That quiz establishes a baseline for each student’s understanding. From there, the study notebook highlights strengths and weaknesses and uses those results to build a more targeted study plan.
The lessons are designed to be short and focused. Each one is built around the student’s knowledge gaps and includes practice quizzes based on the materials they uploaded. Students can also ask questions inside the study notebook while working through a lesson.
Google said more visual lesson formats are coming later this summer, including diagrams and interactive visualizations.
Study notebooks also include a progress dashboard that updates as students complete follow-up quizzes. Gemini breaks each learning goal into more than 100 learning objectives, organizes them by topic and labels progress as “Strengths,” “Focus areas” or “Not started.”
The dashboard also recommends priority lessons, while still allowing students to browse by topic, strength or focus area.
Google is also using study notebooks for standardized test preparation. The feature currently supports SAT prep using questions from The Princeton Review. Google said additional tests, including JEE, NEET, ENEM, ACT and GRE, will be added this summer.
The feature also connects with NotebookLM. Google said students can use the same sources across the Gemini app and NotebookLM to reference past chats, generate flashcards, create Video Overviews and work with uploaded class materials.
Study notebooks are rolling out globally in all languages.
