Kami makes it possible to deliver PDF assignments that students can interact with easily. I am able to leave feedback for them in audio, video, or text formats. I also use it to record a copy of the lesson with teacher notes for students who could not finish or missed class. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have not found a single con to this product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I found Kami easy to use and with a couple of great tools for annotating students work. Initially it seemed like a great add on to mark all manner of online exam papers for KS4 and KS5 (the doc conversion was especially useful as my computer wouldn't normally open, say, .key files) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

After spending literally 40+ hours painstakingly writing feedback onto each exam file and returning them to my students, I had nothing but complaints.

Students were receiving the incorrect papers but with the correct annotations, and vice versa. Exporting seemed to absolute destroy all the work I'd done.

I triple checked that it wasn't something I'd done, but Kami was not exporting or saving the right files with the right annotations. Wasted my time. Would've been better off printing each paper, writing by hand, and scanning back in - Absolutely furious. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Kami works almost seamlessly with our Google suite for my school district. Students can easily open a PDF in Cami, annotate it, and submit it for a grade. My students have very few difficulties using this program, and it is consistently used with minimal glitches. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish there were more colors available for more customization options when working. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It allows you to annotate a PDF and that it runs smoothly with Google Docs Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes just have a lot of clicks to get where you want to go. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'm fairly new to Kami, but I already love it! I recently count back my printing of classroom materials to save paper and money. So I've been given my classes digital files. However, for a while, I've been needing to find a free software for my students so that they could annotate pdf documents in an easy way. I like Kami's interface. It's straightforward, and once it's added onto the computer through Google Chrome, opening assignments in Kami is a breeze. Now, when the school year starts--whether in person or digital--I can walk students through the process of annotating a text by using Kami in conjunction with a screen recording software. Then, they'll be able to mark up texts on their own and even submit their annotated texts to me as assignments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As of now, I don't have much that I dislike because I'm still new to it. However, it's a bummer that the audio/video/screen recording features are available only on the paid version. My school district doesn't have enough money to purchase that. Also, I will admit that Kami takes some time to experiment with, or get used to. There are a good bit of buttons to mess around with.

I like the idea that you can send out a document/PDF to students to work on rather than printing it. This works really well for distance learning. When I used it during the first part of quarantine, I used it as a way to "draw" on student work to make visual corrections like I would in the classroom. It was relatively easy to do that using the tools Kami offers. I also like that there is a "recently opened" list on the homepage of Kami. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I do not like that I cannot advance through student work sequentially like I can on Google Classroom. Rather, I need to go back to Classroom, go to the student document and then open that specific document in Kami. To go to the next student I have to go back to Classroom and export it to Kami again. This makes for extra tabs in my browser and takes extra time. When it's one class it's alright, but if you have 100+ students it is not. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Kami is an app that allows users to write or draw on a document. My school uses Kami to allow students to write or draw on digital assignments through Google Classroom. Students can easily open documents with Kami and then annotate using their stylus. Kami allows students to type using a text box, draw free hand, or write with the stylus using a draw - to - text feature. Kami also allows students to adjust their "stroke thickness" and to change the pen color. You can also insert shapes, images, and math symbols.

There are two things I like most about Kami:

First, Kami seamlessly integrates with Google Classroom. As a teacher, I can easily create Kami assignments with documents such as PDFs that will post directly to my Google Classroom. Kami gives you the option to automatically create separate duplicate assignments for each student, or multiple students can work and collaborate on one shared document at the same time.

The second thing I like the most is that Kami saves your progress in real time - whether you click the "save" button or not. This is helpful when students forget to click the "turn-in" button, or if they accidentally close the Kami tab. Their work is automatically saved so they don't have to do the work over again.

I wish Kami would have a better "eraser" feature. I often use Kami to write, draw, or represent math strategies when working with groups of students. Once I am finished with one group of students, another group of students enters. It is difficult to quickly erase everything on the page before the new group of students sees. It would be helpful to have a "clear all" or "erase all" button on the eraser to quickly erase everything on the page. Or, it would be helpful to have a feature similar to SMART boards where you draw an imaginary circle and then touch the center of the circle to erase everything within the circle you drew.

Kami is a very good way of annotating assignments and can be very good at times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Most of the time, i'll be doing my work, and the page will say an error occurred, and then my progress has been deleted. This has happened to 10-15 pages worth of work in this past quarter of school. If you don't have to, do not use Kami. It is not reliable and will probably end up wasting your time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The assignments show correctly once assigned to student. The student can answer on the worksheet and it reads the assignment for the students. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Other than the fact that there is no calculator the student can assess , I have not ran into any problems. I have not found any downsides that affect the presentation of the assignment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Kami saves your annotations automatically and allows you to export with annotations or the original document. I love that the premium version also integrates will with Google Classroom. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike that so many features are only available in the premium/paid version like adding images and auto-save to Drive Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
