Optimizing Student Engagement During Remote Learning

The secret to any successful remote learning program is simple: you need your students to buy into the premise that studying online can be just as effective as working in a physical classroom. Unfortunately, that’s easier said than done. Many instructors are uncomfortable with virtual teaching tools while students may feel distant from instructors and peers. Once those issues are sorted out, instructors still need to adapt their methodologies to take full advantage of a virtual learning environment (or VLE). 

Echo360 will help you solve these issues. The Echosystem is a framework that brings our best video management, content authoring, and assessment tools under one umbrella to help learners, instructors, and administrators improve student engagement during remote learning. Continue reading to find out more about what makes the Echosystem such a powerful teaching tool.

Four Products in One

EchoEngage

EchoEngage has been shown to improve student engagement during remote learning 7x thanks to an advanced feature suite. Instructors can create blended learning paths, giving both synchronous and asynchronous learners the benefits of live class meetings with self-paced assignments they can complete on their terms. Instructors can also collect real-time feedback from students, allowing them to identify those who may need extra help or shift gears if they are losing their audience. Furthermore, there’s a virtual classroom with numerous tools to promote communication between students and their teacher, avoiding the feelings of isolation that often accompany remote learning. If that wasn’t enough, EchoEngage supports gamification elements, integrates seamlessly with products such as GoToMeeting and Microsoft PowerPoint, and boasts an accessible interface that all stakeholders will enjoy using. 

EchoAuthor

EchoAuthor is an authoring tool for transforming your organization’s material and subject matter expertise into dynamic courses that capture attention and spark conversation. Rapid authoring tools allow instructors to deliver engaged remote learning right away by following interactive templates and dozens of block types. There are also customizable themes so instructors can change tabs and colors to promote accessibility. Every element of a lesson is stored individually as well, so instructors can reuse their most engaging content across multiple courses or ensure that subsequent classes will receive the same great experience the first one did. Most importantly, EchoAuthor has robust reporting capabilities to help instructors and admins accurately measure student progress and intervene as necessary. 

EchoVideo

EchoVideo represents the industry standard for creating, capturing, managing, storing, and searching video content for students and instructors alike. Offline mode allows instructors to capture video even without an internet connection while smart input feedback automatically switches to an alternate camera if one goes down. Once a video is recorded, you can take it live immediately or insert multimedia elements through an intuitive browser-based editing process. Automatic Speech Recognition (or ASR) technology automatically transcribes content to promote accessibility and searchability, allowing students to search for the specific content they need when they need it. You can also insert videos from popular services such as Dropbox and Google Drive to make use of your most engaging video content over and over again. Best of all, EchoVideo allows instructors to share their screens (including in-class discussions and remote conversations) with students without revealing participant names to jumpstart collaboration.  

EchoExam

EchoExam is an assessment tool utilized to create assignments, launch assessment questions, and collect real-time responses to evaluate student performance. The trick here is that EchoExam isn’t limited to creating assessments. You can also create study guides and practice tests to help learners focus on the specific concepts they’ll be tested on to promote student engagement during remote learning. EchoExam’s Test Manager allows you to view performance at the class and individual levels, or you can export the results to the LMS of your choice. Either way, you’ll have the evidence you need to assist struggling students or prove the efficacy of your remote learning program.
