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…

Please add "Lock but Allow Move".
Please enable the ability to move an object but lock it's attributes (similar to the notebook software ability). Our teachers are struggling to use Lumio effectively with our centerbased children without this feature.

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.

whole-class whiteboard
Please add the ability for students to NOT be able to edit other students' responses on whiteboard! Make it a choice to a) all edit (all can mess around), b) only submit but NOT edit (the students can participate in the activity but NOT mess with the other students' responses), c) select a random/specific student to respond (check boxes to select/deselect).

Renaming Pages & Linking to Pages
A couple of the useful functions in Notebook that are missing in Lumio would be the ability to rename pages so that they are easy to identify when presenting or editing a lesson. And the ability to link an object to a page (and not just a URL) in the same activity would be helpful as well.

Disappear Feature
Could we have a disappear/fade feature for shapes and images? It was an option when I was working with SMART notebook. This allowed my lessons to be more interactive. It allowed me to hide content before I was ready to display it for students while teaching through the same slide.

teacher note section
I would love to have a section specifically for the teacher's use, where they can make notes and comments that may be needed during the lesson or activity they are conducting. For example, in Keynote, there is a comment section where you can input comments that are not visible to the audience you are presenting to.

Run Multiple Lumio Files at the same time
When starting multiple Lumio files in different browser tabs, a pop up with "Reloading page - this page will reload to match the latest view in another browser" appears - which didn't happen before. Could we have the option to not reload and have multiple instances of Lumio running simultaneously without matching?

Immersive Reader and MathType
Hi! I would love it if Immersive Reader worked with the MathType text added to a page. For example, if I typed "1/2", it would be great if it read "one half" and the other special functions/characters.

Allow educators to edit a student's login name if they aren't able to change it from the course code
Allow educators to edit student's name during lessons: I am a virtual special education teacher, and often my students sign in but don't know how to change or edit their login name so it ends up staying our course code (which is confusing as I have multiple students who do not know how to change it to their name so it takes a while to figure out who is who) so it would helpful if I could write in their name instead of the course code during a lesson to better identify which students are participating.

Add or allow educators to download copies of student's work/pages during or afer the lesson.
Add or allow educators to download copies of student's work/pages during or afer the lesson, either as a JPG or PDF, instead of the only current option of taking a screenshot of the student work sample mid-lesson. If there was some way to download student work samples during or after lessons this would be so helpful as sometimes student responses are erased by students accidentally or not there when I return to the lesson.

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?

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.

Student display name needed even with Google sign in?
Why is it necessary to have a student display name entered even with Google sign in? Think about this process with a kindergarten class. Just to get to the Google screen and "more about you" with these little students. I have 18 classes I see and in order to use the Lumio student name identification, an large amout of class time will be spent just prepping to use the program. This display name will be saved as typed though the student's academic years? If so, a whole pre lesson in keyboard and qwerty, upper vs. lower case typing is needed…
