♻️ Go Green and Grade Green with Kami's Digital Workflow

Ready to save time and the planet? Your secret weapon is Kami, the all-in-one digital document platform.

The simplest way Kami champions sustainability is by transforming your classroom into a paperless environment. Every assignment, worksheet, and feedback sheet is handled digitally, drastically reducing your ecological footprint.

Stop printing, photocopying, and handling stacks of paper. Instead, adopt Kami's end-to-end digital workflow:

  1. Prep Digitally (The Eco-Friendly Upload): Upload any existing PDF, scanned document, or even image file into Kami.

  2. Distribute Seamlessly: Use Kami’s integration with Google Classroom so  each student gets their own editable copy without a single tree being cut.

  3. Annotate and Express (The Tree-Saver): Students use Kami's drawing, text, voice, or video tools to complete the work. They are never forced to use a pencil and paper, allowing them to express their learning in a variety of accessible, digital ways.

  4. Grade Green (The Time-Saver): Use the Class View feature to simultaneously monitor and grade student work directly in the app. Provide rich, personalized, digital feedback using text, video or audio comments.

Go Green!
