My students use Gemini to brainstorm creative ideas.
Fifth graders use Google Gemini to write songs about history and create art. See how this teacher integrates AI into the classroom.
Yogyakarta, Indonesia – In a special education classroom at SLB Negeri 2 Gunungkidul, teacher <name_redacted> is using Gemini to help students who struggle with writing. Each student has unique needs, from different disabilities to varying mental ages and learning styles. The challenge lies in creating individualized learning programs that go beyond abstract instructions and rely on visual aids.
With Gemini on their classroom Chromebooks, <name_redacted> generates simple visual guides, such as images of a child holding a pencil or opening a book. These visual cues allow students who cannot read to instantly comprehend what they see.
The most impactful change has been for students who cannot write. By using voice prompts, these students can speak to Gemini, generate their own images, and express their ideas. This has effectively given a voice to those who have previously been unable to write.
<name_redacted> is also working with colleagues to develop an AI-powered app that streamlines special education planning and programming. For them, AI is not just about saving time; it's about ensuring that a student's disability does not dictate the extent of their learning opportunities.
