What’s changing
We’re excited to announce the launch of Gem integration with Gemini Learning Tools Interoperability (LTI™). This will mean that third party Learning Management Systems (LMS) Canvas by Instructure and PowerSchool Schoology Learning will be able to use Gems. We mentioned this launch when we announced that NotebookLM was added to Gemini LTI™, and are now pleased that the Gems integration is rolling out.
Educators could use the Gem integration to create Gems for FAQs that help students quickly find answers to common questions about assignments, and more. Students could use it to get in-the-moment assistance with real-time coaching using Gems (coming soon).
