PebblePad is an electronic portfolio system designed to support staff and students in their personal development. It is completely web-based and works by providing you with a flexible way to plan, record and reflect on your learning.
Your PebblePad account is personally managed by you. You can use it to create records of your learning, experiences and achievements in order to evidence the growth of your knowledge and skills. You can easily share your learning ‘assets’ with employers, tutors and peers, internal and external to the university, and invite comment and collaboration.
How to access PebblePad
You can access your PebblePad account by going to http://eportfolio.plymouth.ac.uk/ and entering your university credentials. Alternatively, you can go via https://dle.plymouth.ac.uk/ and choosing ‘My ePortfolio’ from the Tools & Resources dropdown menu.
Accessing your ePortfolio when you leave the University
If you are about to graduate or leave the University, you are entitled to a free Personal Pebble+account for life. This is provided so that you can take your PebblePad assets with you and continue to use PebblePad to support your personal learning and professional development as you move on to the next stage of your career.
More information can be found on the PebblePad website. Alternatively, in PebblePad on the left hand menu click: Tools & Resources then Personal Account.
