Google Expands AI-Powered Learning Tools Across Africa

Google has announced an expansion of its AI-powered learning tools across Africa. The company is offering eligible higher education students in 27 countries a year's worth of Google AI Plus at no cost.

The offer includes access to Gemini Omni, which provides twice the usage limits in Gemini and 400 GB of cloud storage across Google Drive, Gmail, and Google Photos. This expansion follows last year's Gemini Student offer and will see students who previously claimed the offer renew their access for another 12 months, subject to re-verification.

Google's AI learning tools are designed to help students work through complex topics, explore ideas, and develop a deeper understanding of their subjects. The student experience using Google AI Plus includes a dedicated space in Gemini where students can access learning tools, organize their studies, create practice quizzes, and explore different ways to learn.
