💬 You Asked, We Listened! 

Real updates, inspired by educator feedback 

 

Hey friends 👋 
So many of the best ideas for Adobe Express come from you, the teachers and educators who use it in the classroom with your students. 

 

When you say, “I wish Adobe Express could…” our team takes note. This thread is where we’ll keep sharing the improvements that came directly from your feedback (aaand a peek at what’s in the works)! 

Check back on this thread anytime to see what’s new, what’s next, and how other educators are using these updates in their real classrooms. 

November: Two Big Updates!

Educators, you have been loud and clear: you wanted easier and quicker access to podcasting tools for your students…and we heard you!

 

First, a HUGE shout-out to the educators and districts who have been advocating for easier access to creation tools that elevate student voice and showcase student work.

This goes out to Victoria MacEntee, Shelly Veron, Federal Way School District, Detroit Public Schools, Philadelphia Public Schools, NYC Public Schools, Granite School District, and so many of our ACE Innovators who kept telling us what you needed most.

 

 

#1: Podcast is now available as a tile on the Adobe Express for Education home page!

What it does:
Adobe Podcast is now a clickable tile right on the Adobe Express for Education homepage. Students can jump straight into recording, trimming, adding music, designing cover art, and sharing their work! All with automatic transcripts that connect speaking + writing skills.

 

Why it matters:
Podcasting captures authentic student voice: their ideas, reflections, curiosity, passion, and personality in real time. It’s a meaningful snapshot of learning, in their own words.

 

Why we think you'll love it:

  • Student agency: Learners own their stories, build communication skills, and reflect
  • Confidence & communication: Speak, reflect, share, repeat!
  • Multiple ways to show understanding: Diverse modalities for every learner!
  • Shareable beyond the classroom: Connect learning to families, communities, and real audiences.

From school news and science explainers to bilingual storytelling and SEL reflections, podcasting is quickly becoming one of the most powerful ways to elevate student voice — and now it’s easier than ever to get students creating.

#2: Personal Galleries are here!

What it does:
Everyone can now create and publish personal galleries… without starting inside a classroom. Want a portfolio? Travel board? Club inspo? Exemplar collection? Build it. Share it. Make it yours.

  • Look for the Gallery icon in your + Create menu
  • K–12 students can also click “Capture ideas in a gallery” right on Home
  • All published galleries now live in Your Stuff for easy discovery

Why we think you'll love it:

  • Portfolio power
  • Perfect for student exemplars + project showcases
  • Mood boards, club inspiration, travel, journalism, art & STEM
  • A creative space that you truly own

 

We also want to shout out our Adobe team who made this possible: ACPC Edu, Express Edu, UAB, Adobe Home team, Michelle Lu, Mayank Kumar Jain, Nathan Hoover, Handy Patriawan, Raj Inamdar, Ria Chandra, Bhaskar S Prakash, Megha Natarajan, Linda Ma, Sarah Corner, Kristina Christmas
