SAM Studio is set to release its major update, version 3.0.0, on Friday, May 12, 2023, bringing significant improvements to access and classroom management within the platform. With the integration of Clever SSO and Clever Secure Sync, over 40% of customer districts and schools can now enjoy easier sign-in and automatic rostering. The update also streamlines the rostering process for teachers not using Clever, allowing them to upload all students within a class section using a single .csv file. This massive architectural shift is designed to enhance the user experience and decrease response time, based on feedback from CSAT, training, and educator interviews.

“We continue to improve SAM Studio based on the feedback and input of educators. This latest update is another step in SAM Labs’ continuing pursuit of helping educators throughout the United States and the rest of the world provide critical computational thinking skills.” – Product Owner, Emily Deffenbaugh
