Overview
We're so excited to introduce a tool that will feel like having a teaching assistant by your side. AI Assisted Feedback is our newest option in the Comment tool. It is designed to streamline your grading process and make it faster and more efficient. It intelligently scans a student's document and generates high-quality, relevant feedback as draft comments. You are always in the driver's seat, with the power to review, edit, and choose the perfect feedback to add to the work.
Key Features and Benefits
We built this tool to give you back some of your valuable time without compromising the quality of your feedback.
Save Time & Preserve Quality: Instantly generate thoughtful comments on student work, reducing hours of grading to just minutes.
You're in Control: All feedback is generated as a draft. You have the final say in reviewing, editing, or discarding suggestions, ensuring the feedback always aligns with your voice and teaching goals.
Flexible & Adaptable: Whether you're reviewing a single-page worksheet or a multi-page research paper, you can select exactly which pages to analyze. The tool also supports multiple languages!
Customized for Your Needs: Guide the AI by providing your own prompts. You can ask it to focus on specific criteria, such as grammar or argument structure, or even to provide feedback in a more encouraging tone.
Requirements
Before getting started, let's ensure you have everything you need:
An active paid Kami license, such as a Teacher, School, or District Plan.
A Teacher Kami profile.
A file uploaded to either Google Drive or OneDrive. Preferably, a student’s file with their work ready for feedback, but this tool can be used on any uploaded file.
How to Use AI Assisted Feedback
Ready to give it a try? Follow these simple steps to start generating feedback.
Open the student's work in Kami, then select the Comment tool from the toolbar, and choose AI Assisted Feedback among the different options.
The AI Assisted Feedback dialog will open. Select your settings to generate the feedback. Below are the useful settings you can adjust before generating:
Grade level: This setting will adjust the readability.
Language: As the name suggests, this setting determines the language of the feedback.
Generate feedback on: This setting allows you to select specific pages for the tool to analyze and generate feedback on.
(Optional) In the "What type of feedback would you like to give?" section, you can provide more specific prompts for the AI to follow. It also provides the option to upload a file for use as context and guidelines.
Lastly, a toggle is available for you to enable if you want to instruct the AI to follow the tone of existing comments.
Rest assured, your data is anonymized and won't be retained by the AI, so your privacy is protected. For more information about our policies, check out the FAQ section
Once you are ready, click the Generate Feedback button. The AI will now analyze the document and create multiple draft comments on the right-hand side of the document pages. The number of comments generated will vary depending on the page's content and your settings.
Review each suggested comment. To make changes, simply click on the text and start editing.
Click the Approve button when you are satisfied with the result. Otherwise, click the Delete button to remove them. The comments you approved will now appear as standard Text Comment annotations on the document, ready for the student and other collaborators to see.
