2. Get organized with the new student hub.
New in the Gemini app, we’ve built a dedicated hub
6
to get you started with all of Gemini’s tools and offers, just for students. The hub helps keep you organized; start a study notebook, create flashcards, take a practice quiz and more. As Gemini creates more learning tools, you’ll find them here in your student hub.
Access it at gemini.google.com/students.
3. Set up your study notebooks.
Studying can feel overwhelming when you don’t know what to tackle first. That’s why we launched study notebooks7
in June to guide you step-by-step through the learning process. Once you’ve uploaded your own class materials like lecture notes, Gemini sets up your study notebook with a gameplan to break down your learning topics. It gives you the option to take a diagnostic quiz to identify your unique knowledge gaps so that it can craft custom, bite-sized lessons and quizzes for you — complete with a real-time progress dashboard to track your milestones.
In the coming weeks, study notebooks will be even more helpful with graphs and images as part of your lessons. And so you never miss a deadline, Gemini will even schedule your key dates (like exams and assignment due dates) in Google Calendar from your syllabus — with your permission. And with access to Google AI Plus and Google AI Pro, you can create even more notebooks with even more hub
4. Dive deeper with interactive visualizations.
Prefer learning with visuals? With interactive visualizations,

Gemini can generate functional 3D simulations to help you better understand the topic you’re asking about. Responses include visual elements — like tables, grids, and simulations — made specifically for your question. For example, ask about a topic that could be explained visually, like “show me how DNA works in 3D,” and you’ll be able to interactively rotate and zoom into a 3D DNA structure. Or ask to watch a pendulum trade energy back and forth, or learn about cash burn rates through an interactive table.
5. Talk through research with Gemini Live.
Gemini Live provides a natural, conversational way to study — especially on the go. You can talk through your problem set or chat through materials from your Drive, and now when you want to explore a topic in more depth, Gemini Live will be ready.
Rolling out today, we’re bringing the power of Deep Research into Gemini Live

so you can launch comprehensive, multi-step research reports and chat with Gemini about them. Just ask Gemini to research a topic, then feel free to close the chat, lock your screen, or keep chatting about other things. Gemini works asynchronously in the background and sends a notification when your report is ready. Once it is, you can chat through the results, ask follow-up questions, or refine the details hands-free.
The student hub, study notebooks, interactive visualizations, and Deep Research in Gemini Live are rolling out today to all Gemini app users. Whether your goal this semester is to stay effortlessly organized, explore a new major, or ace your classes, Gemini’s here to help. It’s your personalized study buddy, grounded in all of your class materials ready to help you tackle whatever comes your way.
