Summarizing Complex Texts Answer Key

This worksheet guides students in using Google Gemini to simplify or summarize challenging academic passages. Students choose a complex paragraph from a textbook or article, input it into Gemini, and then compare the AI’s explanation or summary to their own understanding. By reflecting on the clarity and accuracy of Gemini’s response, students build comprehension monitoring skills and learn strategies for paraphrasing dense information. The activity emphasizes how summarization enhances understanding and retention of academic content.
