E-portfolio as a tool of pedagogical management in the virtual information and educational environment of the university

One of the main tasks of the modern education system is not just to transfer to students as much knowledge as possible, but rather the ability to extract it, the ability to navigate the flow of up-to-date information. The quality and reliability of the future specialist’s knowledge, his ability to solve complex issues independently, and the success of his future professional activities depend on the organization of pedagogical management in the educational activities of students. The virtual educational environment is understood as an arbitrarily constructed structure of the information environment, consisting of a set of autonomous subjects which connections are nonlinear and probabilistic. The virtual educational environment implements students’ life strategies and values in digital social interaction. The purpose of the research is to determine the features of using the pedagogical technology of creating a portfolio in the electronic form as a tool of pedagogical management in the virtual information and educational environment of the University. The objectives of the research are to analyze the components of the electronic portfolio of students and compare them with the stages of implementation of the pedagogical technology for creating a students’ portfolio. The solution of the research tasks is based on the criterion of improving the professional literacy of the university students and evaluating their achievements using e-portfolio technology
