Following approval by the TELT Governance Group, the following new features have been introduced in Echo360:
Automatic transfer of ASR Transcripts to the CC track in Echo360 Media
Unedited Echo360 ASR Transcripts will be automatically pushed to the media’s CC track when a confidence threshold of 90% or greater has been calculated by ASR
The confidence threshold calculation performed by ASR is the sum of all individual word confidence scores / Number of total words in the transcript
A new Echo360 recording must be published to an Echo360 section to generate an ASR transcript
If you wish to edit the ASR transcript which has automatically been pushed to the CC track you will need to remember to also update the version applied, by clicking the Apply to CC button once your edited transcript has been saved
Further information is available in our staff and student help guides:
Echo360 Collections can now be created by Echo360 Instructors
Collections are designed to be collaborative Echo360 spaces where specific people (members) are brought together to view, post, or otherwise work with the media in the collection. They can be used to hold Echo360 recordings for a unit or course, or could be used to provide a better structure within a user’s Echo360 library
Collections enable media to be shared across multiple users, removing the requirement for the owner of media to be the only person who can embed the media in D2L Brightspace or edit the media
Anyone with an Instructor role can now create a Collection within Echo360, eliminating the need to lodge a ticket via the Service Portal
When you create a Collection in Echo360 you will automatically be assigned a Manager role within the Collection and be able to add other colleagues with varying permission levels
