I've turned off Gem sharing at the student OU level, but now it looks like they can't receive one shared through Google Classroom or directly through gemini.google.com.</P> Thu, 16 Oct 2025 23:06:17 GMT steve 2025-10-16T23:06:17Z https://www.googleforeducommunity.com/t5/Peer-Peer-Topics/Sharing-Gems-with-Students/m-p/181088#M4538 <P>Is it possible to allow teachers to share Gems with students, but not allow students to share their own Gems?

Teach responsible use of technology. What is the risk you are concerned about?&nbsp;</P> Thu, 16 Oct 2025 23:12:53 GMT https://www.googleforeducommunity.com/t5/Peer-Peer-Topics/Sharing-Gems-with-Students/m-p/181089#M4539 claycodes 2025-10-16T23:12:53Z https://www.googleforeducommunity.com/t5/Peer-Peer-Topics/Sharing-Gems-with-Students/m-p/181125#M4550 <P>Thanks for confirming. I don't have any specific concerns, it just seems like another potential distraction. I'm not seeing the benefit of students sharing Gems with one another. We do try to teach responsible tech use, but when we keep putting more and more distractions in front of our students many of them don't yet have the executive function or the will to not try to abuse it in some way.&nbsp;</P> Fri, 17 Oct 2025 16:46:20 GMT https://www.googleforeducommunity.com/t5/Peer-Peer-Topics/Sharing-Gems-with-Students/m-p/181125#M4550 steve 2025-10-17T16:46:20Z
