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…

Restrict students from changing their names in Lumio.
Allow teachers to restrict students from changing their names when logging into Lumio.
Ex: Students continue to change their names to something inappropriate and then respond with inappropriate messages in Lumio activities. Teachers then have difficulty tracing which student this is tied to so it would be helpful for teachers to restrict students from changing their names.42 votesunder review ·AdminSMART Technologies Product Management

Thank you for making us aware of this issue. We are looking at ways to help teachers better identify signed in students and hold them accountable.

Leaving teacher feedback on Individual Handouts and Group Activities
Right now, if a teacher wants to leave feedback on a student handout, they can write anywhere on the slide. The student can move or delete the feedback, so when the teacher comes back to the slide they don't remember what feedback they left, if the feedback was addressed, or if the student just deleted it without reading it. To keep student work from getting too crowded with feedback and responses, is there a way to leave the feedback off to the side and allow students to indicate that they saw the feedback?

Ability to add a "Stop Wall" where students can't go past that in during a live lesson when it's switched to student paced.
I would love to see some sort of a student-paced accessibility block or wall option that we could add in to lessons. Here's why: I may have a PDF of a story on one page, and questions over it on the next page. I would want students to be able to move back and forth between the story and questions, but not be able to proceed in student-paced mode to see the answers and explanations that come after it! Or, if students are more advanced, they could have an optional enrichment slide to complete after the main activity while others…

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.

embedded browser content in Window
We have special ed students that need to use just one window, if we could embed a browser into a Lumio page, then they would never need to leave the page.

Student Pacing Slides/Screns Limitation Feature
It would be nice to limit the number of screens and slides available in Lumio presentations when in student pacing mode - This would allow for students to work at a free pace through a select number of slides/screens without the teacher having to toggle back and forth between teacher and student pacing mode.

End of Lesson takeaways
I'd like students to have a copy of their notes after completing a lesson. Is there a way, that once I end a session, each individual student's lesson gets downloaded into a PDF or editable Google Doc and saved to their Drive?

More precise ruler rotation.
Ruler Widget is difficult to rotate. The ruler widget is great for straight lines, BUT it doesn't rotate easily to exact angles. My math department used it for drawing angles and is having a tough time getting the widget to be more precise.

Display Student Work
I started a lesson from my iPad. I used share screen from the Smartboard. I couldn't display student work. So, I logged into Lumio from my desktop. This disconnected all of my students from the lesson. That was annoying.
I see 2 options.
1) Let a teacher log into from multiple devices without disconnecting students from the lesson.
2) Create a button to share a student's work to be displayed on student screens.

Unique Lesson Codes Instead of One Class Code
I teach different lessons to different groups of students. I would not want my students to be able to access a class that they're not supposed to be in. It would be great if there was a way to have students connect by entering a unique LESSON CODE for each lesson instead of a universal class code.

Add Full Screen on Lumio
On Smart Notebook you have the option to present your lesson in full screen. When I use Lumio on my Smart Board it only uses about 2/3 of the screen the rest is gray. I would like to utilize the entire Smart Board space.

A method to delete the grey dead space on the side of lessons
For lumio their is no way to present your lesson in a "fit to page scale" or actual full screen. there is a zoom feature that resets every time a new slide is clicked on.
two possible solutions is to make a fit to page option or to at least allow the zoom to stay active when switching slides.

equation editor for students
Now that we have an equation editor for teachers, we need one for students. We need an equation editor tool in the Student tools so that when they are in an Activity (handout, workspace or whole class whiteboard, then can add equations too.

ability to move multiple documents to be open at the same time
As a primary teacher, I have to be as prepared as possible with as little wait time as I can manage for my youngest learners. I would like to be able to have 2 different documents open in different tabs. If I attempt to do this, it will inadvertently update one to look just like the other tab. I do not want that. I want to be able to switch from reading to a math activity. Not having to end one lesson to look for, then open another one.
