Why you should join us

The event is designed for our community of teaching practitioners and professionals, including senior leaders responsible for student success, heads of departments, learning technologists, academic programme leaders, educational designers, lecturers, academic and support staff.

What typically makes our PebbleBashes so special is bringing together the PebblePad community and the sharing of stories from our customers across the globe – most significantly, showcasing examples of wonderful work happening across institutions and the positive impact it has on students.

The event will include:

What to expect

This will be our first grand gathering in several years (Covid-19 meant we had to put our 2020 PebbleBash plans on hold) so we are working to make PebbleBash 2024 the best one yet! We are currently busy reviewing submissions and will work on crafting an engaging agenda to ensure every guest who attends leaves bursting full of ideas, and recharged.
As with all our community events, we hope to leave you truly inspired by the PebblePad community and how to support student success across the five key teaching and learning themes.
Networking is a key part of all PebblePad events, we have a wonderful community doing great things and you will have the opportunity to chat, mingle and make new connections.
Edinburgh is a wonderful city with lots to see and do, so alongside exploring the city on your doorstep, we plan to build in lots of fun activities across the event schedule which include workshop sessions and interactivity, plenty of breaks and time to celebrate at our evening dinner on Wednesday 12th June (booking is required).
Our guest speakers will showcase inspiring stories, celebrating key milestones achieved across a range of topics, highlighting lessons learnt along the way, sharing best practice and providing useful tips and tricks for you to take away.
Teaching and learning in Higher Education continues to be an area of constant change so we will share what exciting updates are coming up in product, have discussions around how to successfully navigate the ever-changing landscape when faced with challenges and positive change brought around by technology such as ChatGPT.
