A good change is exciting because it means we are moving forward and exemplifies our openness to grow and learn from our experiences, right?
Well, an exciting change is coming your way: SMART Learning Suite Online is getting a brand new name and look!
Where did Lumio come from? That’s a great question.It represents luminescence, the spark of learning, and 'a-ha' moments. Those moments when you see the little or noticeable shift in your student's facial expression. Followed by a sincere appreciation for what you did to help them “get it.” And this is what SMART wanted to capture in this new name.
But this wasn't the only reason. Your feedback also helped immensely when SMART was exploring this change. It was terrible that teachers anfd users had to remember such a mouthful to describe software tool. But teachers are always resourceful, and over time they created new or shortened ways to say the name like SLSO, SMART Suite, or SMART Online.
They want the transition to Lumio to be as smooth as possible. They recognize how much you value the work you do and how precious your time is. So they are sending you a toolkit with everything you’ll need:
The toolkit includes individual cards as well as posters to help your students log in, coloring sheets, and bookmarks!
They also have a teachers toolkit with images and training files.
