How to add Engage recordings with the Echo360 link in Moodle

To add the Echo360 link in Moodle:

NEW from July 2020: You can now link to individual Echo360 Engage content

  1. Login to Moodle at moodle.nottingham.ac.uk
  2. Go to your Moodle page and click on the 'Turn editing on' button Turn editing on button
  3. Go to the section where you would like the recordings to appear and select the + Add an Activity or resource hyperlink
  4. From drop-down list, select the 'Echo360 Cloud' resource and click on the 'Add' button

Add an activity or resource window

5. Give the activity a name, for example 'Engage Echo360 Lecture recordings', and 'Save and return to module'

6. Click on the 'Turn editing off' button on the top right side of your Moodle page


If you have already recorded lectures to your modules in the past, you should find that the module is already linked correctly to the new Echo360 Engage system.

If you find that your module is not linked (sometimes this can happen) or you are a new user, please follow the instructions below to link moodle to Echo360 Engage:

(New users need to make sure you have been set up in the Engage system (email engage@nottingham.ac.uk))

Selecting the videos

  1. Go back into the Engage link you set up above. When you click on the link you will see a screen asking you to choose a section.
  2. Type in your module code ("Course"), select the "Term" and "Section" then
  3. To add:
    1. a link to ALL the recordings for that module, click on 'Link Content'
    2. a link a single video, click on 'Link to a classroom', select the video and then click on 'Link content'

Link Echo video to Moodle page


New feature in Moodle 3.8: You can also add individual Echo360 videos into your Moodle page. Please embed them in Pages, or Books if possible.

Avoid Labels where possible, as too many videos embedded on the front page of a module can slow down the loading of the page by up to a minute.
