You already use Google Classroom. You're probably not using half of it.
Google has released a dashboard of AI tools for educators built directly into the Google Classroom platform. Not a separate app. Not another login. Right where you already work.
This growing list of 20+ teacher-centered AI tools can save you hundreds of hours each school year.
If you're a K-12 educator, you know the cycle. Endless hours on lesson planning, creating assessments, and writing detailed rubrics. You adopted Google Classroom to save time, but building all those assignments and materials still eats your evenings.
What if you could cut your prep time significantly, and instantly turn AI-generated ideas into assignable tasks for your students?
That's what these tools do. This course shows you how.
First, let's make sure you can use it
Gemini in Google Classroom requires Google Workspace for Education, and it has to be turned on by your school or district admin. Not every district has enabled it yet.
Here's how to check in 30 seconds:
- Open Google Classroom and go to any of your classes.
- Look for the AI tools or Gemini option in your class menu.
- Don't see it? Ask your IT team: "Is Gemini for Education enabled for teacher accounts?"
You're ready. Everything in this course works from day one.
Keep reading. There's still a path for you, and it's the same one.
