Google announced the Guided Learning attachment for Classroom on November 4. In a new assignment on a computer, choose Guided Learning under Attach and add a source. Google recommends starting with one and allows up to five. The assignment’s Instructions field is for students. Google’s teacher guide says Gemini does not use that field in the activity.
Put the learning context in the source
For a lesson on map scale, attach a one-page handout explaining that 1 cm on the sample map represents 200 m. In the assignment instructions, tell students to submit their own calculation and one sentence explaining it. Make sure they have access to the handout.
Check the preview before assigning
Open Create and preview and ask what one centimetre represents on the sample map. Compare the reply or hint with the handout. If it relies on a different scale, check the attachment and its wording. The feature is rolling out for Education Fundamentals, Standard and Plus. Teachers and students need Gemini access enabled by their administrator for their respective use.
