Who can use this?
👤 The Kami Questions AI tool is available for Teachers.
We always recommend reviewing any AI-generated content in Kami to ensure it is accurate, appropriate, and matches your unique teaching style.
What is the Questions AI tool?

Choose from a variety of question types.
Set correct answers and assign points for them.
Test and review the questions before assigning them in your LMS.
View autograded results of students’ work with the Class View feature.

How to use the Questions tool
Select Questions AI from the Kami toolbar. A menu window with three different options will appear on the right side of your screen:
💡 To access all the features of the Questions tool, check to make sure that the Kami AI tools are enabled.
Convert
If you have an existing learning resource/document with questions, you can select the Convert AI option.
After selecting, you’ll see two further options:
Convert the current document — This allows the AI to convert the document’s content into autograding questions.
Convert other PDF — If you want to convert another file (with or without content) separate from the one currently open in Kami, use this option. You'll be prompted to upload the file from Google Drive or OneDrive.
Next, you'll be prompted to specify which pages of your document you'd like to convert into questions. You can set a page range or a custom selection of specific pages.
Once finished, press the Convert questions button at the bottom of the window.
Kami AI will then start converting your questions. Once it's finished, your questions will be available to edit to suit your teaching style or students' needs.
Generate
The Generate AI questions option functions similarly to the Convert AI option, but in this case, the Kami AI will create autograding questions directly from the current document's content—perfect for creating assessments from curriculum content.
After selecting, you’ll be prompted to customize your questions with several settings:
Grade level — Assign the grade level of your questions. Select from grades 1 through 12.
Language — Select from the list of available languages for your questions to be generated in.
Select pages — Specify which pages of your document you'd like to use to generate your questions. You can set a page range or a custom selection of specific pages.
Question type — Choose from Multiple choice or Short answer.
Number of questions — Set the number of questions you'd like to generate (maximum of 10 questions).
Advanced settings
Number of options — For multiple choice question types, set the number of answer options to be created for each question. Select from 2 to 6 options.
Difficulty level — Choose from At grade level (default), Below grade level or Above grade level.
Depth of Knowledge level — Choose from Level 1 through 4. See below for a short description of each:
Level 1: Recall and Reproduction
Tasks at this level require basic recall of facts, definitions, or simple procedures. The focus is on rote memorization and straightforward application.
Level 2: Skills and Concepts
Tasks at this level involve more than one cognitive step. They require students to apply skills and concepts, often involving decision-making or reasoning.
Level 3: Strategic Thinking
Tasks at this level require reasoning, planning, and the use of evidence. They often involve abstract thinking and greater complexity in the decision-making process.
Level 4: Extended Thinking
Tasks at this level involve complex reasoning, planning, developing, and thinking over an extended period. They often require synthesizing information from multiple sources and making connections across disciplines.
Once finished, press the Generate questions button at the bottom of the window.
Kami AI will then start generating your questions. Once it's finished, your questions will be available to edit to suit your teaching style or students' needs.
Create from scratch
This option does not utilize Kami AI to develop questions. Simply type your question and answer key manually, then customize the settings.
With this option, your questions can be multiple choice, checkboxes, short answer, dropdown, or open-ended.
You'll also have toggle options to display your question on the page, show the answer option/field only, randomize order, allow partial matches (for short answer questions only), or add a hint (for short answer questions only).
How to edit your generated/created questions
All questions and answers are editable, even if they've been created with Kami AI.
The settings for each question can be found at the bottom of the question side panel.
The options shown here will be the same as if you were to create your questions from scratch (described above).
Customize how your questions are shown to students
Questions AI gives you the choice between having the full question on the page or a marker with the question shown on the right side page in the Questions panel (similar to a Comment tool anchor point).
Below are examples of each option and how to select it:
What your student sees:
Navigation tips and other helpful settings
The three-dot ellipsis menu allows you to view your questions more conveniently. It also lets you delete them all and start over.
The + button lets you add/create your own questions alongside the generated ones.
The binoculars button lets you preview the questions on the page as the student would see them.
Another navigation menu appears at the bottom of all generated questions. This is just the main menu, so you have an easy way to restart the process if needed.
