If you are teaching a class, you may be interested in AI tools that can help students master academic content for your courses. NotebookLM is an AI-powered app available to all George Fox students and employees.
Unlike general tools such as ChatGPT or Gemini (which is also free with George Fox accounts), NotebookLM’s interactions are based solely on the material you or your students upload. Users can add almost unlimited digital content to a NotebookLM notebook, including readings, notes, audio recordings, slides, and specific web pages.
Key Features and Pedagogical Relevance
For more information, see this overview from Google or the Complete How-To Guide to NotebookLM from another source. Note that features are frequently updated, so these resources may be slightly out of date but remain helpful.
A caveat: If students find that creating their own learning materials is a more effective way to learn, encourage them to stick with that method!
Contact Rick Muthiah at rmuthiah@georgefox.edu to be added as a viewer to a sample NotebookLM notebook.
