Google introduces new features in Gemini Notebook, including 60-second video summaries, interactive learning overviews, and expanded quiz formats to enhance study efficiency.

Google recently enhanced its Gemini Notebook study tool with three new features designed to help students prepare more effectively for exams. These additions aim to make learning more structured, engaging, and personalized.

The first feature is Short Video Overviews, which generates concise 60-second videos that summarize complex concepts. These video snippets are optimized for quick consumption and easy sharing, making them useful for on-the-go review or collaborative study sessions.

Secondly, the Interactive Learning Overview allows users to create guided study sessions from their accumulation of notes, lectures, and readings. Accessible under the Reports section, this feature integrates summaries with dynamic content such as slides, quizzes, and flashcards, all strictly based on the user's own coursework. This step-by-step navigation helps break down extensive material into manageable segments.

Lastly, Gemini Notebook has expanded its quiz capabilities to include new formats such as short-answer, multi-select, and fill-in-the-blank questions. After completing quizzes or flashcard reviews, students can request feedback directly from the notebook, enabling them to identify areas that require additional focus.

These improvements are freely accessible for students to try with their own study content at notebook.google, showing Google's commitment to making exam preparation smarter and more adaptable through AI-powered tools. The release date for these features was October 16, 2026, according to Google's education team.
