pdf
I know that we are now able to download the actual Lumio deck as a PDF file, however I'd like to be able to download completed student work as a PDF. My students do AMAZING work and I would like to be able to print it to share with parents, or hang in my classroom for displays. I currently have to take single screenshots of student work. It would be helpful if there were a way to download the work as a PDF for easy printing.

Thanks for the feedback. We are exploring providing a more detailed lesson report that includes an export of all student work from activities.
In the meantime, an alternative to taking a screenshot is to open the student work and print the page or save the printed page as a PDF.

Allow Basic Default Settings in Whiteboard to be Adjusted and Customized Permanently
I'm a teacher in the School District of Philadelphia and I had a Smart Board installed in my classroom this year. I really want to use Lumio more but there are several features that I believe can be adjusted to make the lives of teachers a little easier. One of those features is to allow teachers' customized preferences to be set to default instead of constantly having to change them to suit our needs. For example, I highly dislike the thinnest pen setting, and I prefer the medium or larger tipped pen. But every time I open a new file…

Allow educators to have more than one Lumio lesson open at a time
Allow educators to have more than one Lumio lesson open at a time, so that we could be teaching with one Lumio lesson in one tab and editing the same lesson or a different lesson at the same time in another tab. Being able to edit or use more than one Lumio lesson at a time would be a gamechanger for virtual teachers!

YouTube Viewing Options for Teacher-Paced Lessons
Currently when presenting a teacher-paced lesson, students are able to start an embedded YouTube video instantly on their devices. There is no way for the teacher to control when students are able to start the video which often causes a lot of disruption within the class. Sometimes teachers want to play a YouTube video for the whole class to view together. It would be extremely helpful if teachers could play a YouTube video where students see the video in sync on their devices - OR - where the teacher could at least be able to click the option for students…

New in a Library to be hidden
When in an Org Library, we want to be able to add the New in a Library section so that it starts with the Folders. In a big organization, those new files are not that important to most but what is in the folders for their content will be.

Add calming music to the timer as an option
I would like a feature where either there is a predetermined set of a few options of calming music to play while the timer runs OR a way to link music from YouTube, etc. to run while the timer runs :)

Instructional Audio within Lumio Games
EX: saying a word on a flip out card, or a specific card for sorting/matching. This would be super beneficial for lower level learners, or students learning English

Edit/make lessons with coworkers (like in Google Drive) - not just share it
Can you in Spark edit lessons with co-workers like in Google Drive? I know you can share the lesson and then edit, but the changes will only be in your library.

I'd like to embed a video in the corner of a slide I have already created. This way I don't have to leave my content slide to play a video. Currently, you can only embed videos as their own slide.

Allow teachers to import smart notebook lessons that are larger than 200 MB - 500 MB would be great!!!
There are so many lessons that can't be uploaded because they are larger than the 200 MB maximum. I've heard many teachers say they wouldn't have paid for Lumio if they'd known. My Notebook lessons are quite large because they include many images and video links. It would be beneficial if SmartTech increased the MB quite a bit.

Divided Shape Notebook Import to Lumio
I would love it if the Divided Shapes created in Notebook worked when imported into Lumio. Also, I would love it if you could change the font, size, and color of the fractions if you choose to show fractions.

Option to set default groups
In addition to randomized grouping for group workspace activities, allow teachers the option to create default teams ahead of time. This way students can automatically be placed in a group with others at their table; teachers don't have to take extra time to do this from the random created groups.

Six ideas
I'm a moderate to severe special education teacher. All of my students are non-verbal and do not read. I use a large number of images that are moved or selected so that they can demonstrate understanding. Often we do an activity where they do work on an iPad while I model on the board. Some simple features that I would really like would be:
- Drag and drop images onto a page.
- Lock the size and rotation of objects but allow them to be moved around the page.
- Allow the teacher to demonstrate on a worksheet while students work on the…

Option to create school level libraries or sub-organizational libraries
Option to create school level libraries or sub-organizational libraries and use Google groups for permissions to view and manage the library. We would like our teachers to see a District Library as well as a School Library that is only for their staff. I would like to be able to assign an admin at that school to manage permissions. Using Google Groups, the staff for the school would sync with Google.

mix and match
words are being split apart, it's really hard to read, and can't read the the full text description. There should be an option to change the box size and text size of text.

Have Students See What Teacher Writes on Teacher Handout
I would love for students to be able to see as I model working out examples on the teacher handout. Also, after modeling on the teacher handout, I would like to be able to click/toggle something that allows students to be able to then write on their handouts, but can still see the teacher handout with notes as they continue working on their handout individually.

Thanks for the feedback. We will consider this as future improvements for the Handout dashboard. In the meantime, you can have the handout as a normal page before the Handout activity. This way, when you model the activity on the normal page, it will be visible to all students.
