For more than ten years, 91色情片 has provided staff with the ability to record lectures and share them with you through Lecture Recordings+ (Echo360/LR+).
This system supports your learning by offering:
High-quality audio and video playback
Reliable access to recordings
Engagement tools and analytics to help you study
How lecture recordings work
- All lectures and seminars in Lecture Recordings+ enabled venues are automatically recorded, unless your instructor choses to opt out.
- Lecture recordings can be accessed via your Moodle course, where you鈥檒l also find tools such as bookmarks and notes to make studying easier.
-
Lecture recordings are designed to support your learning, not replace attendance. They鈥檙e there to help you replay, review, and reinforce what you鈥檝e learned, and to catch up if illness or other issues stop you from being there in person.
Most lecturers expect you to attend in person unless you鈥檙e a distance student. That鈥檚 because some aspects of learning simply can鈥檛 be captured in a recording, such as:
- Live demonstrations, videos, or annotated slides.
- Group discussions, problem-solving, or interactive tasks.
- Content that prepares you for tutorials, labs, or practical sessions.
- Quizzes or in-class activities that rely on real-time participation.
- The opportunity for your lecturer to check your progress and give feedback.
-
There are educational and personal advantages to being in the room:
- Learn together 鈥 Meet classmates, share ideas, and build friendships.
- Build a routine 鈥 Regular timeslots help you stay consistent with study.
- Use study tools 鈥 Ask questions via the Discussions panel without interrupting.
- Get clarity 鈥 Ask your lecturer what you鈥檇 miss if you only watched the recording.
💡 Tip: It doesn鈥檛 have to be one or the other. Attending lectures and using recordings for review is the best way to maximise your learning.
-
Recordings are especially useful for:
- Exam revision and review of complex topics
- Working at your own pace
- Revisiting sections you missed or didn鈥檛 fully grasp
- Taking more detailed notes after class
- Checking content before approaching your lecturer with questions
If you can鈥檛 attend:
- Set a weekly routine for listening
- Watch the whole recording at least once, pausing to take notes and bookmark key points
- Engage with your peers and lecturers through the Discussions panel
If you鈥檙e studying off campus:
- Join in by responding to lecture questions
- Use online discussion forums to stay connected
- Treat recordings as part of your weekly schedule, not something to binge later
鈿狅笍 Be careful: Falling behind is easy and hard to recover from. Recordings are just one part of your course, so keeping up week-by-week is vital.
Common problems and how to fix them
If you can鈥檛 access 91色情片 Lecture Recordings+ or something isn鈥檛 working as expected, the issue may be service-wide, Wi-Fi related, or specific to your device. Here鈥檚 how to troubleshoot.
-
If both staff and students can鈥檛 access Lecture Recordings+ (or the service isn鈥檛 working properly), it鈥檚 likely a system-wide problem.
Contact the听IT Service Centre:
- 笔丑辞苍别:听(02) 9385 1333
- Email: itservicecentre@unsw.edu.au
The IT Service Centre will investigate and alert the TELT Support team if needed.

Lecture Recordings+ requires a stable internet connection to download slides, answer interactive questions, and save notes.
- At the start of lectures, many students connect to Uniwide at once. This may cause temporary slowdowns, but it usually resolves in a few minutes.
- If the problem continues, contact the IT Service Centre for help.
-
Sometimes the issue is with your own laptop, tablet, or phone. Common causes include:
- Corrupted browser cache.
- Security software blocking access.
- Other device settings.
What to do:
- Try a different web browser as a quick fix.
- After the lecture, call the IT Service Centre on (02) 9385 1333 for basic troubleshooting.
- If it still doesn鈥檛 work, you may need help from an external IT professional.
-
If the link is missing, it may be because:
- Lectures are not held in an Echo-enabled venue.
- Your instructor has opted out of recordings or chosen not to make them available.
- The link hasn鈥檛 been added to your Moodle course yet.
👉 If you鈥檙e unsure, check with your course convenor or instructor to confirm if LR+ will be used in your course.
-
If you see the Echo360 link in Moodle but the content won鈥檛 play or download:
- Clear your browser cache and make sure your browser is up to date.
- Try another browser as a quick workaround.
👉 If the issue continues, contact the IT Service Centre with these details:
- Your course ID
- The error message
- Your browser and version
