Lumio Overview

What is Lumio?

Lumio is a web-based instructional platform that offers more ways to effortlessly make learning fun and engaging on student devices. Teachers can start from scratch, or import existing content like PDFs, Google Slides, PowerPoints, and Canva designs and transform them into dynamic, engaging learning experiences on any device. Within Lumio, they can mix and match file types and add interactive elements like games, collaborative whiteboards, handouts, and assessments, all from a single place. Teachers can even share content with colleagues through shared libraries and co-edit lessons in real-time to leverage one another’s classroom experiences. Tools like instructional audio, activity dashboards, and the ability to offer real-time feedback make Lumio a one-stop tool for teachers. It allows them to personalize learning, enable student creation, and gain insight into learning while providing engaging, active lessons. Lumio inspires and supports curriculum with EdTech partners teachers already know and trust, like Desmos, PhET, Epic!, Tynker, and more. All while integrating with common LMS platforms Canvas and Schoology. Not only does Lumio offer more ways to engage students, it’s also specifically designed to improve outcomes – it’s not just fun, it works! Lumio is developed and updated based on an extensive logic model, ensuring that product improvements lead to desired learning outcomes. With the Research-Based Design Certification from Digital Promise, educators and administrators can feel confident in the benefits of using Lumio. With three available plan options (Free, Standard, and Spark), there’s a Lumio plan, and price, that’s right for everyone. Note: Lumio was formerly known as SMART Learning Suite Online (SLSO)

What do you like best about Lumio?

Lumio provides opportunities to integrate ready made content, games, and other interactive elements to presentations in PPT and Google Slides. It is very easy to use and implement. It also offers opportunities to make PDF's not only editable, but individulized for students and professional learners alike. While Lumio is an even more amazing tool when used in conjunction with a SMART Interactive Flat Panel, it is quite powerful even when used on its own. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lumio?

The least helpful part of Lumio is that it is occasionally unreliable. With that being said, the support is always very responsive and quick to work on solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lumio?

I love that Lumio allows you to use so many digital resources in one platform. So many times I have to app smash to get the final product, with Lumio I am able to customize my lessons to meet the needs of all students. I have access to graphic organizers, formative assessments, manipulatives, and videos all in one space. My students love it and the teachers in my school are using it more than any resource we have! Great product and it just continues to get better and better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lumio?

At times the new Editable PPT feature does not work, but I understand it's in Beta so I know it will only get better with time! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Lumio solving and how is that benefiting you?

Lumio allows me to use one product rather than multiple digital resources. I can find what I am looking for in one platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lumio?

Lumio allows teachers to bring all their content together in one place (slides, pdfs, videos and more). Then teachers can share the presentation with students and have everyone interact with the content together. Not only is it amazing for engagement and collaboration, but the Lumio platform offers so many built in graphic organizers, manipulatives, and game based activities to take lessons to the next level. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
