Accessing Your Course
For more information on how to access your course directly from Blackboard or Moodle – see this page.
If you access Otago Capture through the echo360.org.au link, you will need to choose your course from your Dashboard.
Class List
Once you are in your Course on Otago Capture, you should see a Class list. This list typically includes all recorded or upcoming lectures for a course, but may can also include uploaded slides and imported videos for further course reference materials.
Example class list with future recordings scheduled.

Each row of the class list is a different “class” and may contain a video, slides, or both. To view a particular class’s materials, click the class row of the class you want to view. To add an imported video or slideshow presentation, click the blue plus(+) icon in an empty row, or create a New Class and then click the plus icon.
