SUCCESS STORY

University of Tasmania

“What I’m doing is getting students to record themselves making music and then using that as a tool to reflect on what they are learning and linking it to school curriculum, lesson planning, and a whole range of things.”

About

The University of Tasmania’s isolated location and small population have always forced the educational institution to think differently and students reap the benefits of that. Every student develops advanced creative thinking and problem-solving skills while joining a welcoming, collaborative community of fellow learners looking to make a difference on the island and beyond.

Students Recording Assignments Leads to More Effective Education

Students studying to become music teachers at the University of Tasmania are expected to use music to reach their students, but the traditional assessment consisting of an argumentative essay and sequence-planned lessons didn’t provide a way to evaluate this goal. Today, University of Tasmania instructors use EchoVideo to record students incorporating music into their lesson plans, bridging the gap between what they are expected to know and what they’re tested on.

Echo360's e3 Formula in Action

EchoVideo allows students to record video on their smartphones and upload it to a secure private network, allowing instructors to provide feedback without violating a student’s privacy or forcing them to familiarize themselves with new technology.

3 Key Takeaways

Searchable Indexes

If a University of Tasmania student wants to watch back a particular part of a past presentation, EchoVideo allows them to type in a word and begin playback from any specific point. This makes going back for review far more straightforward than it otherwise would be.

Ease of Use

University of Tasmania students might not be experts at recording video, and they don’t need to be with EchoVideo. The system automatically alerts learners if something goes awry, making troubleshooting a snap while preventing the headache of lost recordings.

ASR Capabilities

EchoVideo includes automated speech recognition (ASR) technology to create transcripts for all videos, allowing students at the University of Tasmania to read along with their presentations and engage more of their senses during the educational process.
