PebblePad - your new portfolio tool
As a York St John University student, you may need to use a portfolio tool called PebblePad. With PebblePad, you are able to:
- store evidence
- display your skills
- present information and documents
- show your achievements and experience
PebblePad helps you to combine and organise a range of information types into 1 place, and make it available for someone else to see.
Accessing PebblePad
York St John University provides access to PebblePad so you can benefit from all of its features.
Go to https://shib.pebblepad.co.uk/yorksj.php. Or, alternatively, you can log in to Moodle and use the Services menu to access PebblePad.
You will log into PebblePad with your standard York St John University username (for example - firstname.lastname, without the @yorksj.ac.uk) and your York St John University password.
Learning to use PebblePad
Your assessment brief and lecturers will tell you if a portfolio is a method you will be assessed by, and if PebblePad is the tool you will use. Your course will have workshops to teach you how to use PebblePad for your portfolio assignment.
In addition to this, to learn how to use PebblePad, start with the Digital Training team-s PebblePad Introduction help pages.
These pages will help you to:
- use pre-made workbooks if you are doing a placement that uses PebblePad (Nursing, Initial Teacher Education, and Sport)
- use pre-made workbooks if you are making a creative portfolio, or
- create a portfolio
If you are having problems when using PebblePad, please see the Student Hub article: I am having problems with PebblePad
