Toolkit for Teaching Inclusively in Response to Coronavirus
The Lecture Capture System (LCS), powered by
Echo360, has so much more to offer. Moving
beyond simple lecture recording you can now
create and engage your students with the many
new interactive tools, and track their
engagement and learning.
Lecture Capture Policy at UWA The University has under taken a proactive approach to
lecture captures as endorsed by Academic Board. All
lectures in recording-enabled teaching spaces must be
recorded and downloadable to students. The LCS will
automatically record your lecture, if it has been scheduled
in the central timetabling system. All you have to
remember is to turn on your microphone and check you
can hear yourself through the venue speakers.
Recording and Streaming Lectures Record scheduled lectures
Record and upload additional learning videos
Live Streaming (coming soon)
Video Management Personal Library with content search
Easy to edit, publish and share recordings
Group and re-order your recording pedagogically
and systematically
Student Learning and Engagement Make learning active before, during and after class with
engagement and peer-to-peer learning tools.
Student bookmarking, annotation, note-taking
contextually lined to presentations and videos
Interactive online discussions (anonymous or
public)
Real time polling embedded in live lectures and
presentations
Ability for student to flag confusion
Analytics Improve learning outcomes and intervene early with
insight into student learning behaviours using the
dashboard or download all the data.
Measures overall student engagement and
pedagogical efficacy
Student dashboards to assess individual
performance and identify student at-risk
Integration with LMS gradebook
Universal Capture Software (UCS) This software allows you to record your lectures or
presentations at your desk or in the venues that do not
have capability for automatic lecture capture.
With UCS you can capture computer screen, audio and
optionally a 'talking head' via webcam simultaneously.
Recordings can be published straight to your LCS unit and
or your personal “My Content” area.
Copyright For most materials presented in lectures, the University
has in place copyright licence arrangements that cover the
recording of such materials as part of a lecture. However,
there are some exceptions to this and staff are advised to
check the copyright agreements before using any external
material in a lecture, regardless of whether it is being
recorded.

2. Select the microphone input. Most laptops have a built-in microphone, but you might also be using a microphone on a headset or webcam. Universal Capture will automatically select your default microphone.
3. Before you start recording it is a good idea to name your recording. Click “Edit capture details”.
4. From the Capture Details screen you can enter a title for your recording, and you can use the “Publish
To…” dropdown menu to automatically share the recordings with students in a unit you are linked to. By default it will publish the video to your personal library and you can share it to multiple locations later.

5. When you are ready to record click on the big red button. This will initiate a 5 second countdown. Universal Capture will minimise when the recording commences. Once the recording is in process you can deliver your PowerPoint presentation as normal.
6. During the recording you can ‘Stop’, ‘Pause’, or ‘Delete’ the recording.
7. When you stop the recording it will automatically start uploading the video into your ‘My Content’ library in Echo360. Depending on the duration of your recording this may take some time (generally about half the duration of the recording).
You can commence a new recording while a previous recording is uploading.
Share your recording 1. In order to access your recording you will need to log into Echo360. Start by opening a browser and going
to http://echo360.org.au
2. Enter your UWA email ([email protected]) and click “Submit”

4. Enter your Pheme details and click “Log in”.
5. On the Echo360 landing page, click on “My Content” in the left-hand menu.
6. Locate and click on the recording you wish the share. If you have a lot of recordings in your library you might find it useful to use the Search bar or ‘Sort by’ filter.

The Lecture Captures System (LCS) makes it easier
to rename and re-order your content. If you have
lectures scheduled in a recording-enabled venue,
you will see all your scheduled lectures ready to
go. All you have to remember is to TURN ON your
microphone and check you can hear yourself
through the venue speakers.
Rename your lectures Scheduled lectures have generic title names and
should be renamed to reflect the topic/s in the
recording, to let students know what to expect.
Click on the edit icon (pencil icon) to edit the name
and description of your class/ lesson. Click ‘OK’
EEU Recommendation – ‘Lecture Number’ – ‘Topic’
‘Lecture 1 – Introduction to Accounting’
Re-order By default, class (lecture recordings) are listed by date
and time, with the oldest class appearing at the top
and classes without dates appearing at the bottom of
the list.
Instructors can change the order of their class list to:
① Sort the classes in chronological order, either with
the newest class first or the oldest class first.
② Move classes into groups to provide a logical set
of similar topics.
Click ‘NEW COLLECTION’, type in the collection
name and save ‘OK’.
Click ‘REORDER’, click and drag classes to move
them around in the list. Click ‘Save.’
① Example by Week
② Example by Topic

Engage your students seamlessly during your
lectures, workshops, seminars using the
interactive tools built Echo360.
Have you ever tried to stimulate your students to learn
more while also while also having them engaged them
before, during and after class? Interactive slides are used
to engage students regarding specific topics and concepts
within a presentation.
Inserting interactive slides will trigger learning that is more
active and increase overall participation during class.
You can add activity slides through the Echo360 interface,
or you can download and install the PowerPoint Ribbon
add-on, which allows you to create, edit, and publish
presentations from within PowerPoint, including adding
activity slides.
Image 1: Five types of interactive activities.
Organising Your Presentation Adding questions into your presentation is simple and they
are easy to organise. Once you have clicked ‘Done’ on the
question you wish to add you can simply drag and drop the
question into any point in your presentation.
Image 2: Presentation layout in Echo360
Adding Questions Adding questions to your teaching sessions allows you to
gain immediate feedback from your students about their
understanding of a topic as well as maintaining their
concentration.
You simply click on the ‘Add Activity’ button and then
select the question type illustrate in Image 3 and 4.
Image 3: Add an activity
Label the question, add in the answers and then click
‘Done’.
Image 4: Multiple choice window example
Interactive Controls Once you are using an interactive slide a bar will appear at
the bottom of the screen showing all of these symbols
below
This first one shows you how many
students have participated in the
activity.
The hand symbol allows you to stop the
activity when you choose so no more
responses can come in from the students.
The graph symbol shows you and your
students the answers that have come in for the
activity so you can see the levels of
understanding from your students.
The upwards arrow allows you to show the
solution to the students and explain how they
would have gotten to this answer.
You can also reset the activity and allow
your students to try again
Published by the Educational Enhancement Unit on 10 February 2020 Page 2 of 2
Hiding Questions You can hide the interactive slides from your students until
you are ready for them to participate.
This is done by clicking on this
eye symbol with a strike through
it. When this symbol is red it
means it is hidden.
When it is grey with no strike
through this means the students
can see and participate with the
question.
