As an educator, I'm always looking for new ways to improve my teaching. I started using Kami during the Covid pandemic and have found it particularly useful for second language classes. Kami is a versatile tool and has been helpful in meeting the different learning needs of our students. One of the best things about Kami is that it allows us to easily incorporate audio, video, and visuals into assignments. This has been a game-changer, especially for students who struggle with traditional text-based learning. For example, I can add audio recordings of instructions or explanations for my auditory learners, embed videos that show the language being used in real-life situations, and use visual tools like highlighters and annotations to help visual learners grasp grammar and vocabulary. Plus, Kami is very easy to use! I highly recommend it to any language teacher.
Lise found Kami:
- Slightly saves school money
- Significantly reduces teacher workload“Kami's annotation tools allow for quick and efficient feedback of student work. Teachers are able to provide comments, suggestions, and audio feedback directly on their work, eliminating the need for handwritten corrections. The digital workflow streamlines the grading process and saves valuable time!”
- Significantly increases student collaboration“Students can work on the same Kami document simultaneously, whether they're in the classroom or doing remote work. This can be used to brainstorm ideas, collaborate on projects, and provide peer feedback in real-time.”
- Significantly improves teaching efficiency“I like that Kami allows teachers to add audio or video comments as annotations. This is particularly helpful for language learning, where teachers can assign tasks tp allow students to practice pronunciation, provide explanations, or offer feedback in an engaging way that also saves time and makes things more efficient. It is also an efficient and easy way for teachers to set-up peer review activities!”
- Significantly improves attainment“Allowing students to better understand the content by adding in multimedia supports as well as dictionary and editing tools, students are able to achieve higher results.”
