Echo360 helps instructors capture and extend those moments to improve student engagement before, during and after class.

Through our technology platform, students have 24/7 access to classroom discussion, presentation materials, and the lecture itself.

Getting Started with “Echo 360 Universal Capture: Personal“

Universal Capture: Personal is a stand-alone application designed to be used by instructors on their personal computers to generate video recordings. The software enables you to create video recording across multiple computing platforms via a unified interface. That means instructors can record and share video on Mac and Windows computers, inside or outside of the classroom, with an identical user experience on each device.

For those faculty members who do not yet have an Echo 360 account, it is necessary for you to login to Webcampus first. Therefore, please follow the directions below in order for you to have access to Echo360 environment.

When preparing for a Zoom class, the 15 minutes before it begins are crucial for setting yourself up for success. In these final moments, finding a quiet, well-lit space with a strong internet connection is key. Ensuring your camera, microphone, and environment are ready will help you avoid any distractions or technical difficulties during class. With everything in place, you can focus on fully engaging in the session, confident that you’re ready to participate seamlessly.

15 Minutes Before Class Starts

1. 15 minutes before class starts, find a quiet place with strong internet that is free of distractions. Remember that everyone in the class will be able to see you! Find an appropriate background and make sure the room is well-lit. Make sure that you have your device plugged in so you don’t need to worry about battery issues mid-class

2. Open Zoom. You can open Zoom by clicking the link your professor sends you or downloading the Zoom app or program on your device. If you have headphones, plug them in now

3. Test your microphone and camera
   
   • To test your microphone, click “Test Computer Mic & Speakers” in the pop-up window that appears when first opening a test meeting or beginning your scheduled meeting
     
   • To test your camera, just look at the Zoom window to see that you are visible, non-pixellated, and can move and speak without noticeable delays
     
   • You may need to permit Zoom to access your camera and microphone beforehand. Typically, the request for permission will appear in a pop-up window the first time you open a Zoom Meeting, and will carry over to future meetings. If you declined permissions in the past, you will need to go into your PC or Mac’s settings to allow Zoom to access your camera and microphone
     
4. Close any windows or programs open on your device that are unrelated to class.

During Class

1. Click Start Video to begin broadcasting from your webcam

2. Use the Chat bubble as appropriate. You can chat with everyone in the meeting, the professor, or a specific person

3. Find out who else is in the meeting by clicking Participants. This is also where you can “raise your hand” to ask or respond to a question

4. Be prepared to share your screen with the class (If you do so, we will see all tabs you have open. We could also see your email, messages, etc. Please ensure that anything you would like to keep private is closed before class begins)

The Zoom Menu

The Zoom menu contains several features that can be used during class meetings. For laptops, PCs, and Macs the menu can be found by hovering over the bottom of the Zoom window. In the Zoom app, the menu can be accessed by tapping the bottom of the app window. Here is a picture of the menu bar.

• Mute: Silences and unsilences your microphone. Your professor will “Mute” the whole class to reduce background noises, but if you’d like to speak, you need to click “Unmute” first

• Share Screen: Allows you to share a variety of windows and applications. Participants can share views of their desktops and specific windows currently open on their computer, write on a digital whiteboard, and even share a screen directly from their iPhone or iPad

• Chat: You can send messages to everyone, just the professor, or a specific person

General Zoom Etiquette

• Getting a clear video is a lot like taking a good selfie. Light your face more brightly than the background to make it easier to see you
  
• Remember that everyone else can see you
  
• Be yourself, move physically, and make facial expressions
  
• Microphones pick up all ambient noise, so keep your mic muted until it’s your time to speak.
• Remember that when on camera, other activities such as eating, drinking, shuffling papers, etc are extremely distracting

If you’re having trouble joining a Zoom meeting or class, refer to the article below for troubleshooting tips.

The Interactive Television (ITV) classrooms are located in the following areas: Dickinson Hall 2245 and 1132 (Metropolitan Campus), Muscarelle 105 (Metropolitan Campus), Cybercrime area Dickinson Hall 2269 and 2270 (Lab) (Metropolitan Campus), Dreyfuss 214, Sarah Sullivan (Florham Campus), Moninger 105, Moninger 107, Moninger 119 (Florham Campus), School of Pharmacy 208, as well as FDU Vancouver.

These ITV rooms serve various purposes, including conducting inter-campus classes, classes with students at remote locations equipped with ITV, inter-campus meetings, or meetings and events with other colleges, universities, or organizations equipped with ITV.

Authorized officers of groups or organizations on campus can schedule the ITV rooms for conducting official University business. Scheduling operates on a first-come, first-served basis, with priority always given to classes using the ITV room.

Contact the Fairleigh Dickinson University Technical Assistance Center (UTAC) for reservations. For instructions on how to use ITV, refer to the resources below:

ITV Meeting Policies

This policy pertains only to the ITV rooms managed by the Office of Academic Technology (on the Metro campus DH 2245 and DH 1132, and in Florham Dreyfuss 214, Sarah Sullivan, Monninger 105, Monninger 107, and Monninger 119). For policies of other rooms, please contact the individuals responsible for the relevant rooms.

Ending Your Meeting on Time

Please be sensitive to the fact that other meetings are often scheduled immediately after the end of yours, and the participants in these meetings also have busy schedules and important business to discuss. Even when no meeting is scheduled after yours, our employees must properly close the room and shut down the equipment and therefore must wait for you to finish before they can move on to other activities. Therefore, when your meeting time has come to an end, you must vacate the room. Individuals or groups that fail to vacate the room in a timely fashion more than two times will not be allowed to book the ITV room for future meetings.

Cancellation Policy

Please let us know as soon as possible if you must cancel a meeting, but at least 24 hours before your meeting. Individuals who cancel more than two meetings without notifying the Office of Academic Technology will not be allowed to book the ITV room for future meetings.

Meeting Conflicts

Meetings are usually scheduled solely on a first-come, first-served basis. If somebody else has booked a meeting when you need the ITV room, you must negotiate with the host of the conflicting meeting. The Office of Academic Technology will not intervene.

ITV Priority for DH 2245

DH 2245 is also available for scheduling non-ITV meetings or events. However, if ITV capability is needed at the same time, you will be asked to find another room. The rationale for this policy is that there are many other non-ITV rooms, but only two ITV rooms on the Metropolitan campus.

Scheduling Meetings

No meetings will be scheduled for ITV until after the ITV course schedule for that semester has been finalized. You may request your meeting in advance, but if a class ends up being scheduled at the same time as your meeting you will need to reschedule your meeting. Classes always get priority for the ITV schedule.

Inter-Campus Meetings

If you are scheduling an inter-campus meeting between the College at Florham and the Metropolitan Campus, you must request the ITV at least 24 hours before your meeting. This lead time is necessary for the Office of Academic Technology to allocate appropriate personnel to the ITV room. You may schedule such meetings by contacting the Fairleigh Dickinson University Technical Assistance Center (UTAC).

Food & Drink Policy

The ITV classrooms contain sensitive and expensive equipment that could easily be damaged by spilled drinks or contamination by food particles. Also, the rooms do not receive regularly scheduled janitorial service.

For these reasons:

• No food or drink is allowed under any circumstances in the ITV classrooms. Sealed containers are allowed provided that the container is not opened at any time while in the ITV classroom. If you are observed with food or drink you will be asked to remove this item from the ITV classroom.
  
• Instructors are asked to enforce the no food or drink policy with the students in their classes, if members of a given class repeatedly violate this policy, the instructor will not be permitted to schedule the ITV classroom for future classes.
  
• DH 2245 is configured differently and has different equipment, and as such food will be allowed in DH 2245. Any buffet set-up should be done in the adjoining kitchen area. Please ensure that all guests or meeting attendees exercise care with the food and keep the food in the table area.

ITV Class Policies

ITV Classrooms Procedures for semester-long courses

This policy pertains only to the ITV rooms managed by the Office of Academic Technology (on the Metro campus DH 2245 and DH 1132, and in Florham Dreyfuss 214, Sarah Sullivan, Monninger 105, Monninger 107, and Monninger 119). For policies of other rooms, please contact the individuals responsible for the relevant rooms.

Proposing a Course for ITV delivery

Instructors, Chairs, or Directors may propose a course for ITV delivery after receiving approval from the relevant Chair, Director, or Dean. ITV courses are proposed at least one full semester in advance of the start date for the course.

Requesting The ITV rooms for a Course

To request the ITV rooms, contact the Fairleigh Dickinson University Technical Assistance Center (UTAC).

Training Policy

No instructor may be scheduled to teach in the ITV room unless he or she attends training on using the sophisticated ITV equipment. Training should be scheduled as soon as possible after the instructor is identified, preferably a month before the start date of the course. To arrange for training, please contact the Fairleigh Dickinson University Technical Assistance Center (UTAC).

Cancellation Policy

If you must cancel a class, please let the Office of Academic Technology know as soon as possible and at least one full business day before your class. Instructors who cancel more than two class sessions without notifying the Office of Academic Technology will not be allowed to book the ITV room for future courses.

Food & Drink Policy

The ITV classrooms contain sensitive and expensive equipment that could easily be damaged by spilled drinks or contamination by food particles. Also, the rooms do not receive regularly scheduled janitorial service.

For these reasons:

• No food or drink is allowed under any circumstances in ITV classrooms. Sealed containers are allowed provided that the container is not opened at any time while in the ITV classroom. If you are observed with food or drink you will be asked to remove this item from the ITV classroom.
