Ownership of video collections
Currently all users - including students - are allowed to create collections and each collection remains private to the user who created it until that user chooses to share the collection with others.
You are thus able to access Echo360 content in any collection that you have created or to which you have been made a member
As the owner (or ‘manager’) of a collection you control who has access to your collection and what they can do with it. You can make someone else a manager of your collection but once you do, you can’t undo this by yourself since managers can not remove or demote other managers. If you want to remove a collection manager, ask one of NIDA’s Echo360 admins for help
Collections have an option that allows whoever clicks on a link to be made a member of that collection
The following practice is recommended for managing course-based Echo collections: A single person is designated as the manager for all course-based Echo collections for a given degree/school. This person would likely be the course coordinator or similar. This person creates all course-based Echo collections for the degree/school so that by default they are given the role of Collection Manager.
All staff who are then added as members of this collection are added in an Editor role only in order to prevent them accidentally deleting videos from this collection. If a video really needs to be deleted from the collection, then staff ask the Collection Manager to do this for them. Or the Collection Manager does this as a standard part of managing these course-based collections.
the standard role for all students should be Reviewer.
D. Ownership of individual videos
...
What they are then allowed to do depends on their role.
Note that for students, who have minimal rights over videos that have been shared with them, the actions they are able to take with the video are viewing it, downloading it and removing it from their library.
If you thus want to prevent students from downloading content you have shared with them, instead of sharing the video with them, create a collection, add the video to the collection then add students to this collection in the role of Reviewer.
Equally, if someone owns a video and has shared it with you, you may not be able to share it with someone else.
