Switching languages on Chromebooks is as easy as pie, helping our bilingual students feel right at home.

Introducing AI in the Classroom

This school year, AI is a hot topic, sparking engagement and innovation in the classroom. Explore these Google tools with your students to help introduce the basics of AI.

Introducing Experience AI

Experience AI is an educational program for teachers and students aged 11–14, offering cutting-edge resources on artificial intelligence and machine learning. Developed by the Raspberry Pi Foundation and Google DeepMind, it supports teachers and ignites students' passion for AI.

For younger students, try Google’s “Quick Draw!” to introduce AI concepts. It's a fun, interactive game where students draw pictures, and an AI tries to identify them. This activity makes learning about AI engaging and accessible for all ages.
