Give Every Student a Personal Writing Coach with Boost Writing Activities

Now, instead of running from desk to desk, you can give every student a writing coach right inside their Google Docs with Boost Writing Activities!

What are Boost Writing Activities?

Boost Writing Activities helps students plan, draft, and revise their writing with instant, AI-powered feedback. Whether they need help brainstorming, strengthening their argument, or refining their final draft, Boost is there – so you can focus on teaching, not troubleshooting.

Here’s what you can do with Boost Writing Activities:

• Instantly share a writing prompt – Each student gets their own copy or a blank document to work in.
• Students get real-time feedback – Boost offers guidance as they write, from idea development to final revisions.
• Attach a rubric – Guide Boost’s feedback based on your specific grading criteria.
• Use any starting point – A Google Doc with a writing prompt or template, a YouTube video, or even an article.
