Course overview
Good research is not a longer answer; it is a visible chain from question to source to conclusion. In this lab, Gemini helps with exploration while NotebookLM becomes the evidence desk for a defined source pack.
What you will build
You will assemble a small research notebook from documents, web pages, audio, or video, then produce a concise briefing with inline evidence and an explicit uncertainty log. You will also learn where source-grounding ends and independent verification begins.
Inside the lab
- Write a research question narrow enough to answer well.
- Curate sources instead of dumping in everything you find.
- Use notebook citations to inspect the passage behind a claim.
- Compare findings, contradictions, and missing evidence.
- Create a written and audio study aid without confusing polish for proof.
Best for: students, analysts, founders, and curious professionals. Google account, region, language, and Workspace plan can affect availability.
