What is Update Work?

Update Work allows you to edit the file template and have those changes appear on all student copies of a Kami Assignment you've already assigned, even if your students have started working.

Who can use Update Work?

Teachers can use this Feature on any Kami Assignment containing student-copy files. This means non-Kami assignments, view-only, or share-one-copy files cannot use this feature.

How to use Update Work

You can access Update Work by opening the template file of your chosen Kami Assignment.

Assignment Page

Once you select the Kami assignment you want to edit, you'll see options to open in Class View or Edit Assignment.

โœ๏ธ If your students haven't opened the document, it'll automatically take you to the Update Work section.

Select Edit Assignment.

Make the changes in the file, and then once ready, click on the Update all button.

  1. Update all button

  2. Toggle between Update Work and Class View

Once you select the Update all button, you'll see the confirmation window shown below:

When will students see the new changes?

After clicking the Update all button, changes are immediately applied to all student assignment files. Students will see the changes in real time, after refreshing the Kami App tab, or the next time they open their assignment file.
