KAMI

The Free version of Kami PDF annotator is a Chrome extension MDUSD Special Ed students automatically have access to with their MDUSD Google account.  This will allow a student to type onto classroom handouts that are in PDFs format delivered to students with Google Classroom and Drive.  The features of this free version included markup tools to assist with close reading and highlighting, strikethrough, underlining, textbox, drawing, adding shapes, and eraser.  


Kami Pro

To provide print support for PDFs MDUSD AT Services will be sending an activation code for a Kami Pro upgrade. This will provide additional tools such as a dictionary, adding equations, media, video/voice comments, and read-aloud features to be used with PDFs.  You MUST assist the student with going through this upgrade process.
