Customize Your Learning with Google NotebookLM

As a person who prefers to be moving, whether it’s hiking, biking, walking, baking, etc., it has been a challenge to sit and read the online articles for my graduate studies. And my eyes have also been strained from the extra screen time. However, I have been able to change up the format of my course materials ever since I learned about Google NotebookLM on Dr. Luke Hobson’s podcast.

Here are a few ways that this AI has transformed my learning experience:

• I can upload (or add a link) a research article into Google NotebookLM to create a podcast with two conversational-style hosts to listen to on a walk

• I can create a study guide

• I can access it with my budget-it is free

As an instructor, my students can benefit in the same ways. I can also use it to:

• Create assessment and knowledge check questions from the transcript

• Transform content into a learner’s preferred format
