How To Create a Kami Assignment in Google Classrooom

 


For years, I have championed DocHub as a free tool for marking PDFs in Google Drive and Google Classroom. Kami was been around for a while now and is an alternative to DocHub and is generally liked by most people who use it. Both perform a similar role as well as integrate with Google Classroom. Though a Doc Hub fan, I would encourage people to use Kami if that is what they prefer. If interested in taking a look at Kami, take a look at the steps below for creating a Kami assignment within Google Classroom. Click here to add the Kami Chrome extension to your browser.

Step 1: In the Google Classroom Create button, select Kami assignment. If you don't see this as option, notify whoever is in charge of your GSuite domain and ask them to push the Kami app to teacher and student accounts.


Step 2: Wait for the Kami assignment window to pop up.



Step 3: Select the Classroom into which you want this Assignment to be assigned.


Step 4: Select which students within that Google Classroom you want to be able to access the Assignment.


Step 5: Decide whether or not you want this Assignment to be published immediately or save as a draft to be edited and or published later.


Step 6: Add your title and instructions. Then click the Google Drive button at the bottom left to add a PDF file from Drive. You have the option of clicking the "paperclip" to attach a PDF saved on your computer.


Step 7: Search Drive (or your computer's files) for the PDF file. you want to attach and have students mark using Kami.


Step 8: Before clicking Assign, determine whether or not you want to check the box that says "Send Kami instructions to students". This will attach an extra document to the assignment that students can read to learn how to mark the text with Kami and turn in to Google Classroom. This is optional for you, the teacher.


Step 9: Click Open in Classroom to view the Kami assignment in Google Classroom.


Step 10: Review your Kami assignment and make sure you've set it up the way you want. If you want to edit, click the three dots in the top right corner of the assignment and select Edit. 


The video below shows you step by step how to set up everything shown in this blog post.
