What happened

Eric Curts of Control Alt Achieve says EduGems is being renamed EduPrompts as Google transitions from Gems to Skills. The new address is active and points to the existing site; the old address will eventually redirect. Curts says Gems will be converted to Skills and remain available until Google discontinues Gems in summer 2027.

Why it matters

For educators and course designers, the change affects how reusable Gemini prompts are packaged and shared, not just the site's name. Curts says he will also create Gemini Notebook versions, which he says can offer another way to use prompts and assign them to students. He reports 174 school-focused prompts, more than 900,000 visits and over 200,000 active users, figures he gives for the site as of writing.

What to do next

Teams using a Gem from the site can check whether a Skill version is available, while noting Curts says Gems will remain available until Google officially discontinues them in summer 2027. For student assignments, review Notebook versions when published and test them against the intended task before adopting them. If a tool-specific format is unsuitable, Curts says prompts can be copied into another AI tool. The post gives no conversion schedule, compatibility details, or order for Notebook releases, so verify availability and functionality locally rather than assuming formats work alike.
