LessonUp Reviews & Product Details

The best thing about LessonUp is that it combines lesson delivery and live student interaction in one place. I can use quick activities such as word clouds, hinge questions, polls, short answers, and exit tickets to see what students understand in real time. Since, i teach in HE, It is simple for students to join on their phones, and anonymous participation helps create a more inclusive environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

At times, when building a large number of lessons, there is still a learning curve in deciding which interaction type works best for each teaching purpose. I would also always welcome even more options for exporting, analytics, or organising larger lesson libraries. That said, the platform is already very strong for day-to-day teaching.

LessonUp is a fantastic tool that we use across all KS3 computing lessons, and it has made a significant difference in how interactive and engaging our lessons are for students. The platform allows us to easily integrate quizzes, “fill the gap” activities, drag-and-drop exercises, and discussions into our lessons, which helps keep students actively involved and improves their participation throughout the class.

One of the standout aspects of LessonUp is how simple and intuitive it is to use, both for teachers when creating lessons and for students when participating in them. Additionally, cover staff have found it very easy to use when stepping in and covering lessons, as it allows us to quickly adapt lessons to the needs of the class.

The shared library of lessons can be difficult to search and filter. A curated section would be very helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that LessonUp combines so many different forms of engagement and gamification in one tool, which means I don't need to jump between different EdTech tools. The tool allows for whole-class participation, low-stakes testing, and data tracking, which are incredibly useful for teaching, learning, and assessment. Managing the LessonUp accounts at our college has been smooth, and the setup was pretty easy. The teachers using it love the tool, and I find its uniqueness in the EdTech landscape valuable.

It takes time to get used to the interface and how it differs from PPT, but this isn't a problem and once you become familiar with the tool it's easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It allows all students to contribute during the feedback so I can check everyone's understanding of the topic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You can't write or make notes on the slide when it is on teach mode. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like LessonUp for its interactive features, which really add to the experience. The AI help is also a great benefit when designing lessons, as it assists in writing content or creating images to use. Plus, the initial setup was very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As a teacher at ROC Nijmegen, I am incredibly enthusiastic about LessonUp! This application has given my teaching method a boost. The user-friendliness of LessonUp is amazing. Creating lessons is a breeze thanks to the intuitive interface and the many built-in tools. Whether you want to add videos, quizzes, or interactive assignments, everything is within reach and easy to use.

What really makes LessonUp special is how it encourages interactivity in the lessons. The various tools are easy to use. My students are much more engaged and active during the lessons.

Additionally, LessonUp provides access to a huge database of lessons created by other users, including colleagues within ROC Nijmegen. This is a great source of inspiration! I have already used and adapted lessons from others several times for my own classes, and I notice that my colleagues do the same.

In short, LessonUp is a great tool for any teacher looking for ways to make their lessons more interactive and engaging. I can wholeheartedly recommend it to everyone! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's a shame that you need to have a school account to use the collaborative environment within your educational institution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The help we received from Iris was first class; she really supported us in creating our channel and lessons, was always receptive to questions, and was lovely to work with. It's a really interactive platform that allows learners to engage deeply with the subjects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So many functions - which is excellent, but it's hard to remember how each one works. It takes time and practice to create and use the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I was originally a Nearpod user, but I didn't like that students couldn't get instant feedback unless I was doing a live lesson. I don't like live mode where all the kids work at the same pace because some kids need extra time. I needed something that could be self paced and give instant feedback. I did a search for websites that were similar to Nearpod. I somehow found LessonUP. I did a trial and fell in love. Not only does it allow the students to work at their own pace but each slide gives them instant feedback. There are also so many options for each slide. Some options that I love are multiple choice, sequencing, mind mapping, imbedded videos, and more. I love to use mind mapping to create charts with their responses. I can pose a question and let them respond. Then I can choose all their best answers and put them on my chart. I can fill it out while they are working on the entire lesson. There is so much flexibility with LessonUp. If you want to use slides from previous lessons you can copy and paste them into other lessons.

During distance learning, I used it to teach all of my lessons. I could record my voice on each slide. You can see how much time students spend on each slide. You will know if they skip certain slides. Before and after distance learning, I used it to enhance my lessons. I can't imagine teaching without it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So far there is nothing I dislike :) I love all of the features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

LessonUp is a userfriendly platform to provide creative, innovative lessons for those who are not so tech savvy, as well as those of us who are comfortable with many different forms of technology. Students love it and it is easy for them to access all forms of the lessons; teachers love it for its ease and multi-faceted layout. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There isn't much I have come across in regard to disliking LessonUp, other than uploading videos. Our school limits access to platforms such as YouTube, and when I try to upload a video I have to use security passwords to bypass the limited access. Another issue that I have come across, one that LessonUp may not be able to change, is the way it appears on different devices. I tell my students not to use phones to retrieve information, but some of them do this anyway and it is hard to follow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The exceptional felxiblity. The provided tool kit allows me to employ a vast array of lesson designs -- and choose from how best to share them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Video integration requires Youtube or Vimeo. This presents school firewall issues and inhibits the speed with which a teacher can provide original video content. Direct upload as offered with ClassDojo or Showbie. for example, would allow for faster teacher preparation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
