The Google for Education Community Platform

In a recent "EDU on Air for Higher Education" session, academic leaders explored how to build collaborative AI policies while respecting academic freedom and digital equity. Learn how to transition from restrictive silos to active, educator-led governance.

Help me create in Google Forms now supports generating quizzes.

With this launch, you can quickly create a quiz by writing a specific prompt for Help me create describing the quiz you want to create. Your prompt can reference Google Drive files like Docs, Slides or PDFs to use as sources for the quiz, should you choose.

As generative tools reshape higher education, traditional approaches to academic integrity and the take-home essay are no longer enough. In our latest Google Faculty Group event, we explored why shifting to process-based assessment and prioritizing core human skills like empathy and ethical choice is essential for modern pedagogy.

If artificial intelligence can write the code or draft the essay, what is the value of teaching the baseline skill? At the 2026 Nobel Prize Dialogue, Google DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis argued that foundational subject-matter expertise is actually an educator's greatest leverage point—giving students 10 times the leverage when using AI. Read our weekly recap to watch the panel and explore what this shift means for your classroom.

Are you tired of playing catch-up with university-wide AI mandates that do not quite fit your discipline? Our latest discussion, GFG Events: Communicating Course Expectations for AI Use, tackled the messy, nuanced reality of setting AI expectations. Dr. Jon Becker and Dr. Lance Eaton shared concrete ways to co-create syllabus norms with students and reframe the conversation from what students can do with generative tools to what they should do to protect their learning.

How do we prevent artificial intelligence from turning into an intellectual shortcut for our students? In our latest Google for Education event, "Designing Away from Cognitive Off-Loading," Dr. Elisabeth Bauer (University of Augsburg) and Dr. James Basham (University of Kansas) joined us to tackle this precise challenge. Rather than resisting technological shifts, the conversation focused on a problem-first approach: redesigning assessments around the process of learning, preserving the productive struggle, and leveraging Universal Design for Learning (UDL) frameworks to ensure technology acts as an inclusive pedagogical partner.

If you are looking for concrete guardrails to move your students past basic AI literacy and toward metacognitive fluency, this session offers the blueprint you need.
