Google launched study notebooks within the Gemini app on June 25, 2026, offering students a goal-oriented space to generate personalized academic lessons. By uploading syllabi, notes, and reading materials, users initiate a diagnostic quiz that establishes an academic baseline and identifies specific knowledge gaps. This process allows Gemini to build a tailored learning plan, moving beyond generic study methods.

The platform provides bite-sized lessons derived from uploaded course content, supplemented by practice quizzes that verify comprehension. Users can pause these lessons to ask clarifying questions directly within the interface. Google plans to enhance this experience later this summer by introducing diagrams and interactive visualizations to the lesson format.

A skill-based progress dashboard facilitates tracking by segmenting learning goals into more than 100 distinct objectives grouped by topic. The system categorizes these as "Strengths," "Focus areas," or "Not started," automatically updating as users complete follow-up quizzes. The dashboard prioritizes and recommends the next best lessons to keep learners on track. Additionally, the tool supports standardized exam preparation, currently featuring content from The Princeton Review for the SAT, with plans to expand support for the JEE, NEET, ENEM, ACT, and GRE throughout the summer. The feature is integrated with NotebookLM, allowing users to reference past chats and generate supplementary materials like flashcards and video overviews. Study notebooks are available globally in all languages.
