In this article, based on the data obtained during the processing of distance learning results obtained using the dynamic learning environment Moodle, a methodology was developed and a digital trace of the flow students was built. The analysis of the obtained digital footprint using the interactive presentation of Mentimetr, the "Questionnaire" module in the Moodle system and a multi-criteria selection for six parameters allowed us to select a group of students predisposed to scientific and project activities.
