Session Description

Gemini and Gemini Notebook are more than simple AI chat tools. They are integrated assistants within Google Workspace that can help draft content, manage communication, analyze information, and turn everyday documents into useful insights. In this practical, demonstration-based session, participants will explore what these tools do especially well, where they are most useful in daily work, and how to begin using them effectively across common tasks.

The emphasis throughout is on where these tools genuinely help in an ordinary week. Participants will see Gemini drafting and triaging in Gmail, writing and reshaping content in Docs, and analyzing and summarizing data in Sheets, and will see Gemini Notebook turn a folder of source documents into something that can be questioned, summarized, and briefed from. Equal attention is paid to judgment—checking figures against the source, noticing where a summary has drifted from what the documents actually say, and thinking carefully about what belongs in a prompt when the underlying material is confidential, student-related, or otherwise protected. Because Gems are available at no cost, every participant leaves with at least one thing they can rebuild on their own account.
