Take 5 for Tech

Kami an online PDF, Doc or image annotation & manipulation tool. (Click the link for a quick & painless 2 minute Kami video orientation.) Teachers can make Kami assignments by using a simple assignment from their Google Drive or by altering a premade activity from the Kami library. With Kami, students can:

• Highlight, underline & strikethrough
• Add text (even through voice typing)
• Have things read to them with text-to-speech
• Attach shapes, images & video
• Collaborate virtually

This August, Kami released some very helpful new features:

• Natural Read Aloud Voices
• Text Translation & Language Support

Any staff member within the MYWCCC domain has access to Kami and even if you don't use it in a classroom, it can be a helpful tool.

With Kami you can:

• This year no student phones are allowed; well, no problem! They can use the integrated camera tool & take a picture using their Chromebook and submit it.
• See your students work in real-time, giving live and meaningful feedback & supervising them to stay on task
• Help struggling students
• Have students complete assignments with multimedia answers like images and videos
• Insert math symbols with ease.
• Give students a paper copy of something and have them work on it without you digitizing
  
• Create a dynamic assignment out of a static image using OCR (Optical Character Recognition)
• Create something in Canva and then share directly to students to manipulate, answer or modify
• Markup & Highlight passages for better understanding.
• Host a digital whiteboard that student groups can use to collaborate in person or virtually
• Split, merge or rearrange the order of a multi-page PDF
• Use a digital notebook with students. Give students a static resource, but still allow them to annotate and add content that gives the assignment more meaning
• Sign documents and forms in a flash.

Kami & Canvas Video Note:

I already installed Kami in Canvas for you so I queued the video to start after those directions.

Kami AI Video Note: Kami's AI features are making it even easier and faster to create quality lessons. Watch the video above to see how AI can cut down the time you spend creating & grading assignments.

Do you want to work on and create Kami assignments, but you don't know where to begin? Do you want to figure out how to integrate Kami assignments into your classroom toolbox? Do you wonder what types of activities Kami can help you with in your content area? If you've said yes to any of the above, I'm your gal.
