Case Study: Griffith University achieves improved accessibility and increased student engagement with Echo360

Grith University Improving Accessibility and Increasing Student Engagement with Active Learning

Griffith University, a progressive Australian institution, needed a simple, scalable way to expand active learning across its classrooms and reach students who study remotely or on irregular schedules. The university required a platform that was easy for academics to adopt and that supported a range of engagement activities—from quick polling to facilitated group discussion—both in-person and online.

Griffith selected Echo360 for lecture capture and active learning; academics can quickly upload slides, add polls or richer activities, and students can engage live or on-demand via web or mobile (including offline viewing). The platform drove a steady increase in student activity—one cohort showed 96% participation—improved access to teaching, and became a key component of the university’s student engagement and retention strategy.
