Learning with Google
Learning is at the heart of what Google does, and for more than 15 years we’ve been working to bring the best of Google to education. We’re continuously updating our technology to help the education community adjust to challenges and plan for the future. Together, we can make learning and teach more possible for everyone, anywhere. At our virtual event, Learning with Google, we’re sharing 50+ new features across our education products and our commitments to learning.

New safety and engagement features in Google Meet
Over the past year, video conferencing became an essential tool for teaching, learning, and staying connected. As part of our commitment to building products and programs to expand learning for everyone, we're bringing new features to Meet to help educators keep virtual classes secure and students engaged.
More options for learning with Google Workspace for Education
During the 15 years that Google has been building tools for educators, we’ve seen the needs of instructors, education leaders and students evolve. We’ve learned that a one-size-fits-all approach isn't what educators need from tools like G Suite for Education. Whether you're in a rural elementary school, urban university, or homeschool setting, our technology and tools should adapt so you can focus on what matters most: teaching and learning. That's why we're making a few changes to provide you greater choice and flexibility in selecting the best tools to empower your institution.
A peek at what's next for Google Classroom
Over the last year, the education community had to quickly adapt to challenges, and Google Classroom evolved with them. Today, Google Classroom helps more than 150 million students, educators, and school leaders around the world teach and learn — up from 40 million last year. Here’s a sneak peek into new features coming to Classroom over the next year — from the ability to use Classroom with other tools and more controls to features that help students learn from anywhere, as well as a simplified workflow for teachers.
50+ New Education Features
Over the past year, the education community has inspired us with their creativity and resilience, while always remaining focused on their students. Today, we’d like to share our commitments to this community and a glimpse into some of the 50+ new features across our education products that we hope will support even more learning. To get the full scoop on these announcements, tune in to Learning with Google, our global event streaming in 15 languages where you’ll hear a lot more directly from our team.
How Cloud Solutions support students and schools
Google Cloud tools make it possible for institutions to make sense of billions of data sets from across hundreds of data systems. Google Cloud Student Success Services can help schools at every academic level improve the student experience, from matriculation to graduation.
Chromebooks get an education refresh
Chromebooks — which last year were largely used as classroom tools for writing reports and working on projects — are now the main way many students go to school. As distance learning takes place around the world, educators and students have had to quickly adapt to teaching and learning through Chromebooks. And along the way, we’ve updated features and tools to make learning from anywhere easier.
This year, we have 40 new devices and accessibility improvements coming so that every student can learn the way they want to.
