Accessibility in PebblePad

Prior to developing and sharing content using PebblePad, please carefully read over the Accessibility in PebblePad guide. These guidelines provide strategies for creating accessible content and information on how to get assistance with accessibility concerns.

Any user with accessibility concerns may contact ePortfolio@osu.edu. Learning Systems Support staff will coordinate with a student's instructors to arrange appropriate accommodations. Students with existing relationships with Student Life Disability Services can reach out to their Access Specialist for assistance with PebblePad. The Learning Systems Support Team can work with the accessibility specialists to provide additional training and technical support for the tool.

The Asset Store in PebblePad refers to the places where Assets are stored and managed. Once you create a page in the Get Creative space or upload an asset they get added to your Asset Store.  

Your Asset Store provides extensive information about each Asset. Managing your Asset Store is important. All your Assets are added into the same bucket in the Asset Store, so filtering will be important. Therefore, naming conventions and tags will become essential for finding projects.

Search Assets in Your Asset Store 

There’re a few different ways to search for your Assets in your Asset Store.  

  • Keyword search: You can search for Assets by entering keywords in the Keyword search textbox in your Asset Store.  
  • Advanced search:  Allows you to filter by Asset type, ownership, date created, and tags.
