PebblePad is a versatile online learning portfolio platform available to students and staff at the University of Derby.
The e-portfolio has the concept of reflection at its core and it features a large range of templates to enable you to plan, record, reflect on, and evidence your learning experiences, activities and much more. Bringing together your learning journey stories in a powerful and interactive way.
PebblePad is used across many different courses for reflection and recording experiences and activities. There are many ways you can use PebblePad and the built-in resources provide a very useful structure for recording experiences and reflections.
Your PebblePad university account can be converted to an alumni account once you leave the university which means you can take a record of all your experiences and reflections with you when you graduate. This can be particularly helpful for job interviews.

This account must be activated within 3 months of your programme being formally completed but will continue to be free for as long as the University of Derby holds a license for PebblePad.
