7 ways to kick-start back to school using Gemini in Workspace

Google Workspace with Gemini offers seven ways to enhance your school year. Gemini can transform Google Sheets into interactive mini apps, acting as a virtual planner or semester dashboard. By inputting class schedules and syllabuses, you can create visual dashboards with Kanban boards, calendars, and filters. For study sessions, Gemini can convert raw notes into structured study guides, complete with key takeaways, sample test questions, and custom infographics.

By highlighting notes in Docs, you can prompt Gemini to summarize notes or generate exam questions. Gemini also streamlines meeting tasks by automatically capturing action items, key decisions, and screenshots in a Google Doc. This feature works for virtual meetings in Google Meet or in-person discussions. Lastly, Google Vids enables you to create, edit, and collaborate on videos using AI features.

With a simple upload of a picture, you can generate an AI video, adding music, avatars, and more to bring your project ideas to life.
