1. What topic did you learn?​

2. Which features did you explore?​

3. How did that help you in learning the content?

# data[].attributes.body
The sources provided to Notebook LM provided a structured form of reasoning, that allowed it to create a guide on how to write prompts to structure lesson plans. Did not have time however, to try the more interesting audio feature.

# data[].attributes.body
I like the source tags where I can validate and read more on the article that provides the response.

# data[].attributes.body
You can have a conversation with NotebookLM based on the sources you trust.

# data[].attributes.body
The text to speech feature stood out as it would be the easier for me to learn as an auditory learner. Being able to hear information allows me to absorb information better

# data[].attributes.body
1. That an email was sent in May to share about this tool LOL =p- That I can upload my own sources

2. A one-stop hub for multimodal learning to support and scaffold learning for individuals

# data[].attributes.body
1. This is like a folder that stores, and pull in sources that I've chosen, and is able to make sense of the info.

2. Like the mindmap feature as it provides synthesis of info and relationships across concepts

# data[].attributes.body
1. Notebook LM has a similar user interface like Pair chat and ChatGPT, and allows the user to include sources like articles and research papers.

2. I found the study guide and mind map useful as it caters to different learning styles.

# data[].attributes.body
There are too many things on the user interface. Can be kept simple. For instance removing the rightmost column.

# data[].attributes.body
NotebookLM allows users to upload and integrate various types of content.

NotebookLM can generate podcast-style audio summaries of documents, enabling users to listen to engaging discussions about their sources.

I found the above useful for TnL.

# data[].attributes.body
1. What did you find out about the tool?
It's pretty similar to other generative AI tools out there / used in MOE, and students would require a lot of support to navigate.

2. Which features did you find useful?
The addition of resources to generate responses based on is pretty useful. Also, the generation of notes would be helpful to summarise discussions and review learning.

# data[].attributes.body
Activity 1: 1) That it works similarly with Perplexity Pro. That various articles can be curated to facilitate our research process, 2) I think it necessitates a different way of approaching things. To benefit from the materials, students need to craft good questions so that NotebookLM can sieve out the salient points for them.

# data[].attributes.body
A great feature is the ability to compile all the resources and generate the output in more engaging formats, e.g. audiobook, study guides, etc. It can also generate output in different languages.

However the limitation would be the data privacy and security concerns as it has a cloud-based infra

# data[].attributes.body
I think the mindmap is something that not a lot of other LLMs have, which really shows you clearly how ideas branch from ideas and shows the very strong connection between ideas.

# data[].attributes.body
Actually i am trying out set the language output to Chinese, and the outcome is good. I tried all the features, including the generation of audio, it does well too.

# data[].attributes.body
1. How to teach kids about money

2. Timeline

3. It provided a systematic overview of how I should teach my children about money according to age-appropriate stages

# data[].attributes.body
1. What topic did you learn?

The art of dating - on charm and connection.

2. Which features did you explore?

The generative chat and notes.

3. How did that help you in learning the content?

The FAQs were especially helpful in reinforcing certain ideas and in learning content based on what learner is curious about (narrows down content based on what learner wants to know). Good if these notes can be downloaded as documents or presentation slides.

# data[].attributes.body
1. I learnt how to bake a basque cheesecake.

2. I discovered the sources, and explored generating a recipe to make a basque cheesecake in simple language.

3. The generated output was clear and structured, and it was able to respond to my queries and offer logical responses.

# data[].attributes.body
I tried learning about plumbing and how to resolve issues related to plumbing. But because the topic was so broad and requires a lot of source materials, it takes time for the human to slowly add to the source base for it to be rich enough to pull out relevant info.

The output still seems to be too long and not as easy to digest for a new topic.

# data[].attributes.body
1. I learnt about urban sketching tips for beginners and urban sketchers scene in Singapore.

2. I explored "discover" (so many kinds hahahha- blogs, youtubes, workshop links, news, reddit) generating of mind-maps, chat functions.)

3. I feel that starting with what interest me, and being able to zoom in easily helps me!

# data[].attributes.body
1. Baking different types of cakes

2. Upload different types of sources (youtube and link), chat features, and generation of quiz

3. I am able to ask questions that can be inferred across the recipes, for instance which cakes are cheaper to make or which cakes are sour. The quiz drills into questions to test my knowledge, for instance "What unique characteristic of the "EASY and HEALTHY Chocolate CAKE" sets it apart from more traditional cake recipes?"

# data[].attributes.body
1. How to organise a car meet

2. Chat + Notes + FAQ + Timeline

3. Timeline made it clear what actions I needed to take to successfully organise a meet (or try to at least)

# data[].attributes.body
1. minecraft + history of the world across Chinese and Western civilisations

2. Mindmap, audio

3. Good overview, appreciate how it's not dependent on one source (vs googling and reading one article)

# data[].attributes.body
1. How to play heavy metal guitar 2. Audio coach for metal guitar techniques 3. yes it guided me on the way to think about guitar hammer ons, the feel and intuition i need to developed - demonstrates

Using Notebook LM to for lesson planning

# data[].attributes.body
Add in student journals/reflections as a source -> Ask it to create a timeline for the lesson plan + Quiz for students -> Take the results of the quiz and add bit back into Notebook LM as a source (Repeat the cycle)

# data[].attributes.body
1. Lesson Prep

Curate notes for students

set differentiated questions

make difficult concepts and info bite size and digestible

design bite size learning resources in different modes/ contexts for application of learning

2. Encourage students to explore adjacent topics and carry out self directed learning

3. Self teach, peer teach,

# data[].attributes.body
1. When & how: can be used for in-class note-taking, revision before assessment, formative assessment (AFL/SDL), sharing and comparing of notes, individualised study notes based on goals and plans (rubrics can be uploaded)

2. Pedagogical value: study notes designed based on students' needs, readiness, capacity, learning style, and goals (using interactive podcast function and connecting questions with sources to evaluate questions and responses)

# data[].attributes.body
I learnt some very valuable perspectives about user testing, considerations and feasibility concerns that separate tooling from product builds for teachers.

# data[].attributes.body
I didn't know that it can help to suggest sources, and incorporate Youtube videos. So that was helpful!

# data[].attributes.body
The possibilities of notebooklm

# data[].attributes.body
I wished there was a sharing on how notebookLM was used in a real-world example case study or based on trainer's personal experience.

# data[].attributes.body
I think learning a new AI tool to help me with reading materials and learning was definitely the biggest take away. After seeing the mindmap, I'm very confident that this tool can help a lot with absorbing and understanding knowledge

# data[].attributes.body
Notebook LM and what it can do.

# data[].attributes.body
Thanks Kuang Wen for the interactive and engaging session, learnt a lot about NotebookLM and got to think deeply about its pedagogical value in the various possible use cases. Definitely need to go back to think about how this could fall within our workstreams and how it can advance the EdTech Masterplan 2030.

# data[].attributes.body
how to use notebooklm for transformational purposes. thank you for your time

# data[].attributes.body
1. NotebookLM is very useful for generating materials from a fixed source material, but other use cases where real time data or information is required, other LLMs would be more useful.

2. Combination of LLMs and notebooklm could be extremely powerful in helping to create targeted content

# data[].attributes.body
NotebookLM is good for exploration and linkages of concepts. Allows for sharing of tool, with sources sanitised and prepped for sharing.

# data[].attributes.body
I see the potential of Notebook LM in enhancing and personalising the learning experience for students, and as a possible PD resource for teachers.

# data[].attributes.body
It's good to get different perspectives beyond personnel within MOE on how LM can be used. It's good to explore the functions of NotebookLM and brainstorm its feasibilities in classroom T&L.

# data[].attributes.body
I learnt that there is actually a tool dedicated to trying to build connection of ideas across sources

# data[].attributes.body
The hands-on exploration time and brainstorming with table mates allowed me to gain more understanding of NotebookLM.

# data[].attributes.body
Thinking prompts (by you =)) on thinking beyond the typical lesson prep, on how we can better connect learning

# data[].attributes.body
Appreciate the thoughtfulness behind the facilitation. Can see the effort to put us through the design thinking experience and exploration to better understand notebooklm. Thanks for doing what you do!

# data[].attributes.body
I have learnt the features of NotebookLM. Thanks for the session

# data[].attributes.body
Appreciate the time taken for exploration of the tool, and sharing by Kuang Wen on his and his teams uses. Appreciate the initiative by GovTech + MDDI to do this, so that we can have space & time to do this amidst the busy work.

# data[].attributes.body
The workshop is well planned, thank you.

# data[].attributes.body
1) I understand a new tool, NotebookLM and the creative method on how Kuang Wen deliver the class (activities). The No, but and Yes, and, and the ideation with the notepads and discussion.

2) Nope.

# data[].attributes.body
Thanks Kuang Wen. Very interesting sharing and helped us think about feasibilities of AI in the classroom.
