Using Delivery mode

When you start a new Lumio lesson, a new class session is created and opens in Delivery mode. Delivery mode is Lumio’s lesson presentation view. In Delivery mode, you can manage connected students, control lesson pacing, navigate pages, write and draw on pages, and lots more.

Note 

You can start a Lumio lesson without connected devices by closing the Class settings dialog.

Each student controls their own audio playback and can listen at their own pace. As the teacher, you see the same controls when you browse to a page with audio, but your playback is independent of your students’ and will not affect their experience.
