Today, we\u2019re announcing new capabilities built to help educators and students save time, create impactful content, and deepen learning experiences within Copilot for Microsoft 365. We\u2019ll also share over a dozen updates including global expansion of Khanmigo for Teachers, Minecraft Education Lesson Crafter, Learning Accelerators and Teams for Education news, free access to Figma through our new partnership, and more value coming to Microsoft Education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We\u2019re thrilled to share over 20 updates and resources and show them in action next week at ISTELive 24 in Denver, Colorado, US. Join us at the show to learn more and hear about the latest from Microsoft Education at our booth and in dozens of sessions<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We\u2019ve loved seeing the early adoption and benefits from education institutions<\/a> already using Microsoft Copilot<\/a>, our no-cost AI-powered chat with data protection, and Copilot for Microsoft 365<\/a>, an add-on for AI assistance integrated with the apps you use every day. We\u2019re excited to now bring even more value to education in Copilot for Microsoft 365 with a new set of capabilities designed for relevant and powerful use by educators and students. These features will be included in Copilot for Microsoft 365 and will be in private previews over the coming months. Education institutions with any academic license are eligible to purchase Copilot for Microsoft 365, with no minimum, for their faculty, staff, and students aged 18 and older.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Educators will be able to use a guided content generation<\/strong> experience to easily kickstart materials like assignments, lesson plans, lecture slides, and more based on pedagogical requirements across Microsoft 365 apps such as Teams, Word, and PowerPoint. This includes the ability to align content to over five million education standards from 35 countries for both public and private institutions through EdGate<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nEnhancing Copilot for Microsoft 365 in education<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
