Purpose: Overcome resource creation fatigue using Google's free AI to design personalized learning.
Subject Area: Cross-curricular / All Subject Areas.
Content: Cut through the AI chatter by focusing on Google Classroom. We explore prompt engineering with Gemini, apply Custom Gems as targeted aids, and use NotebookLM to synthesize Drive files into dynamic study spaces.
Objectives (What Participants Will Learn):
* Gemini: Generate customized reading and rubrics.
* Gems: Deploy interactive, subject-specific tutors.
* NotebookLM: Transform static documents into interactive hubs.
Active Engagement: This session uses rapid-fire, live demonstrations. I will run real-time demos across multiple grades. Participants engage via Q&A and suggest live scenarios, watching as Gemini differentiates text, Gems are configured, and NotebookLM creates dynamic study spaces instantly.
