Echo360 (external link) is replacing MediaSite as the College of Medicine’s tool for recording and cataloging lectures. See more about this change here.
Echo360 is a cloud-based tool for recording, hosting, editing, and transcribing videos. Echo360 provides:
- built-in AI transcription,
- built-in app for editing transcriptions,
- built-in app for embedding interactive content into videos, such as quiz or discussion questions,
- an LTI for integration with CarmenCanvas LMS,
- a “lite” LMS (external link),
- variable playback speed, and
- robust analytics based on views and engagement.
All academic videos within Echo360 are automatically transcribed.
Transcription and closed captions only need to be edited under two conditions:
- The videos are used on an on-going basis (more than one semester)
- There is a request from a student or Student Life Disability Services (SLDS) on behalf of a student
If your videos meet either of the aforementioned criteria, please submit a request to go.osu.edu/ocsconsult (external link).
A student digital accessibility assistant (SDAA) will assist you in editing your transcripts.
Thank you for creating accessibility within the COM.
