Notebook Integration
I'm struggling to understand why Lumio has so many enrichment and interactive activities, yet doesn't have the same basic tools as Notebook. I've spent years creating my slides in Notebook, most with special fonts/ animations/ tools not offered in Lumio.
Why spend time perfecting my lessons in Notebook, only to have to re-edit everything once I upload to Lumio before sharing with students?
Why start fresh in Lumio when I have less than half the options & tools I normally use in my lessons?Notebook & Lumio might as well be two separate companies because they have basically nothing in…

Thank you for your feedback! We love Notebook too; we've added functionality to it over the last 20 years and there's a lot in there.
We plan on continuing to add support for the best of Notebook features in Lumio and making your Notebook files work better when imported to Lumio. For example, we recently added support for shapes and lines and the MathType equation editor.
We would appreciate your input to help us prioritize the features that are the most important to you. Let us know your favorite specific features by voting on ideas. If you don't see your feature suggested already, create a new idea.
Thank you again, your suggestions will help shape the development of Lumio.

Interactive spinners, dice, cards, timers
ESPECIALLY in today's remote/hybrid world -- SMART has many opportunities for collaboration. I enjoy my students playing games together through SMART, but needing to access a separate website for spinners, cards, and dice is really challenging for young learners. Please help! :)

Inserting guided questions throughout videos
Teachers need to be able to insert guided questions at stopping points throughout ready-made videos or those they have created on their own. EdPuzzle and Nearpod both allow this and it's a game-changer for blended learning. Also, check out the Modern Classrooms Project.org to see how these videos allow teachers to assist other students while the majority are using self-paced videos. If I were to ever go back into the classroom, I would teach that way!

I want all of the things from Smart notebook to be available in Lumio
Our district upgraded our smartboards to the 6000 series this summer. I am changing my notebook files to lumio so I can use them on the board.
In lumio, I am finding it difficult to use the tools I had on smart notebook files, Like a line tool. I dont know why they would take most of those things out but I used them very frequently and now I dont know how to get to any of it. Please just make a smart notebook toolbar in lumio.

See all student responses on one screen
When making an activity for individual response, it would be helpful to have the option to view all students responses on one screen. Currently, we can see individual student responses by selecting a student name, but when monitoring student work, it would be helpful to view all in addition to the ability to view individually. I've attached an image from whiteboard.fi to show a visual.

Individual Student Handout Navigation
When going through individual student handouts it would be nice if I could open an individual handout for a single student and navigate down through the lesson and directly to each subsequent handout for that particular student until I had them all graded.

Remove limit on number of object that can be selected
Why is there a limit on the number of objects that can be selected while editing? This really limits my ability to create Lumio lessons. I was making a music worksheet and found that there was a limit of 50 objects that could be selected with Command - A.

Thanks for your feedback. We put in a limit of 50 for performance considerations. We'll look to increase this limit to a more reasonable number to support your use cases.
Also, if you are multi-selecting many objects, you can shift click and drag to marquee select them quickly.

Asynchronous Student Access to Response and other activities
Please enable the option for students to access and complete SLSO Response formative assessments via a shared link. Teachers would like to administer a formative assessment to their students asynchronously, rather than during a live lesson. Perhaps the teacher could "end" access to the assessment by choosing to "stop sharing" the link.

Audio for students, too
Now that it is finally possible for the teacher to add audio, I hope that this will also be an opportunity for the students. Had been a HUGE help for the students who struggle to express themselves in writing and we will have everything in one place

Thank you for the suggestion, Veronika. We'll consider this for future improvement of Shout It Out. As a current alternative, you can also use a whole-class Workspace activity to facilitate class discussions. Workspace activities give you more flexibility in how you can configure and run them in class.

Drag and drop images
Right now we have to search our computers for the images we need, but being able to drag and drop an image directly into a slide is a basic feature that would be really helpful. Can we get this?

Thanks for your feedback. We have added keyboard shortcuts to copy and paste images from any web page or application. We will consider adding drag and drop as an additional method to add images as well.

Rename files on your Lumio dashboard
I want to be able to change the name of the file right on my dashboard. I do not want to have open a file. Many times there are files that were created when I used the Whiteboard and they are named with the date etc. That is frustrating.

Attach audio clips to objects on pages
SMART needs to add audio capabilities similar to those found in Notebook. I can't use SMART Learning Suite Online with my youngest students because they are pre-literate. Learning Suite Online needs to allow audio aspects of uploaded Notebook files to function as designed. Really frustrated right now.
