With this update, there will now be multiple ways to create and use rubrics in Classroom: - **\[New\] Draft relevant Classroom rubrics from the assignment creation page:** Within the “Rubrics” section, generate a new Classroom-ready rubric with help from Gemini based on their assignment. Educators can review and edit the proposed rubric criteria before adding it to the assignment, saving valuable prep time. - **Convert existing rubrics files from the assignment creation page:** Within the “Rubrics” section, educators can select an existing rubric they have and instantly convert it to a Classroom-ready rubric. - **Create rubric files from the Gemini tab:** When planning their lessons, educators can collaborate with Gemini to draft a rubric based on information that they provide. They can then export the rubric to Sheets or Docs before attaching it to their class. **Note:** This feature is only available for users over age 18.

Starting **August 10, 2026**, Gemini in Classroom will also be made available to K-12 and higher education students of all ages who have already been granted access to Gemini in Classroom, [Gemini](http://gemini.google.com) and [Gemini Notebook](https://notebooklm.google.com/) by their admin, offering a guided space to interact with these tools. In Classroom, students can access the Gemini tab to transform their class materials into interactive experiences that help them study and learn. For example, students who have access to Gemini can select course materials to create flashcards or practice quizzes with Gemini that are tailored to their class. Students with Gemini Notebook access can also sync the materials provided by their teacher to Gemini Notebook, enabling them to create interactive study guides, audio overviews, infographics, and more.

This update transforms the existing starter prompts into highly contextualized experiences, eliminating the need to go back and forth between Classroom and Gemini to get support relevant to what they’re learning in the classroom. When a student clicks on one of these starter prompts, a new box now appears that allows them to select a specific class and assignment. The Gemini prompt will then incorporate the relevant title, assignment instructions, and curriculum materials as context directly from Google Classroom, ensuring that the resulting interaction is grounded in the student’s academic context.

Users can now anchor comments to a specific time mark in a video, making video collaboration more direct, precise, and contextual. When reviewing a video file, users can choose between adding a timestamped comment or a general file-level comment using a split button in the commenting interface. Each timestamped comment generates a visual marker directly on the video player timeline. Clicking a marker automatically jumps to that point in the video and highlights the associated comment, allowing reviewers and video owners to navigate feedback without manually scrubbing through media files. Standard commenting capabilities—such as editing, resolving, replying, and mentioning colleagues with @ notifications—remain fully supported and integrated with time-anchored notes. This feature streamlines cross-functional workflows by eliminating the need to track timecoded feedback in separate documents, chat threads, or emails. Teams producing demos, training videos, marketing content, or recorded presentations can now conduct precise, asynchronous reviews directly within Drive. While timestamped comments must be created on the web, mobile users viewing videos on iOS or Android will still see these entries formatted as standard file-level comments. ### Getting started - **Admins:** This feature will be available by default for all users. There is no admin control for this feature. - **End users:** There is no end user setting for this feature.

These images leverage the context of your document, so you can generate relevant visuals to accompany your writing without ever leaving Docs or relying on external tools. Plus, you can refine your existing visuals and graphics using simple natural language prompts. | [Learn more](https://workspaceupdates.googleblog.com/2026/07/generate-and-edit-visuals-with-gemini-in-Google-Docs.html). ### Updated options to better view Google Calendar on large monitors To provide users with more control over their viewing experience, we’re updating information density options for the calendar grid.

This update allows users to map separate data series to their own unique x-axis, rather than forcing all series in a single chart to share the same horizontal axis domain. | [Learn more](https://workspaceupdates.googleblog.com/2026/07/create-and-import-scatter-charts-with-multiple-x-series-in-Google-Sheets.html). ### Use Gemini in Google Forms to quickly create a new quiz Help me create in Google Forms now supports generating quizzes. With this launch, you can quickly create a quiz by writing a specific prompt for Help me create describing the quiz you want to create. Your prompt can reference Google Drive files like Docs, Slides or PDFs to use as sources for the quiz, should you choose. | [Learn more](https://workspaceupdates.googleblog.com/2026/07/use-gemini-in-google-forms-to-quickly-create-a-new-quiz.html). ### Prevent accidental disclosures with new Reply All BCC warnings in Gmail To help protect your privacy and ensure intentional communication, we are introducing a new caution notification in Gmail. This feature is designed to prevent accidental information disclosure by alerting users when they are about to "Reply All" to a thread where they were originally BCC’ed. | [Learn more](https://workspaceupdates.googleblog.com/2026/07/prevent-accidental-disclosures-with-new-Reply-All-BCC-warnings-in-Gmail.html).
