Portfolios and the HEAR: a technical innovationJohn CouperthwaiteImplementation Consultant, PebblePad
What is the HEAR ?The HEAR (Higher Education Achievement Report) is an electronic document, prepared, validated and signed off by a higher education institution, which
provides a record of a student’s achievement during their time in higher education.
• as a basis for reviewing progress and planning future activities, whether individually or with support from a tutor;
• to support student engagement in opportunities beyond the curriculum;
• as an aide memoire for students in making applications which may be needed before the final award is made, e.g. for sandwich placements and internships; permanent employment; further study or training opportunities;
• by employers and tutors to verify statements made by the student (subject to the appropriate permissions).
