and other traditional
      forms of control. In this case, the final portfolio document can be considered as an analogue of the certificate,
      the certificate of test results (or act along with them)."
   It should be noted that the authors of the document gave a very broad interpretation of the portfolio, thereby
indicating almost unlimited, free context of portfolio use in education. These studies marked the beginning of
the practice of using the portfolio in the Russian education system. The document proposes to use three main
types of portfolio:
   Portfolio of documents — a portfolio of certified (documented) individual educational achievements.
   Portfolio of works — a collection of various creative, design, research student, as well as a description of
the main forms and directions of its educational and creative activity: participation in scientific conferences,
competitions, training camps, the passage of elective courses, various practices, sports and artistic achievements,
etc.
   Portfolio of reviews — includes assessment of the student’s achievements, the analysis of various types of
educational and extracurricular activities and its results, summary, planning of future educational stages, as well
as reviews submitted by teachers, parents, possibly classmates, employees of the system of additional education,
etc.
   Portfolio of the student, and then the student is not only a modern effective form of self-presentation and
self-evaluation of results in all activities, but also contributes to [Sam13, Ima13, Kuh08, Bau12, Bau12]:
   • increase motivation for educational achievements;
   • formation of reflexive skills, skills to objectively assess the level of their work;
   • gaining experience in communication, development of communication and social skills;
   • identification of individual inclinations, preferences of the student, the construction of an individual trajec-
      tory of development.
   The portfolio includes: test papers, tests, essays, projects, abstracts, reports, creative works. Each work is
accompanied by a brief comment: what worked well and what did not; whether he agrees with the assessment of
the teacher, what conclusions he can draw from the results of this work, what plans to build. The main thing in
this work – self-assessment of the student, and in the form of reasoning, reasoning, justification. Web portfolio
is a digital format of self-presentation, creation of virtual "I", self-promotion for finding interesting work. Social
services allow you to communicate, expand the circle of communication, demonstrate success, allow you to share
ideas, achievements and thoughts.
   In the course of the study of different approaches to the creation and use of portfolios in educational practice,
various principles of classification of portfolios are defined, presented below.


4.1   The Classification Of The Portfolio In Terms Of Distribution.

Individual or personal. This electronic portfolio is created on a personal initiative and is intended for distribution
to friends, acquaintances and personal professional contacts. The content of the personal electronic portfolio and
its distribution is not regulated.
   Training group, company or organization. This portfolio is created at the initiative of the teacher, company
or organization management and reflects the current achievements of students or employees. The content of such
electronic portfolio and its distribution is regulated by the internal regulations of the educational institution
or organization. After the participant leaves the group (educational institution, organization), access to the
portfolio may be restricted or closed.
   The level of the region. The electronic portfolio of the region level is created at the initiative of regional
authorities and serves for monitoring of education, carrying out certification of teachers and other purposes. The
content of such electronic portfolio and its placement on the Internet is regulated by the regulations of regional
authorities.
   Federal (state) level. Recently, the Ministry of education and science of the Russian Federation is taking
the initiative to introduce a portfolio of students in educational activities and use its content to assess the
extracurricular achievements of students. It is planned to use these data for admission to higher education
institutions of Russia. The content of such electronic portfolio and its placement on the Internet will be regulated
by regulations of the Ministry of education and science of the Russian Federation. The practice of state-level
projects to create an electronic portfolio in the education system exists, for example, in New Zealand - the
MyPortfolio project for schoolchildren http://myportfolio.school.nz and students http://myportfolio.ac.nz.
   The level of the Internet community. Electronic portfolio of this type is distributed in the social network of
the Internet community. As an example, it is possible to note a portfolio of teachers http://www.proshkolu.ru
and http://nsportal.ru. The contents of electronic portfolio the Internet community is determined by the queries
of the participants.
   The classification of the portfolio of technological approaches for implementation.
   Depending on the implementation technology used, the electronic portfolio can be of the following types:
   Local portfolio (distributed on DVD, flash drive). This portfolio is often used in educational institutions.
The local portfolio is usually presented in the following formats: Microsoft Power Point (.ppt, .pptx, .pps); text
document (.doc, .docx, .pdf), rarely — in graphic formats (.png, .jpg, .tiff), in open Office (.odt, .odp) and
others.
   Network portfolio (located in the local network of the institution or the Internet). A portfolio is a collection
of documents that are shared online. In terms of document presentation formats, the network portfolio is similar
to its local counterpart. The advantage of the network portfolio is its availability for a wider range of people
[Smo13, Bau12, Ehi12].
   Web portfolio (located on the Internet). Electronic portfolio material is stored in a database and is hetero-
geneous. The software and tool environment supports the client and server levels. Access to the content of
the portfolio is provided via an Internet browser. The software implementation can also provide the following
functions:
   • user authorization and access to information;
   • organization of social networks and communities;
   • publishing blogs;
   • get feedback and comments from community members;
   • publication of summary;
   • organization of thematic forums, chats, conferences, webinars;
   • create and manage content.
   A web portfolio can also include a collection of files, media resources, and links to external sources with
customizable access.
4.2   Portfolio Classification By Technical Infrastructure
An electronic portfolio is created as a separate document on the local computer. To develop a high-quality
electronic portfolio, you need to have installed office applications on your computer, graphics packages, audio
and video processing tools, animation, and skills to work with these programs.
   Client-server software for portfolio management. There are a number of instrumental systems that provide
ample opportunities for creating a portfolio, but their functioning requires a dedicated server connected to the
Internet, or the use of an Internet provider hosting. As an example, the platform Mahara. This is a free, open
source project, distributed under the GPL license, but it requires installation on the server, software configuration
and administration. Localization of the program is required for use as a national platform.
   Using thematic Internet projects that provide services for the creation and placement of an electronic portfolio.
This category includes most of the Russian projects reviewed above: “4 Portfolio” (http://4portfolio.ru), “Ed-
ucational and Methodological Portal” (http://www.uchmet.ru), “ProShkolu.ru” (http: / /proshkolu.ru), “Social
network of educators” (http://nsportal.ru) and others. To create and place an electronic portfolio registration is
required on the resource.
   Use of cloud platforms, such as Google Apps, that provide tools for creating, editing, and posting documents,
photos and videos, and communication tools. These tools can also be used to create and host an electronic
portfolio.

5     Conclusion
Organizational and methodological support developed within the framework of the project allows students and
teachers to effectively use the web portfolio tools, including: expanding the circle of their communication, clearly
demonstrating their successes, sharing their ideas, achievements and thoughts with a multimillion audience of a
social network . Presentation of important individual achievements on the portal 4portfolio.ru will allow each
user to collect and organize "digital traces", to fill his personal personal virtual space, his virtual "I". Educational
institutions have the opportunity to register on the portal, administer the work of students, moderate the work
of students and teachers of their university, conduct all sorts of competitions, carry out a rating assessment of
the achievements of students and teachers.
