The Technology for Evaluation of Future Russian Teacher’s Readiness for Professional Activity

The article is devoted to the problem of formation of readiness for professional activity among students of pedagogical universities, as well as the question of how and by what means should determine the availability of this readiness. Based on the analysis of studies of the concept of “readiness for professional activity of graduates of pedagogical higher education institution”, in accordance with the requirements of the Professional standard of teachers it is shown that the readiness for professional activity of teachers of the graduate of pedagogical higher school must be considered as an integrative quality of the subject of this activity, including the motivation for the teaching profession and the self-improvement of personality of a teacher. To assess readiness, a dichotomic approach is proposed: the graduate is either ready for professional activity or not ready. As a tool for assessing readiness, it is proposed to form an electronic student portfolio, in which during the years of study at the University there is a fixation and accumulation of information about individual achievements of students, external and reflective assessments of the results of their activities from the position of their own advancement to the established educational goal.
