  • EDT128 Google Gemini for Education
    Jul 10 2025
    Google announced Gemini for Education. In this episode, I break it all down, from Deep Research and Gemini Canvas to Gems, Gemini Live, and more. I also discuss the difference between the paid and free versions as well as the admin controls and privacy features in it. Plus, in the soapbox moment, I dig into the importance of growth mindset, perseverance, and what we can all learn from the Learning Pit. #EduDuctTape Episode 128 0:00:00 INTRO 0:02:31 Today's Soapbox Moment: “Rental Skates, Paintballs, and the Messy Middle” - The Anthropocene Reviewed - https://amzn.to/4eFD309 (Amazon affiliate link) - The Learning Pit - https://www.learningpit.org 0:07:52 EdTech & Edu News Updates 0:08:21 Introducing Gemini for Education - https://edu.google.com/intl/ALL_us/ai/gemini-for-education - https://services.google.com/fh/files/misc/gfe_launch_guide_iste2025.pdf 0:09:29 Gemini Live - https://gemini.google/overview/gemini-live/?hl=en 0:11:38 Deep Research - https://gemini.google/overview/deep-research - https://workspace.google.com/blog/ai-and-machine-learning/meet-deep-research-your-new-ai-research-assistant - https://blog.google/products/gemini/deep-research-gemini-2-5-pro-experimental/ - https://blog.google/products/gemini/google-gemini-deep-research/ - https://support.google.com/gemini/answer/15719111 0:15:56 Gemini Canvas - https://gemini.google/overview/canvas/?hl=en 0:18:29 Gemini Gems - https://gemini.google/overview/gems/?hl=en - https://services.google.com/fh/files/misc/gems_one_pager_education.pdf - https://workspaceupdates.googleblog.com/2025/07/gems-in-the-side-panel-of-google-workspace-apps.html - https://support.google.com/docs/answer/14206696?hl=en&sjid=18317434446311439557-NA 0:21:55 Gemini for Education Safety and Privacy 0:23:11 Free vs. Pro: What You Get with Gemini for Education - https://gemini.google/subscriptions 0:27:30 Admin Controls in Gemini for Education - https://support.google.com/a/answer/14564320 - https://support.google.com/a/answer/14571493 - https://support.google.com/vault/answer/15695746 Send me your thoughts on Bluesky with #EduDuctTape or at Speakpipe.com/EduDuctTape!

  • EDT Jake on The Conversation Podcast
    Jul 2 2025

    Can AI help teachers do more of what matters most? In this episode, I join Rachel and Christina from The Conversation podcast to explore AI’s real impact in schools. We discuss tools like MagicSchool, Diffit, and Brisk, and how they support both students and teachers. We also dive into personalized learning, teacher PD, and the “baby steps” approach to AI adoption. Plus, I share practical insights on balancing tech with humanity in the classroom.

  • EDT127 Quizizz Becomes Wayground, Google Classroom Add-ons, Edpuzzle Quizizz and Slides, a Soapbox, and more!
    Jun 26 2025

    What do a name change, a new font, and fewer browser tabs have in common? In this episode, I unpack the Quizizz rebrand to Wayground, share Edpuzzle’s leap beyond video with new interactive tools, highlight Google Classroom’s latest add-on integrations, and spotlight Google Fonts’ Playwrite—a typeface built to support handwriting instruction. Plus, in the Soapbox moment, I reflect on my son learning to drive and the lessons we’re both picking up along the way.
