Kami on an iPad for your Learning Management System

Google Classroom

Creating Kami Assignments

You can't install the Kami extension on any iPad, which means you cannot create Kami assignments in Google Classroom when using an iPad. We recommend creating the Kami assignments using a PC or laptop device that can install the extension.

✏️ It is essential to remember to tick the box for Add Links for Mobile Devices when you create your assignments for iPad users. This enables your students to open the Kami assignment into Kami from Google Classroom.

Opening and turning in Kami Assignments

For students, they can work on their Kami assignments using their iPads. Follow these simple steps:

  1. Go to the assignment in Google Classroom and select the Open with Kami button, just like how it looks in this screenshot. It will open the assignment into Kami.

  2. Once you have completed your work in Kami, you can now use the Turn In button located at the top right-hand side of Kami.
