Google unveils 'Gemini for Education' app and more
Google just introduced Gemini for Education—a new AI-powered tool designed to help teachers and students.
Announced at the 2025 ISTE conference, it's built into Google Workspace for Education and runs on Gemini 2.5 Pro, offering stronger privacy controls and more flexibility in how it's used.
AI can help teachers create interactive lessons
Teachers get interactive diagrams, visuals, and even "Gems"—AI-made simulations based on their own lessons.
There are also Video Overviews that turn notes into easy-to-watch educational videos.
Everything works smoothly with Google Classroom, so sharing notebooks or audio summaries with students is simple.
Google adds new features to ChromeOS
Google is adding handy updates to ChromeOS: think screen sharing in class, live captions in different languages, and a universal document camera app for projecting worksheets—all aimed at making lessons more engaging.
Gemini for Education is free for schools
Schools get Gemini for free as part of Workspace for Education. Want extra video or assessment tools? There are paid upgrades available.
With its Classroom and ChromeOS integration, it's a flexible option if your school wants smarter tech without the hassle.
