Make creativity fun and easy for every student.
Fun is the key to engaging your students, and we make it easy for them to flex their creativity in Adobe Express. This all-in-one creative tool for beginners empowers your students to make anything they dream up — all in one place in a few quick steps. They’ll start with easy-to-use, education-focused templates, and from there they can decide how best to bring their ideas to life, communicate what they know, and make something they’ll be proud to share.
Give students key skills for future success.
With Adobe Express, students can build the creative and persuasive communication skills they need to be ready for next year and their future careers. All they need is an idea, and they can show their thinking in standout creative work that they’ll feel inspired to keep improving as they push the limits of their imagination. Plus, the tool is all about teamwork, so students can get things done faster and build their collaboration chops.
Find instructional support for any lesson you imagine.
Adobe Express works with your go-to lessons and curriculums to remove any roadblocks to classroom engagement. There’s no need to come up with new materials or assignments — just have students create their reflections, reports, and presentations right in the app. And if you need a shot of inspiration or a helping hand, you’ll find free lesson plans and professional development courses on the Adobe Education Exchange so you and your students can create easier, stand out faster, and dream bigger.

Microsoft.
Synch users and groups from Microsoft using SCIMM will reflect user changes in the Adobe Admin console shortly after the change is made without waiting or scheduling a sync. Assign Adobe Express and Adobe Creative Cloud to your synched groups from Azure enabling you to use Security Groups, Dynamic Groups, or groups created on premises and synched to Azure. Copy and paste Adobe Express links directly into Microsoft OneNote and Microsoft Teams for the end user to be able to view a project.
Google Classroom.
We’ve launched a Google Classroom add-on that enables teachers to assign Adobe Express projects directly to their students without leaving Google Classroom. License Adobe Express from your Google Admin Console. Sync your Google OU structure to Adobe to enable license assignment directly to the OU members.
Canvas.
Integrate Adobe Express into your canvas assignment workflow. Using LTI 1.3, users can authenticate from Canvas directly into Adobe Express. Teachers can assign any current project as an assignment for students to use as a template directly from the Canvas assignment process. Teachers can grade and provide feedback using SpeedGrader and return the assignment to the student.

- Education-specific privacy controls: Can be deployed in a way that allows schools and districts to meet student privacy obligations.
- Easier login: Ability to set up single sign-on so students can easily log in with their existing school ID.
- Premium creative assets and student-friendly Adobe Stock images are included, along with safe search for image results that are age-appropriate for K–12 students.
- There are no paywalls, ads, or popups.
- Enhanced controls to keep students safe: Schools own the accounts and exercise admin rights over them.
There are two ways you can access Adobe Express:
- Through a free Adobe Express for K–12 Education license that gives you access to Adobe Express Premium at no cost
