What is a PDP?
• An online diary (blog) where you write up your reflections on set tasks, and agree the necessary follow up action points with your Personal Tutor. The blog will then form a record of your progress and achievements throughout your course.
• You are welcome to add additional posts and features to your blog – it can ‘showcase’ your work to prospective employers, business partners etc

Why is it important?
• A place to address any minor issues or concerns before they have the chance to develop into major problems
• Employers are seeking high level skills of communication and networking in their potential employees
• To develop your digital identity that enables you to demonstrate your skills and ‘stand out from the crowd’ in the job market
• Useful feedback for tutors on what you like/dislike about your programme

The world is changing…
• Educators are no longer the ‘gatekeepers’ of knowledge
• Acquiring information is no longer the issue – critical evaluation is the key skill
• Contributing effectively to your community• Educators and students are learning together• “Sage on the stage” to “guide on the side”

21st Century Careers (JISC, 2009)
• Competition for employment in a global knowledge economy
• increased levels of self-employment and portfolio working• growth of multi-disciplinary teams focused on specific
tasks whose members might be physically located anywhere in the world
• life within a networked society • blurring of boundaries between ‘real’ and ‘virtual’, public
and private• increasingly ubiquitous use of digital technologies.
