Summary/Abstract: The modern constructivist approach to learning pays attention to the individual’s subjectivity and responsibility in knowledge building and skills development. The key element of the process is the reflection that might be understood as the engine of the development and competence improvement. The method/tool which stimulates the reflection is the learning portfolio that has become a central concept of this paper. Next to the theoretical analysis regarding the portfolio features, its potential and its importance, we present the practical example of using the portfolio as a competence development tool that was created by young faculty during Pedagogical Development Programme at the Poznań University of Economics and Business.
