This week, Softech INTL, the leading technology industry news provider, announced the winners of the 2017 CTO of the Year awards, and we’re very excited to announce that Dr. Bradley Fordham, Echo360’s Chief Technology Officer has been named for two awards, including the Leading Expert in Active Learning Technology and Most Trusted CTO of the Year.

Students use Echo360 up to seven times more than other standard video platforms. This is a reflection of the unique design of our solution that integrates class videos and presentations with additional study guides such as synchronized note-taking, a class discussion thread, and polling. Students are actively embracing this solution which assists their review of materials and makes classes more engaging. Moreover, research today is clearly showing that students who engage more with their learning materials are seeing better outcomes in their courses.
