Study & research for the AI era.
Note-taking, summarisation, source vetting, exam prep, and second-brain workflows — for school, self-study, or work research. Learn faster, retain more, cite well.
What you’ll learn
AI is the best tutor in the world. It’s also the best source of confidently-wrong nonsense. The course teaches you to extract the first while filtering the second.
- AI as your tutor. Socratic prompting, recursive explanation. Real understanding, not fake confidence.
- NotebookLM mastery. Sources, briefings, audio overviews, mind maps.
- Reading with AI. PDFs, papers, books — summarised, cross-referenced, queried.
- Source vetting. Catching hallucinations, checking citations, verifying claims.
- Exam & test prep. Active recall, spaced repetition, AI-generated mocks.
- Research synthesis. From a topic to a literature review in a day.
Tools covered
NotebookLM, Claude, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Elicit, Glasp, Obsidian, Granola
