WHY should you try Kami?
Open any learning resource or document in Kami (PDF, image, DOC, PPT, ePub..). In Kami, this now becomes your canvas!
First, embed some instructions for your learner- as either text, a sketch, audio, video, or even screen-capture a worked example - before you share out as an assignment from Google Classroom or other LMS, or simply by sending a copy of the file to each student.
Distribute as an assignment to each student - they can draw, write and comment on their copy, using the wide range of Kami tools.
Then give live feedback or encouragement to your students right there in their document, stay connected, and keep them engaged. Finally, they can send it back to you to grade! Grade their work and they will immediately see their grades and feedback.
Or collaborate in group activities on a shared copy of a learning resource document – keep your students engaged with their classmates.
Or try Kami if you want to whiteboard remotely using any existing document as your canvas. Share it in Kami with learners, who can view in real time, collaborate, and ask questions. Combine with a Zoom or GoogleMeet call for the full live experience
