Helping a friend with a diploma, I came across a
Federal Portal of Russian Education , which is essentially an important and useful portal, but one of the most terrible usability I have ever seen ...
And I decided to look for what we have in RuNet dedicated to universities and higher education.
My thesis
Service for the publication of scientific papers, articles with the possibilities of comments and ratings, maintaining personal and thematic blogs, creating and combining into groups. As well as an interactive calendar of events
What pleased as an additional service is the section
Useful information in which, according to the authors, there are:
- passport specialties
- list of scientific funds
- list of dissertation councils
- Abstracts
SciPeople Science Network
This is a scientific network for scientists, graduate students and students, an electronic library of publications.
With a nice interface,
fully accessible in 2 languages
Good search by category:
- Scientists
- Scientific areas
- Projects
- Organizations
- Works
- Courses
- Grants
Education and Science
The site sits on the domain (Russian Informational Network) completely on Web2.0, with a bunch of ads. However, what he liked - it worked texts. As one of the moss professors said - "Content is content, content is king!". And you can not argue with that.
The site also covers all parts of education "from first-graders to members of the RAS"
The interface is old and inefficient - but it works, which pleases, unlike, for example, edu.ru
Scientific Social Community
A simple service made on Drupal, without large web2.0 features, but again, 2-language and very informative.
“The central idea of the project is to help you save time and make your scientific work easier and more convenient.”
The main sections of the site:
- Scientists
- Groups
- Grants, Experiments, Conferences
- Resources
The authors of the site also release a Digest, provide an opportunity to search for postgraduate studies and vacancies, and also have a Hot list - “Last Minute” :) Grants and Conferences
Social Network for Students and Graduate Students
Of the nice features:
- representation of universities on an interactive map,
- placing your schedule,
A network created more for communication, posting photos, creating groups and even
diasporas , however, teachers also have the opportunity to register, post information, tasks, conduct online consultations.

If not on Runet - of course services and sites are much more, for usability, very good. liked the service
AcademiaUPD:Very interesting web2.0 service that allows:
- create your own learning space in the form of a desktop
- Upload, download, share learning resources
- Create community inside
- Follow the latest developments in the field of study, science and entertainment
- Search and receive information about universities - and the data is very relevant and well presented
And a lot of other things - try, you will like :)
The service is still at the beta stage of testing, but the scope of the project and its quality is impressive. Long life Scribbler. And thanks
f1neman for the tip :)
