I thought this might be of interest to the list.

Staff and students at the University of Edinburgh are now benefitting from access to award-winning online learning space PebblePad. All staff and 22,000 undergraduate students have access to their own PebblePad accounts which are hosted by Pebble Learning in a software as a service model. Established over 400 years ago, the University is one of the UK’s largest and Scotland's number one research university .
Students are encouraged to use PebblePad for reflection and to share work and thoughts with peers and tutors. The presentational e-portfolios, called Webfolios, allow learners to represent their skills and achievements in very flexible and creative ways – or according to a tutor’s particular requirements. With Action Plans users can follow a template to describe what they want to achieve and to plan out how to get there. PebblePad also has a ‘MyEdGE Graduate Attributes profile’ and a research student skills profile which students can use to help develop their skills outside their core academic subject.
