What is PebblePad?

• as a traditional eportfolio
• to document placement activities
• for course related work that may require iterative recording and reflection
• curating content

Some of the applications of PebblePad include the creation of an ePortfolio (employability, demonstrating competence/learning, task/experiential portfolio etc), maintaining a placement workbook, recording professional development activities, or creating a reflective journal.

Benefits of using PebblePad

• A student’s work can be viewed at any time and not just at final submission
• Programmatic, ongoing student learning that does not need to be confined to a unit but has a course-wide approach
• Students can re-use/collate/curate their work
• Content can be
• unstructured i.e. the student creates content from scratch;
• structured i.e. an academic defines the form/workbook (provides templates) and the student completes it;
• or a combination of both
• Non-Monash users (e.g. preceptors and clinical supervisors) can assess student work or complete reports on student performance
• Forms can be made available via the PebblePocket app, which does not require web access
• Content can be shared externally via a weblink
• Multiple feedback options
• Multiple report options
