SMART Webinar Series: Leveraging Student Devices and Capturing Teachable Moments

Hello, everyone. My name is Jennifer Underwood, and I am a customer success manager from Florida. Today's webinar leveraging student devices and sharing, teachable moments, features ASHA Evans, customer success manager from Florida as well. We encourage participation. I'll be supporting you in the chat if you have any questions or ideas you'd like to share. At the end of today's webinar, additional resources will also be shared in the chat. Also, for participating today, a certificate will be provided after you complete a brief feedback survey. At this point, I'm gonna turn things over to Asha so that we can get started with today's webinar, leveraging student devices, and capturing teachable moments. Alright. Well, thank you for that introduction, Jennifer, and thank you all for joining us this afternoon. This session that we're doing today is act actually steps four and five of the five getting started steps in LumiO. And in our previous weeks, we focused on step one, which was getting started. Importing resources that you already have. We also did a a session on enhancing your lesson with game based activities. And last week, we did, a session on adding collaborative and independent interactivity. So We're wrapping up, this month's series with this session on delivering and sharing your lesson in Lumiya. And what we'll be showing you all today is some of the features and interactivity that you can add even while delivering your lesson. So it doesn't all have to be made beforehand, because some things do just pop up during the lesson, right, in the midst of delivery, in the midst of teaching, there may be, some brainstorming you want to capture or some student ideas. And in LumiO, you can capture those moments while presenting your lesson, and we'll show you those features today. So, to get started with that, I'm going to invite you all to sign in to your LumiEL account. And I'm actually going to exit my presentation here by clicking the three lines in the top left corner. To get signed in to Lumi. I see Jennifer has added, the web link there in the chat. Thank you, Jennifer. If you click on that link, it will take you to a, login page for Limeo. And you can choose the option that allows you to sign in as a teacher. And I'm also going to pull it up on my screen. Just in case you're still watching what I'm doing. I'm gonna give you a visual here. Alright. So clicking on that link that Jennifer provided will take you to the page that I'm sharing on my screen. You'll see the teacher sign an option. And then, you will be able to sign in with either Google or Microsoft. Once you are signed in, you will be taken to your Lumi homepage. If it's your first time, then you will have to respond to a few prompts, but only when it's your first time. Every other time after that, it'll just take you directly to the home page, which is what you can see on my screen. Alright. Really quickly gonna give an overview of, a few important icons and sections here on the home page, and then we're gonna dive right in to our lesson. First section I want to point out is in the top right corner. You'll notice a graduation cap. You can click on that cap. To access LumiO resources. And you'll also notice this cap all around LumiO. And, when you see it, you click on it, and it will show you how to use the particular tool or feature that you saw it on. So for example, if maybe you come in here to create a game based activity, but you're not familiar with the game based activities. You can click on the graduation cap that you see. And it will provide you with an overview of those gains. So it comes in pretty handy. Right underneath that graduation cap, you'll see your class ID. That is the number that you share with your students. If you ever want them to connect to your lesson live during class, Google. And then to the right of that, you have your edit class button. Which gives you a few options for, making changes to your class settings. One important feature here is manage immersive reader. This will allow you to, turn immersive reader on. For your students if you want them to be able to have text read to them during your live lessons. Alright. So, those were all of the once I wanted to highlight on the right side of the page. Over on the left side, you'll notice your new and import buttons Those are what you would select if you wanted to create a lesson. What I'm going to do today is actually pull a lesson from the Lumio Library, which is, repository where you can find content that's already been created. And I'm going to, present that lesson and then show you all the features that you can add. While in delivery mode. To access your lumio library, you just go to the top center of your lumio homepage. You'll notice there's a tab that says my library, which is what I'm currently in. I can see all of the personal files that are saved to my account. Mhmm. To the right of that, you have the Lumina Library. And all you have to do is click on it. And it brings you to this page where you can browse through the different collections and categories look for lessons by topic or subject using the search bar up at the top. And any of the content that you find here is available for you to save directly to your library. So, I just so happen to land in this multiplication category. So I'm gonna go ahead and check out, the lessons we have here. Scrolling through. Game time single digit multiplication. That sounds interesting. So I click on it, And when you click on a file that you're interested in, you'll be able to preview that file so that you can see all that's included, and start to picture yourself, possibly using this with your students. I like what I see. So I'm gonna go ahead and save this to my library. Once it is saved, that file belongs to you. So at that point, if you wanted to make any changes, personalize it in any way, add your little customizations and images, you would be able to do that with your saved copy of the lesson. You also could just present the lesson as is. So you'll notice that, here in the bottom right corner of my screen, now that the file has been saved, it's giving you the option to edit. I want it to go in and customize or I can start, which will allow me to present my lesson the way it is. I'm going to go ahead and press start, because I wanted to show you all some of the features that you can add while delivering. And pressing start brings me to, presentation mode. And from here, I could have students connect to my lesson and begin instruction. So, just to recap what we've done so far, I'm gonna end this After signing in to LumiO, we access the LumiO library by selecting the tab in the top center. We scrolled through and found a resource that we were interested in And then we saved that resource to our library. Now that I have the lesson that I want to use. I'm going to deliver that lesson so that you all can see the features that can be added while teaching your students. Since I already saved the lesson that I want to use, I'm just gonna go back to my library, and I can see the lesson right here in the front. That's how it'll work for you also. So if if you're in the LumiA Library and, you know, maybe you're saving a bunch of lessons at a time, and you're not ready to present them at that moment, to access them later on, just go back to your library and you would be able to retrieve them. From, your saved files. Alright. Let's get this started. So since I am presenting a lesson, we're now going to shift perspective, I guess. So instead of you being, a teacher looking for content to save, I now wanna give you the opportunity to, get connected to my lesson as a student so that you can experience what it would be like for your learners if you were to present your lesson in Lumio and add interactivity on the fly. So in the chat, excuse me. In the chat, Jennifer has provided the link for you to join my class. Joining my class will allow you to connect to the lesson that I'm presenting as well as, interact with the activities that are in the file. And I showed you all the class ID that can be found on your Lumi homepage. But if you needed to access that ID, while you were presenting your lesson, you could just go over to the toolbar that you have on the left side of the screen. And the second icon from the top, which look like two students right next to each other, it will show you your class ID up top. And then there's a little arrow you can select to create a pop out. And That pop out will show your students the different options they have for getting connected. If they're on, you know, a cell phone or maybe a tablet, they could scan the QR code and get connected. They could also just go to the hellosmart dot com website and enter your class ID, or you could get your join link and share it with them in your, Google classroom or whatever LMS you may use. Or in a chat, like Jennifer did, with my class link. So several options there to get them connected and, engaged in the lesson. Alrighty. Let's get this show on the road. So, this file that I saved from the Lumenio Library wearing is all about single digit multiplication. If I click the, stack in the bottom left corner of my teacher screen. That will allow me to view the slides in the file and I can also select which slide I want to go to. I'm gonna jump to slide three. And, this slide says fact fluency. Set a timer for two minutes, solve as many multiplication facts as you can before your timer goes off. So it looks like these are instructions. Right? And then if I go to the next page, it has the activity for the students to complete. This activity is a match them up. And with the match them up, students would be able to match the equation to the product and the matches that they pair correctly will, appear on the screen as they just did for me. Now if I'm thinking about using this, in the classroom. Right? Students would have the opportunity to, interact with this game here. And I would be able to, view student progress, view their their data to see which of the equations they mastered, which are the ones they they need some support with. And then it would be really cool to capture in the moment, get instant student feedback, and allow them to share with me maybe a multiplication equation that they've come up with. Right? Because I've provided them with these problems here I now want them to come up with a few and, solve those on their own. So if I wanted to insert that into the lesson while presenting. I have the ability to do so by going over to the toolbar. On the left side of my screen, and selecting the plus sign. So right above my up and down arrow, I see a plus sign layer, and that plus sign shows you all of the, pages that you can add to your lesson while presenting. So, starting from the top, if I just wanted a a blank page, like, I needed to add a blank page to my lesson, maybe, take additional notes, create an anchor chart on the fly for my learners. I could add that there. With the whiteboard option. Right underneath that, you have the whole class whiteboard. Which will allow students to, collaborate in one shared space. And I think for the activity that I proposed, that would be pretty neat to do because in this case, all of the equations that students come up with would appear in that one space and they would be visible, by every student in the class. So if I wanted to, I could, you know, have students solve each other's problem. Right. Underneath that, you have your shouted out activity, which is great for, brainstorming. It will allow your students to respond to a a question or prompt that you've provided. And then for my math folks, you are able to add a demo of activity while presenting your lesson, you just select there, and it will insert that page. So I'm going to select full class whiteboard. And now that I've selected that whole class whiteboard option, and it's been added to my lesson. Every student connected to the lesson would have the ability to start writing in this space. And I can see it's already coming in. So for your students, they would have a toolbar on the left side of their screen. There's a pencil icon that would allow them to write highlight. They have an eraser there. They have the ability to add images and web links, even shape. And then the capital a is what they could use to type something in. So as the teacher, Right now, I'm typing in, my equation. But I can see the work that students are adding. I have seven times three that was added by a student. Four times six, ten times three. And now someone else could go in and answer those. Or even me as a teacher, I can go in and answer. But I can draw six times four or four times six equals twenty four. And what I'm doing here in the whiteboard is visible to students in real time just like what they're doing in the whiteboard is visible to me. So I just think it's really, convenient and powerful that you could add something like this on the fly. Right? This isn't something that I had to think about beforehand and plan out when creating my lesson. This was literally spur of the moment, and I could add it and capture these thoughts for my students just by clicking on that plus sign. And then selecting, the tool that I wanna use. Lots of awesome work coming in here. And if I wanted to hold each student accountable and see, you know, who's contributing what. I do have the ability to do that. Just by clicking on what's added. So I wanna make sure I'm on my cursor. Gonna select this equation here. Once you select the item that's been added, you'll get a little drop down arrow in the top right corner. And it will show you who that has, been added by. So I can see that, one time four was added by Jennifer. So although your students are contributing, in the same space, you can still, you know, hold them accountable and and and keep track of what each one of them are doing. So pre attuned there. And that looks like no questions in the chat one last mention about whole class whiteboard, before I move on to the next feature. It does automatically save to the lesson. So if you're not able to go through and maybe assigned students' credit for participating during your lesson, you can always revisit the file later on. And, check out what they did. Alrighty. So Up next, I'm going to show you, how to convert a page to an activity while you are delivering your lesson. So, in LumiO, there are three types of activities that you can convert your pages to. And What that means is, instead of students just being able to view the page and see what changes you may make to it as a teacher. They can actually interact with it for themselves. For example, this page that I'm currently on multiplication fun Students would just be able to, view this page. If connected to my lesson, and they would be able to see the changes that I make to it. Like, oh, multiplication is fun. However, if I wanted students to maybe, write on this page, create multiplication equations again. I would need to convert it to a handout which would give each student their own copy of the page. I could convert it to a workspace. Which would allow them to work in small groups than collaborate, within a small group. Or I could convert it into a whole class whiteboard, which is what we were just working on where students are collaborating in one space. Now you can make those conversions, in editing mode like when you're building your lesson. But if maybe you forget, or, again, in the spur of the moment, you're like, you know what? I want to take this from, a modeling practice for the teacher and give students the opportunity to actually you know, interact and and show what they've learned, you can convert it on the fly. For you to convert a page of your lesson during delivery, what you would do is select the same icon where you can find your class ID. And that is the icon, on the top left. Second option from the top. When you select that icon, you'll see your class ID. But then right underneath that, you'll see lesson facing, your class roster, and then off to the side, you have the option to convert the page. Here, I can see I have, handout workspace and whiteboard as an option. And if you remember when we were doing a quick overview of the Lumio homepage, I mentioned the graduation cap. Look, I have them all here too. So if you didn't know what a handout was or a work space or whiteboard, you could click those graduation caps and, it would show you. For this page, I'm going to, go ahead and make it a handout since we just saw the whiteboard in play on the previous page. And so now I took that slide from being a teacher led activity where I was marking it up and I was modeling to now giving the students the opportunity to engage, with this page from their device. With the handout, you do have access to a teacher copy. So if you wanted to model, maybe show your students how to use the handout, you could do that with that feature. And then once your students start working, their name will appear on this teacher dashboard. So if I wanted to, I could click in and see what Jennifer or Asha have been up to. Well, let's see. And Jennifer is probably like, and what am I supposed to do on this page? Alright. So we've got lots of multi application equations here. Someone knows their math facts. Right? And, just like the whole class whiteboard, the teacher is allowed to contribute and students would see, that feedback or contribution in real time. So, Jennifer, I'm gonna give you a thumbs up. Me. This looks awesome. You're doing a fantastic job with your multiplication facts here. The data in the handout, also saves to the file. So if you're not able to view it during class, you can always revisit it at a later time at a later time. Alright. So, just to recap before we start to close out, while delivering my lesson, I was able to add interactivity on the fly. By selecting the plus sign that I have on the toolbar to the left, that plus sign will show you the different options for pages that you can add to your lesson. Once you, have a page added or, if there is already a page in your lesson, that you decide you want to convert to an activity while presenting. All you have to do is select the, class portal icon where you find your ID, and then choose what kind of activity you want to convert that page to. Once you convert it, students will be able to interact with it from their device. By adding text, images, shapes, and, annotating using the pen tool. Now to close out, this lesson here, I want to go over the share link option. So let's say, you know, I've done this lesson, excuse me, Jennifer has done all this work in class, practicing her multiplication facts. And I want her to be able to, access this lesson and what she worked so hard on, outside of class so that maybe she can review it at home. You can get a share link for your lesson by selecting the three lines in the top left corner. There's an option on the menu that says share, and you can get a teacher copy if you wanted to, you know, give this lesson to a colleague for them to maybe use with their students. You can also get a student copy so that your students can access the lesson outside of class. Okay? Students will need to sign in, and they'll have the ability to sign in when you have them join during class. Having them sign in is going to, allow them to pick up where they left off in a sense. So if maybe they started something in class and didn't get to finish it. As long as they signed in to start it, they'll be able to sign in later. To finish it off and review. This student link is useful for students to, again, access the lesson outside of class. And it will only allow them to, interact with parts of the lesson that the teacher does not have to start. So, for example, the shouted out activity monster quiz, response, and even the group workspace. Those are all activities that have to be started by teacher. So, with a student share link, students wouldn't be able to interact with those because it has to be started by the teacher. But anything, like, any handouts or even whole class whiteboard, any instructional slide that you may have in your file, they would be able to view that and interact with that, with the student share link option. Alright. So feel quiet in the chat. I'm gonna go ahead and end this last thing. By clicking the three lines in the top left corner and selecting end. And going back to the webinar file so that we can close out and share some resources. Share some resources with you all. Alright. So now that we've gone through presenting a lesson and and adding some interactivity on the fly, we encourage you to try this. Maybe you were trying it alongside me or, you know, if you were watching and are looking forward to trying it in the future. That's totally fine. When you receive the recording of today's webinar, you'll be able to you know, press play, press pause, forward, rewind, and go at your own pace as you try to, implement these features. In the chat, Jennifer is, well, looks like you already did it. In the chat, Jennifer has provided you with a link to the, LumiO resources. On this page, you have direct access to the Learn LumiO site. Which is actually the website that you get to when you click on the graduation cap on the Lumi homepage. There's where you can find all kinds of resources to, support your LumiO implementation. Right next to that, you have our YouTube channel where you can learn the ins and outs of Lumio and and access quick how to video. LumiO Ambassador is a great community for you to join. If you were looking to connect with fellow Lumio users from across the globe. It's a really great place to learn how to use Limeo and share tips and tricks. So we encourage you to check that out. And then lastly, you have the link to the webinar registration page, which you're probably already familiar with, since you registered for this webinar, but, you have it there. For you to easily access. If you are on social, we would love for you to connect with us. You can see all of our handles and hashtag down at the bottom here. And then last but not least, We would love to know what you thought of today's session, which was focused on steps four and five. Of getting started with LumiO, all about leveraging student devices and, capturing those teachable moments on the fly. So please complete the survey that Jen provided the link for in the chat. And once you complete it, you will get access to a PD certificate. So, there's something in it for you too.
