The rise in e-learning technology has led to a revolutionary increase in both accessibility and quality of education as a whole, and online learning has become a normal part of most students’ everyday lives. Whether it’s through online-only courses or through hybrid classes where lessons or assignments are completed online as well as in-person, most students in the U.S. participate in at least some form of online learning.
One way to support online success in students is to give them a more personalized educational experience through leveraging metrics. Echo360’s Echosystem is designed to help you track student performance online in a variety of ways, allowing you to use empirical evidence to shape individual opportunities for each student to succeed.
Metrics are measures of quantitative assessment used to assess, compare, and track student performance. When teaching in person, it’s often obvious when students are having difficulty with a concept, but when your students are online, picking up on signs of struggle can be trickier. This is especially true for activities that students can complete asynchronously, which makes it even more critical to get a clear view of which students have engaged with which assignments, how long they spent on them, and whether they have successfully completed them.
Properly used, metrics can be leveraged to drive excellence in your online classroom. Working with a learning platform that keeps you up-to-date on each student’s interaction with each piece of material allows you to intervene promptly when you see that a student is having trouble comprehending a particular concept.
Metrics can also be used to improve course material. High-quality classroom-wide metrics allow you to tweak course material as necessary to provide your students with a better learning experience, leading to stronger retention of the information they need to succeed.
Within the Echosystem, every element is designed to give you the information you need to give your students a premium learning experience. Our solutions provide the instructor with all the student success metrics they need to achieve excellence in the classroom.
For example, Knowbly features gating, or learner progress control. This enables you to pace the narrative by measuring progress through assessments. This helps to ensure learners have a complete understanding of the material before they can move on. Reports also show instructors at a glance who has engaged with certain material, including live lessons and asynchronous online assignments.
EchoExam gives you metrics that provide more information on your students’ performance on exams. Detailed reports indicate how many students answered each question on an assessment correctly, and which incorrect answers other students chose. This can inform instructors if they need to review certain content or if the class is ready to move on to the next unit. This can be helpful for course creation as well: If you notice that a number of your students are struggling with a particular topic, it may be a sign that a change in the content could be helpful.
Online courses often rely on video, so EchoVideo features metrics that can tell you all about how your students are interacting with your videos. These metrics include viewing and engagement data, such as the number of views, answers to polls, and individual results to quizzes. You can even see metrics for each individual piece of media, which gives you insight into what’s working — and what isn’t.
Instructors can also look at the performance of individual students. EchoPoll’s reports show how well students performed on each assignment and how they are doing overall in the class. This gives you the opportunity to take appropriate action to keep each student on track for successful completion of the course.
Using the information provided by detailed metrics, you can give students a personalized educational experience that helps them achieve excellence in the classroom effectively and efficiently. To learn more about how the Echosystem leverages student success metrics, book a demo today.
