PM Publishers, Google Introduce AI-Integrated Textbooks
PM Publishers partners with Google to integrate Gemini AI into 2 million school textbooks, enhancing interactive learning.
Noida (Uttar Pradesh) [India], December 9: PM Publishers Pvt. Ltd. (PMP), a prominent educational publisher serving schools across India since 2009, has announced a landmark collaboration with Google to integrate Google Gemini, the company’s advanced AI assistant, directly into the school textbook learning experience. The initiative aims to transform traditional learning into a dynamic, interactive, and personalised journey for millions of students.
Beginning with the 2026–27 academic session, PMP will embed Gemini into 250+ book titles across key subjects including Computer Science, English, Hindi, Art & Craft, General Knowledge, and Foundation courses, spanning levels from Nursery to Class 10. In the first phase alone, this collaboration is expected to reach over 2 million students across more than 2,000 schools, making it one of the largest AI-driven education deployments in the Indian K–12 sector.
Textbooks Turn Into Interactive AI Tutors
Under this collaboration, each PMP textbook will feature unique QR codes that link to a custom Gemini Gem—a specialised AI model fine-tuned exclusively on the content of that book. These interactive Gems will offer:
-
Chapter-wise summaries
-
Age-appropriate explanations
-
Interactive learning exercises
-
Context-aware answers based on textbook content
-
Additional learning resources designed to reinforce concepts
Older students can independently explore lessons through guided responses, while parents of younger children can use Gemini to simplify explanations and support learning at home.
This dual utility—supporting self-driven study and home learning—positions Gemini as a digital learning companion rather than a traditional search tool.
A Collaboration Designed for the Future of Education
Speaking about the partnership, Rajesh Bajaj, Managing Director, PM Publishers Pvt. Ltd., said:
“Our goal is to make learning more engaging, interactive, and future-ready. With Google Gemini, we are giving students and teachers a powerful tool that amplifies curiosity, supports creativity, and promotes the responsible use of AI in education.”
Echoing the sentiment, Sanjay Jain, Head of Google for Education, India, stated:
“At Google, we believe AI should be a learning companion that sparks curiosity, not just a tool for retrieving answers. By integrating Gemini into PM Publishers’ curriculum, we hope to give students and parents a personal AI tutor grounded in the textbooks they trust and enhance the classroom experience.”
Shifting from Static Learning to Adaptive Digital Support
The introduction of Gemini into PMP’s textbook ecosystem marks a transformative step in Indian K–12 learning. Traditionally, textbooks have served as static resources, requiring teachers or parents to bridge conceptual gaps. With AI integration, explanations, examples, and reinforcement activities become on-demand and personalised.
This move aligns with global education trends where AI is increasingly used to:
-
Support differentiated learning
-
Boost understanding through personalised assistance
-
Encourage self-paced learning
-
Provide responsibly designed digital scaffolding for younger learners
By embedding AI into learning materials themselves, PMP and Google aim to reduce dependency on external digital platforms and make technology a native part of the curriculum.
Impact on Classrooms & Home Learning
Once deployed, students will be able to:
-
Scan a QR code to access a chapter-specific AI tutor
-
Ask concept-related questions
-
Receive contextual answers aligned with the prescribed curriculum
-
Engage in age-appropriate exercises that reinforce learning
Parents will benefit from simplified explanations, while teachers gain a supplementary resource that supports differentiated instruction.
With the education system moving toward hybrid and personalised learning pathways, initiatives like this are poised to redefine classroom interaction and student engagement across India.
