In 2026, Google announced a collaboration with the nonprofit Khan Academy to develop educational AI tools employing Google's Gemini models. Khan Academy integrated Gemini into its Writing Coach tool for grades 7-12, providing feedback and examples to help students improve writing skills. A future Reading Coach tool, also powered by Gemini, was planned to support grades 5-12.
Additionally, Schoolhouse.world incorporated Gemini to offer feedback and practice simulations for tutors, aiming to elevate tutoring session quality and confidence. The partnership emphasizes guiding students through learning processes rather than merely answering questions, relying on learning science and educator insights to shape AI tools.
