PebblePad

PebblePad is a Personal Learning System which is used at University of West London to help you:

• reflect on the way you learn
• keep a record and commentaries on what you’ve learnt
• prepare you for future employment.

With PebblePad, you will be able to:

• build your own electronic portfolio (eportfolio) of achievements (ie create, store, and review materials which you can then present as e-portfolios, called WebFolios)
• share documents, images, videos, and sound files, with tutors, other students, and anyone you choose to share with.

These e-portfolios will be used as a form of assessment in some modules.

You can also use PebblePad to present a CV or a set of documents to employers.

You will be able to use PebblePad throughout the duration of your studies at University of West London, and to take it with you (for a small sum of money) when you leave University of West London after your graduation.

You can access PebblePad at www.pebblepad.co.uk/uwl using your University of West London username and e-mail password as login.

Comprehensive help on using PebblePad including online videos on how to create Webfolios can be found at: www.pebblepad.co.uk/help.asp
