Reset of Lesson
The ability to reset a lesson and clear previous student work instead of making another copy of the original lesson.
4 votescompleted ·AdminSMART Technologies Product Management (Product Manager, SMART Technologies) responded
Good news. You no longer need to reset pages or lessons manually. Lumio now creates a clean session every time you start new from a file in your My Library. Sessions with student work are stored in the new Class Sessions tab, allowing you to review the work later if needed.

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!

Good news. You can now open different Lumio resources in multiple tabs without having one affect the other.

Pop out window for audio recorder for students--don't block the whole window
Allow students to view the lumio while recording. Right now the the recording window blocks the window and can't move it and see what is behind it.

Thanks for your feedback, Angelica. We have added the ability to minimize the audio recorder. Students can do this by clicking on the minimize icon (a horizontal line) to collapse the recording window to a toolbar.

Offer high school background themes
When creating the matching game or sorting, I would like to see a more mature background theme for high school. The themes seem elementary in characters.

We have added several generic themes for the activities. Please take a look. If there are other ideas for engaging themes for high school students, please let us know.

Restrict the pinch to zoom in function so that students with fine motor challenges are able to complete activities without altering it.
I would like to restrict the "pinch to zoom-in" function so that students with fine motor challenges do not accidentally zoom-in during a lesson when they are using more than 1 finger to move objects on their screens.

This feature has been added as part of our advanced locking options. On selected item's context menu select "Allow Move" to make things movable but lock the size and orientation.

Can we add additional parameters to an object (e.g., infinite clone and only allow vertical movement)?
My students with their gross and fine motor abilities could benefit with some restrictions when manipulating objects so they stay in alignment.
1 votecompleted ·AdminSMART Technologies Product Management (Product Manager, SMART Technologies) responded
Good news. You now have more options to lock objects to constrain the movement. For example, you can lock an object to only allow vertical movement.

Recently Deleted Files
Have a space for recently deleted files to be held or recovered. If I delete a file accidentally, having a space that holds these files for 7-30 days. Allowing easier recovery.

My Library now features a "Trash" folder that will hold on to deleted files for up to 30 days.
(Note: this is currently only for My Library. Organization and Shared Libraries will get a similar feature in the future.)

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.53 votescompleted ·AdminSMART Technologies Product Management (Product Manager, SMART Technologies) responded
When students are signed in their directory name now appears in parenthesis next to their display name in the class panel if they have set a different display name. You can also disable guest student access from class settings to force students to sign in.

Audio
I love that I can add audio instructions to the page but it would be more helpful if I could add audio to multiple places on the page or to the games along with the images or words. This could be so that the student can hear the proper pronunciation of a vocabulary word.

Try out our attach audio feature! It will allow you to record or upload audio and attach it to any annotation on a page. From an annotation's context menu pick "Attach audio" or look for the microphone in the toolbox to add an audio annotation.

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?

Lock feature "allow vertical or horizontal move" as you can in Notebook
Being able to change the lock features would allow for interactive options for students to move items and slide things in a uniform manner. This is currently available in Notebook and it would be great to add it into Lumio.

Translation Widget
We would love a simple translation widget. We have a non-english speaking preschooler and it would be nice to quickly type in a word or small set of instructions and it audibly translate for him. We currently do this on our phones for him, but it would be nice to keep our phones out of the lessons!

Lumio works with Immersive Reader to provide translation support for text in lessons. Students can turn on Immersive Reader mode and select any text to be translated and read out by Immersive Reader.

response questions student-paced
I would like to be able to have students complete response questions in student-paced mode. Right now this can only be done in teacher-paced mode.
10 votescompleted ·AdminSMART Technologies Product Management (Product Manager, SMART Technologies) responded
I'm pleased to announce that this has gone live in Lumio today.
You will notice a new setting on Response quizzes that will let you toggle between "Independent work" and "Live in-class." Independent work is the default.
When a Response quiz is configured as Independent work, they can be started by students in asynchronous assignments, or during live delivery when you're running in student-paced mode.
When "Live in-class" is configured, the quiz must be started by the teacher in live delivery, the way it used to work. Use this for a proctored quiz experience.

Can you create a set of templates for Hispanic Heritage month? Maybe have pages with background graphics of flags/maps of different Spanish speaking countries. You could also choose some images of historic or tourist landmarks.
