Saving teachers time while building AI literacy in Sweden
Through a partnership with school districts across Sweden to bring Gemini for Education to nearly 30,000 students and faculty members, schools are embracing AI’s potential to transform learning. Teachers are using Gemini to create high-quality, tailored materials — a shift one educator describes as “revolutionary” because it allows them to invest more time with their students. According to Johan Kellén, teacher & ICT Coordinator at Linköping Municipality, it takes so long to produce good teaching material — you usually have to construct it yourself and ensure it is up to date and current, and adapted to each class and sometimes each student. This is where Gemini is able to help.
Districts hosted workshops to empower educators to use Gemini and foster dialogue with older students about utilizing Guided Learning mode as a study aid. They believe AI literacy is a shared responsibility.
Leading the charge for safe, secure digital learning in Norway
In a landmark move for digital privacy, Norway completed a national Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA), greenlighting the use of Google Workspace for Education and ChromeOS in schools. This collaborative achievement between Google Cloud and the Norwegian Association of Local and Regional Authorities (KS) is a prime example of public sector efficiency. By conducting a centrally driven DPIA, KS eliminated the need for every single municipality to conduct their own complex assessments, highlighting how Google tools meet stringent GDPR requirements and ensuring that local resources focus on innovation over administrative compliance.
By prioritizing trust and partnering with Google, Norway has secured a safe, innovative learning environment for students while saving IT administrators significant time and resources.
