In India, eligible students can get a 12-month Google AI Plus subscription at no cost. The offer provides students with higher usage limits on Gemini, AI-powered study tools, 400GB of cloud storage and other features. According to Google’s current student offer terms, the offer can be redeemed until December 31, 2026.
AI Being Positioned as a Study Partner
The new features added to Google Gemini are focused not just on answering questions but also on helping students understand concepts more effectively. The company has introduced a feature called Study Notebooks, which allows students to upload their class notes and other study materials. Gemini can then create a personalised learning experience based on the student’s learning goals.
With Study Notebooks, students can begin with a diagnostic quiz based on their study material. Gemini can identify areas that require more attention and create a plan of shorter, interactive lessons. The learning plan can also be updated based on quiz results and additional material uploaded by the student.
Interactive Visualisations to Help Students Understand Complex Topics
Gemini’s AI-powered learning features are designed to help students understand complex concepts through interactive experiences rather than relying only on text-based explanations. Google has also developed features such as Guided Learning, which aims to help students understand concepts through questions and step-by-step guidance instead of simply providing direct answers.
With the growing use of AI in education, Google has introduced several learning-focused features across Gemini, NotebookLM and Search. According to the company, Gemini is increasingly being used in India as a learning tool, with students using features such as quizzes, flashcards and study guides.
AI Plus Benefits Include 400GB of Storage
The current Google AI Plus plan includes 400GB of cloud storage, higher usage limits for Gemini, AI-powered image, video and music generation capabilities, as well as additional features in NotebookLM. The Google AI Plus plan also provides access to advanced Gemini models along with AI-powered study and research features.
Meanwhile, the Google AI Pro plan offers an expanded set of AI features, including higher usage limits and 5TB of storage. Since the features and benefits of AI Plus and AI Pro differ in India, students should check the terms and available features of the selected plan before claiming the offer.
Who Is Eligible for the Offer?
According to Google’s current Student Offer Terms, students must be at least 16 years old and enrolled in a higher education institution in a country or region where Google AI Plus is supported. Students are required to verify their student status and may also need a personal Google Account and Google Payments Account.
How to Claim the Student Offer
Eligible students can visit the Google One Student Offer page and sign in using their personal Google Account. They can then select the available Student Offer and click on “Get student offer.” Students will need to verify their eligibility. According to Google’s current Student Offer Terms, student status may be verified through a valid school email address when required.
A Step Towards Promoting AI in Education
Google’s student-focused offer can be seen as an important step towards making AI-powered education more accessible to students in India. Features such as Study Notebooks, personalised learning plans, quizzes, flashcards and interactive learning through Gemini can help students study according to their individual learning needs. The ability to connect their course materials with AI-powered tools can be particularly useful for students seeking a more personalised learning experience.
However, while using AI for education, students should verify the information generated by AI through reliable academic sources and use these tools alongside their own understanding and guidance from teachers. Overall, Google’s initiative represents a significant move towards bringing AI-powered personalised learning to students in India and making the learning experience more interactive and technology-enabled.
