NEW PROCESS FOR REQUESTING ECHO360 SPACES

Posted 16 December 2020 at 3:10pm

As from 16 December 2020, Echo360 sections for Award units will be requested from within MyLO Manager

How Do I request an Echo360 section for my new unit?

How long does it take for my Echo360 section to be created?

Your Echo360 section will be created overnight, and the staff you have selected as Instructors will be added

I’ve already requested my MyLO Unit for 2021 .. what do I need to do to create my Echo360 section?

All 2021 Award units (excluding Semester 3 units) requested in MyLO Manager prior to close of business 15 December 2020 have had sections created in Echo360. The staff assigned to the unit in MyLO have been added to the section in Echo360 as Instructors. Please check your Echo360 section to ensure it looks correct. Additional Instructors can be added by maintaining your unit in MyLO Manager
2021 Semester 3 units requested in MyLO Manager prior to 15 December will require Echo360 sections to be requested and created manually
If you do not require an Echo360 space for a 2021 unit previously requested in MyLO Manager you do not need to take any further action

Do I still need to manually link my Echo360 space to my MyLO unit?

Yes, at present you still will need to link your Echo360 section to your MyLO unit following this process: https://www.utas.edu.au/mylo/staff/staff-resources/echo360/how-to-link-to-your-mylo-unit

How will my section be named in Echo360?

Your section will be in the format YYYY_SS-###### eg: 2021_S1-412841 with ###### being the Org ID number for your MyLO unit, that appears on the end of the URL
The Course name will be the original name when your unit is requested in MyLO Manager, and will not update if your name is subsequently edited
