Interactive elements
If you like Kami’s collaborative tools, you’ll love Lumio’s many interactive elements that not only provide ways for students to collaborate but also turn your lessons into active learning experiences.
With Lumio, you can choose from 12 customizable game-based activities - fostering fun for every student. Enhance lessons with digital manipulatives and multimedia such as attached audio or embedded videos. Plus, you have options for activity types. Turn any lesson page into a group workspace for collaborative projects, handouts for organized assignments, and whole-class whiteboards for open discussions.
These features create a more immersive classroom environment, ensuring that every learner stays involved and motivated. If you love the collaborative aspects of Kami, you'll be thrilled by what Lumio has to offer.
Flexible delivery options
If you’re a fan of Kami’s asynchronous delivery, you’ll want to check out Lumio's flexible delivery options!
While Kami is great for providing materials for independent learning, it isn’t built for synchronous engagement. Lumio, on the other hand, offers flexible delivery options that cater to all learning styles, making it easy to pivot between formats as needed.
During synchronous delivery, teachers can easily switch between teacher-paced and student-paced modes, allowing students to work on an assignment on their own or in groups. When you want to bring attention back to your lesson, you can switch back to teacher-paced.
Use the assign button in Lumio to provide students with a lesson share link that lets them work on assignments in their own time, on any device, anywhere. Whether you’re looking to enhance real-time interactions or provide choices for your students, Lumio has options.
Content library
While Kami does offer content creation capabilities, Lumio elevates the experience with the ability to import all your existing files and then mix, match and enhance with Lumio’s robust library of thousands of ready-made resources and interactive elements, all for free.
Plus, Lumio’s partnerships with other EdTech tools like PhET, Desmos, Epic, and ClickView (just to name a few!) mean you can seamlessly integrate high-quality resources right into your lessons. This makes lesson planning a breeze!
While Kami has certainly made its mark with its annotation tools, Lumio offers a more comprehensive, flexible, and feature-rich platform for educators. With its diverse interactive elements, flexible delivery options, extensive library of thousands of ready-made resources, and the ability to integrate with other EdTech tools, Lumio truly stands out. Its support for various teaching methods and game-based activities enhances engagement, making it a superior choice for creating dynamic learning experiences. For educators looking to elevate their teaching and provide students with a more interactive and personalized environment, you’ll absolutely love Lumio!
