Updated over 3 weeks ago

Kami's Class View feature allows teachers to:

  • View the whole class' Kami Assignment files at the same time.

  • Monitor students' progress and performance with real-time monitoring.

  • Leave feedback using a range of multimedia tools.

  • Grade multiple students’ work simultaneously.

  • Leave a grade and have it sync automatically to Canvas.


Who can use Class View?

This feature is available to all Canvas teachers as long as they have the Kami Extension installed on their browsers.


How to use Class View

1. Create or choose your Kami assignment

To get started, you'll need to create a Kami Assignment. Follow this article to learn how to create a Kami Assignment in Canvas.

💡 If you've already made a Kami Assignment, follow the steps below.

2. Access Class View in Brightspace

Access the Class View feature in Brightspace by going to the Kami Assignment you wish to grade, then select the assignment you want to view in Class View as seen below:

The Kami Assignment will load. Click the Class View option once the prompt appears.

Checking students' real-time progress

View and give feedback on your students' work in real time before they turn it in. This feature is included in Kami Assignments and when opening the assignments in Class View.

3. Provide feedback in Class View

Each student's work is organized in columns, with pages displayed in rows. At the top of each column are the students' names, assignment status.

For personalized feedback, we recommend using our multimedia Comment tools, which allow you to provide feedback in text, voice, video, or screen capture video.

❗️ Currently the grade function inside classview doesn't work with Brightspace so entering a score there will not link back to the students grades on Brightspace.

Assignment status and what each status means

At the top of each student's submission, the assignment status is displayed next to their name. Here's what each status means:

Sort and Filter features

Sort and Filter appear respectively at the top left of Class View, as seen in the images below:

The Sort option allows you to change the order in which you see the assignments. You have an option for Submission status (Which is covered in the above section), which will be the automatic selection when you open your Class View assignments.

You also have an alphabetical order option by First Name A to Z and Last Name A to Z. To see the most recently submitted assignment, select Last Submitted.

The Filter option limits what shows up on your Class View. All the filters are automatically off, and you can turn them on by ticking the check box to see specific options under the submission status.
