Throughout history, new technologies – from printing presses to the Internet – have reshaped how we learn. Today, with the rise of AI, we are starting the next big step.
The world has made remarkable progress in increasing access to education, with 90% of the country's aging children now enrolled in school. But students around the world still face significant challenges. Many communities do not have access to high-quality educational resources, and professionals SAFE The world will need 44 million more teachers by the year 2030. These trends put a strain on our education systems, but we believe AI can help.
To realize this possibility, AI learning tools must help students develop deeper understanding, not just deliver quick answers. They should spark curiosity and engage students in the discovery process – not offer a shortcut.
Our mission at google is not a place where learning and teaching are important, but to support teachers and learn more, be successful and engage – not only – but a lifelong curiosity. The Internet has helped people access information. AI can help them understand and use it in a way that reflects their learning preferences and interests.
Our tools are built for students
Our learning tools are purpose-built and based on cutting-edge learning science. The governing AI models are based on walking principles and developed in collaboration with learning experts to make real learning.
For example, in Gemini, people can choose a guided learning method that helps them find the answer instead of just extracting it. We've added ways to YouTube and search for more chats, too, so students can ask questions as they learn on those platforms. Notebooklm helps you learn better using your sources and turning content into quizzes, flashcards or audio or video experiences. For teachers, our AI-powered Google Classroom tools can serve as powerful assistants, helping with lesson planning and administrative tasks so teachers can focus on what's most important: motivating and supporting their students.
Our commitment to commitment
We also know that AI presents important questions that we must collectively address. There are issues such as manipulation, equal access, accuracy, security and ensuring that ai tasters rather than eliminating critical thinking is about trust.
We are focused on helping the academic community navigate the challenges of academic integrity. This means helping students — and students everywhere — develop the AI literacy necessary to use these tools more effectively. This includes ways to rethink the tests of the world powered by AI, including changing the test methods that AI cannot replicate, such as in-class debates, portfolio projects and oral exams.
Ultimately, the promise of AI for learning cannot be achieved alone. We are committed to understanding and incorporating the views of educators, parents, policy makers and students on our learning opportunities and ensuring that their benefits are distributed equally around the world.
By combining the art of teaching with the science of learning, we want to help everyone reach their full potential.
