Free and secure AI tools for teachers and students.

Google has unveiled Gemini for Education , a purpose-built version of its Gemini 2.5 Pro AI model designed to support learning for both students and teachers. Unlike commercial AI versions, this offering integrates directly into the Google Workspace for Education ecosystem , with high security standards and customizable management.

The goal of Gemini for Education is not only to provide access to advanced AI models, but also to do so in a secure, controlled manner, with features specifically designed for education. And best of all, it’s available at no additional cost for all editions of Google Workspace for Education.

Free access to advanced models with institutional control

One of the pillars of this initiative is the free, limited-use Gemini 2.5 Pro model , which is much more powerful than the free consumer versions. This allows educational institutions to take advantage of a top-tier AI tool without worrying about additional costs or inappropriate data use.

Thanks to the integration with Google Workspace, school administrators can manage who accesses these features, track usage, and implement custom settings from the admin console. All this oversight ensures a trustworthy environment, where AI becomes an ally, not a source of concern.

Gemini in Classroom: Over 30 New Features for Teachers

One of the big players is Gemini in Classroom , an integration now available for free to all educational users. This feature incorporates more than 30 new tools designed to facilitate lesson planning .

For example, teachers can generate vocabulary lists with definitions and examples, create quizzes and surveys in Google Forms from existing documents or presentations, and even receive automatic summaries of form responses. A task that could previously take hours is now completed in minutes.

Personalization of learning for students over 18 years of age

For adult learners, Gemini opens up a range of personalized study possibilities. With the Gemini Canvas feature , they can create customized quizzes on any topic, prepare for exams, and test their understanding with just a few prompts.

In addition, interactive diagrams will soon be added to accompany Gemini’s answers, making it easier to visualize complex concepts—especially useful in subjects like physics, biology, and mathematics.

Creating multimedia content with AI

Google is also extending AI to educational content creation. With tools like Veo 3 in Google Vids , educators can create short videos with sound effects to announce activities, explain concepts, or design professional development materials. And with the arrival of video summaries in NotebookLM , understanding learning materials becomes more dynamic and engaging.

Custom Gems: AI for the Classroom

Within the Gemini app, educators can design what Google calls “Gems” : specialized versions of the assistant that focus on specific topics or dynamics. For example, a Gem focused on interactive simulations can be leveraged within course content to reinforce learning.

One of the most anticipated new features is the ability to share these Gems among teachers , opening the door to an AI-powered community of educational creation and collaboration.

Integration with popular educational platforms

Gemini’s connectivity isn’t limited to Google alone. With the enhancement of Gemini LTI , it’s now possible to integrate with platforms like PowerSchool Schoology Learning and Instructure’s Canvas , making it easier to incorporate AI into teachers’ daily work, both for content creation and student interaction.

Data protection and responsible use: absolute priority

Google has taken special care to ensure that Gemini’s use in educational settings is safe for everyone. To this end, it has implemented strict content moderation policies , specifically designed to protect minors. For example, no data from student conversations will be used to train AI models.

Additionally, AI literacy resources , such as guides and lesson plans, have been developed to help educators teach their students how to use these tools critically and responsibly. These initiatives are supported by organizations such as ConnectSafely and the Family Online Safety Institute .

Full monitoring from the management console

With the Google Workspace admin console, school leaders can control which users have access to Gemini and NotebookLM , review conversations through Vault, and generate usage reports. This transparency reinforces confidence that the technology is being used for genuine educational purposes.

Gemini has also received the Common Sense Media Privacy Seal , reaffirming its commitment to digital safety in school environments.

Conclusion: AI accessible and adapted to classrooms

With Gemini for Education, Google is taking an important step toward the responsible and effective integration of artificial intelligence into learning . By offering advanced tools at no additional cost, tailored to the school context, and with full administrative control, the offering enables both students and educators to fully leverage the potential of AI without compromising privacy or security.
