In this session, Shane Sutherland, CEO and Co‑Founder of PebblePad, shares a strategic perspective on enterprise‑wide and experience‑wide approaches to learning, assessment, and student development.
Drawing on nearly two decades of experience, Shane reflects on how PebblePad has evolved to support skills development, reflective practice, wellbeing, and future readiness across the entire learner lifecycle—from pre‑arrival and transition, through curriculum and professional practice, to graduation and beyond. The session introduces a conceptual model for mapping learner experiences across institutions and explores how skills and learning journeys can move from the periphery to the centre of curriculum design.
Key themes include:
- Enterprise‑wide and experience‑wide learning design
- Embedding skills, reflection, and future readiness at scale
- Moving skills from the edge to the core of the curriculum
- Supporting learner journeys across contexts and time
- Belonging, wellbeing, employability, and professional identity
- Strategic considerations for institutional adoption and change
This session offers thought‑provoking insight for senior leaders, educators, and learning designers seeking to re‑imagine how digital platforms can support coherent, connected learner journeys across an institution.
