Civitas Learning Taps into Echo360 Student Data
Civitas Learning and Echo360 have partnered to support integration of
the Civitas Learning predictive analytics platform with the Echo360 teaching
and learning platform.
Civitas Learning offers a cloud-based predictive analytics platform and
applications designed to help colleges and universities monitor and support
student engagement, persistence and graduation. Echo360 is a teaching and
learning platform that lets students take time-synchronized lecture notes, ask
questions, review lectures, build study guides, flag confusing content and
collaborate with peers and faculty during and after class, according to
information from the company. Instructors can access this data about student
behavior and use it to gain more information about the teaching and learning
process in their classroom.
With this partnership, colleges and universities will be able to tap into
Echo360's real-time classroom insights and apply that data to the Civitas
Learning predictive analytics system to view a more complete picture of student
engagement and other indicators of student success.
"Combining historic and student profile data with real-time classroom
activity, gives institutions more actionable insights to help each individual
student on their path to success," said Fred Singer, CEO of Echo360, in a
prepared statement.
Further information about the partnership can be found on the Civitas Learning and Echo360 sites.
