Be able to change the background colour of text box, independent of changing the text colour.
In most software programs that I use, it's possible to change the background fill of a text box. I teach English as a Second Language. If I want to label vocabulary, it makes it more interesting to look at, plus it can also help me classify certain items of vocabulary. Visuals are extremely important in language teaching. I'm surprised you can't do this already in Smart Notebook 20. You will see in my uploaded file an example of what I'm looking to achieve. In my lesson on Health to low level English language learners, I've used colour to differentiate verb…

SLS Online
This feature hardly ever works! When I click on it, it just keeps loading, but it never loads. Can you please make this feature work effectively? I waste too much time trying to find lessons and make lessons, just to find out that the SLS feature is not working. This tool is very unreliable.

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.

Thanks for your feedback. We have this work captured in our backlog and will look to support asynchronous access for activities such as Response and Shout It Out.

Allow pattern blocks to be rotated when in student handout mode
It appears that once I turn the pattern block manipulatives into a student handout, that students are only able to move the shapes around. I think the ability to rotate shapes is disabled when in student mode. This would be an extremely helpful feature to have when teaching students about composing shapes.

reset entire lesson to original state, instead of each slide.
Instead of having to reset each slide for the next class, allow us to reset the entire lesson. I don't want to make copies of each lesson for various classes.

Move students who completed handout and have been checked into a folder.
As you are checking student work there should be a button that can be pressed on the teacher end to show it is correct and it won't come up again in work I am checking. When looking for the 2 people who needed help it would be nice not to have to flip through 20+ screens first.

Why is there no abacus/rekenrek manipulative feature?
A moveable abacus or rekenrek type of manipulative would be so helpful for teaching number sense! Does it already exist?

floating tool bar
I hade been using smart 11 for quite some time. we upgraded to smart 20 and the floating tool bar is gone. i am struggling not having it and would appreciate consideration being given to bringing it back. if a user does not like it, they can always turn it off. but not having it is killing me.

Voice instruction for games
Just like you can add audio instructions to the pages of the lesson you should be able to add audio directions to a game. If the student can't read and they have no one to read the question for them they are just going to be guessing the answers. Or when playing games like the Monster game the teacher should be able to see the question and be able to read it and everyone move to the next question at the same time.

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.

Thank you for the suggestion. We’re Ideating better ways to track student work and we’ll work on adding ways to quickly review student work as part of it.

Good Morning. I'm told Smart Notebook doesn't support shared network drives.
I'm having a hard time understanding why Smart Notebook doesn't support shared network drives. If Windows 10 makes said drives available to me, so should Smart Notebook. Expecting a teacher to copy Notebook files from a shared drive to the local drive in order to open is frankly ridiculous. Please correct Smart Notebook to allow teachers to open Notebook files from a shared drive like any other application would. Thanks. John IS Team, Grants Pass School District 7, Oregon

Teacher Dashboard Separate From the Delivery Display
The delivery display is the screen that you show to the class in person and stream online. There should be a separate teacher dashboard that I can have open on a separate device through which I can manage the class, view student input for filtering, and control what is being shown to the class as far as class input.

Multiple slides in one!
Nearpod has a great feature that lets you create a small slideshow within the bounds of a single slide (think multiple slides in one). This is an incredibly powerful tool! It allows a student to break down the steps of a concept without the disconnect that occurs when you move on to the next slide. I'd love to see something like that come to SLS! Math teachers would be able to use the slideshow feature to show the steps to solving a problem, or art classes can use it to illustrate layering effects, etc.
