Assigning Lumio lessons in Google Classroom

When you share a lesson, it behaves differently depending on whether the recipients are signed into Lumio as teachers or students:

  • Teachers receive a fresh copy of the lesson with no student work included.

  • Students receive a current copy of the lesson, so if they worked on the lesson in class, their work is included.

The procedure below explains how to assign Lumio files to students in Google Classroom. To share a copy of your file with another teacher, see Sharing lessons with other teachers.

To assign a lesson in Google Classroom

  1. Sign in to Google Classroom, select the class where you’d like to share the lesson, and then select Classwork.

    A list of the classwork you’ve posted appears.

    Note 

    If you’re using an iPad, be sure to sign in to Google Classroom through your web browser rather than using the Google Classroom app. (When you use the app, you’re unable to access Lumio files.)

  2. Click Create and select Assignment.

    An assignment template appears.

  3. Enter a title and fill in any other information that you’d like to include, such as instructions or a due date.

  4. Click Add and select Google Drive.

    The Insert files using Google Drive dialog opens.

  5. Find the lesson you want to share, select it, and click Add.

    The lesson appears as an attachment at the bottom of the assignment.

  6. Click Assign.

    The assignment appears in your Classwork list and in each student’s view of Google Classroom.

    Students can click the attachment and sign into Lumio to open the lesson you’ve assigned.

    Note 

    If your students are using an iPad, they need to sign in to Google Classroom through a web browser rather than using the Google Classroom app. (When you use the app, you’re unable to access Lumio files.)
