Teaching Tools Enhancement in August by Gemini: Introducing Structured Instruction, Children's Tales, and Advanced Artificial Intelligence for Pupils
Google's August Edition of Gemini Drops Unveils Exciting Updates
Google's AI assistant, Gemini, continues to evolve with the August edition of Gemini Drops, introducing a host of new features designed to enhance user experience.
Guided Learning for Students
One of the major updates in this edition is the introduction of "Guided Learning" for students. This feature functions as an interactive, AI-powered personal tutor, designed to help students deeply understand complex subjects rather than just providing direct answers. It breaks down problems step-by-step, adapts explanations to the learner’s pace and knowledge level, and incorporates multimedia elements like images, diagrams, videos, and interactive quizzes to facilitate comprehension.
Personal Context
Another significant addition to the Gemini app is the "Personal context" feature. This update allows Gemini to remember and callback to previous chats, providing a more personalised and seamless user experience.
Temporary Chats
Temporary Chats are now available, offering users more privacy when asking questions. These chats will not be remembered by the AI, ensuring confidentiality for sensitive discussions.
Storybook Feature
The August edition also introduces the new Storybook feature for Gemini. This innovative tool allows users to create a specific story based on a photo and tailors it to their child's age and interests. Parents can create illustrated and AI-voiced storybooks for their kids using their own photos, their child's drawings, and more.
Deep Thinking Upgrade
For Gemini Ultra subscribers, the AI's "Deep Thinking" upgrade is now available. This enhancement enables the AI to better answer complex math and coding problems.
Availability
While Temporary Chats are currently rolling out, it may take a few weeks for this feature to reach more users. The Storybook feature, on the other hand, is available globally on computers and mobile devices.
Initially introduced in July, Gemini Drops provides a complete roundup of the latest updates for the AI. With these new features, Gemini continues to solidify its position as a versatile and innovative AI assistant.
