Recording lectures

Echo360 is a presentation capturing device that allows staff to record digital video and audio of presentations and tutorials. Links to these recordings can be uploaded onto web pages or integrated into the learning management system for students to access online at their own convenience.

Students today have iPods, laptops, computers and interactive phones at their fingertips and are accustomed to being able to access information quickly and easily.
