1.0 Analytics Tab Our Lecture Capture system, Echo360, has number of different metrics that combine to determine

the overall ‘engagement’ (please note, this has no link to Manchester Met’s Student

Engagement\Attendance Monitoring system) score for students and your lecture captures. Some

of these metrics will not be recorded due to the way the lecture capture system has been

integrated as part of our technology enhanced learning environment. For full list of these metric

please refer to the advanced userguide.

This guide outlines some of the immediate analytics that can be viewed as your lecture captures

are taking place and your students begin to engage with your captures.

This guide covers the Classes and Students tabs.

3.1 Video views on a class The Video views for that class are shown for each student. This lets you know which students have

viewed that capture, and which have viewed it multiple times. It also shows what percentage of

the capture the student viewed. This page lets you know how much of the capture each student

actually watched.

All Content

All video views are shown for each student. Again this figure is cumulative; a student with 20 video

views could mean 20 views of a single video, or one view of 20 different videos. A view is counted

as long as the student played the video and a gap of at least 15 minutes occurred between

repeated views of a video by a single student.

3.2 Notes word count The number of words entered by students into the Notes panel and/or Study Guide for the section

or class.

This is another reasonably straightforward metric, simply letting you know which students are

taking notes in the Echo360 interface, and how extensive their note-taking is. You cannot see

student notes. All you can do is identify who is taking notes.

The word count is determined by counting the number of distinct groups of letters students are

entering. A "word" is qualified as a set of letters between spaces. (This is as opposed to typing test

word-per-minute counts, where a "word" is qualified as a group of 5 keystrokes.) All this really

means is that a student who uses very big words in their notes will have a smaller "notes word

count" than a student who uses lots of small words.
