As an Educational Supervisor focusing on Library Development and Reading Promotion, I face a constant challenge: Getting students (and sometimes teachers!) to engage with long texts.
Enter NotebookLM.
I recently experimented with the "Audio Overview" feature, and I am blown away. Here is how Iโm planning to use it in our schools in Phayao:
Instant Podcasts: I uploaded a dry academic paper on "Active Learning." NotebookLM turned it into an engaging 10-minute banter between two AI hosts. Suddenly, the content became accessible and fun to listen to while driving or commuting.
Language Learning: Itโs a fantastic tool for Thai students to practice English listening skills using content they are already studying in class.
Trustworthy AI: Unlike other chatbots, NotebookLM is "grounded" in my specific documents. I know the answers are coming from the source I provided.
For me, this isn't just a summary tool; it's a multimedia content creator.
Question for the community: Have you tried the Audio Overview feature yet? How are you using it to spark curiosity in your classrooms?
