Over the last few years, the idea of a teacher has transformed from an instructor standing in front of a traditional classroom into an educator who uses technology to provide in-person and remote, real-time and asynchronous instruction through a hybrid classroom.
Hybrid classrooms provide us with the ability to reach all of our students, no matter where or how they are learning. However, most educational technology software isn’t equipped to create the type of course materials that are engaging, effective, and, above all, equitable and accessible. With the Echosystem, you can harness the power of a unique learning engagement platform that makes it simple for you to create, manage, and realize successful learning experiences for every student.
At Echo360, we believe those who teach deserve every bit of support they can get. By considering every element of the hybrid classroom through the lens of equity in education, we’ve created a comprehensive solution that we think you’ll love. Let’s look at how different elements of the Echosystem help you create a fully accessible hybrid learning classroom setup.
We believe that learning in a hybrid classroom should be a well-rounded experience. The Echosystem revolves around providing educators with robust yet simple technology that you can leverage to create the course of your dreams from a singular point. How do we do that? Good question. There are five vital elements that a learning management system needs to give students and teachers a hybrid classroom setup that truly works in their favor:
Equitable education begins with high-quality resources, so you need a straightforward asset manager that makes building engaging classes easy. No matter how technically savvy you are (or aren’t), EchoAuthor allows you to create great courses with drag-and-drop simplicity using your own library of photos, videos, and other graphic assets that you can use, reuse, store, and share.
From attendance to inline quizzes, it’s easy to measure hybrid classroom student engagement and performance so you can be sure your students are getting an equal chance at success. EchoExam tracks both classroom-wide and individual results, so you have the opportunity to intervene immediately should a specific student need extra attention.
EchoPoll provides equity in education by giving learners a shared, integrated virtual workspace that allows everyone to access all course materials and resources, no matter if your students are with you in the classroom or joining you from home.
Test creation in itself is difficult, but making testing equitable while preserving the integrity of the results can be even harder. Fortunately, EchoExam makes it simple using features like scrambling the question order or multiple choice option order, randomizing the chosen test bank questions, and even offering different versions of the same question.
If materials aren’t accessible, it’s impossible to make education equitable. Courses created in the Echosystem can be accessed anywhere using almost any device, so learners don’t have to worry about having specific equipment. Plus, EchoVideo features revolutionary captioning and transcription abilities, making lessons accessible to anyone at any time. And of course, every element of the Echosystem is designed to meet (and even exceed) WCAG 2.0 accessibility standards.
The entire Echosystem is designed to help you provide every student with an equal shot at success. Our solutions are built to give students effective learning experiences, addressing potential barriers to learning before they become a problem.
