NotebookLM is the handy study aid you never knew you needed. Add links to websites and videos, text, and documents to create study guides, timelines, an audio podcast, and an AI-generated video summarizing the information provided. Follow the prompts to add one or more items to your notebook. When ready, use the "Notebook Guide" to create study guides, FAQs, a table of contents, a timeline, or a briefing document. Once you create documents, you can select them to gather and develop additional resources, such as an outline, or ask NotebookLM to suggest related ideas. The audio summary option creates a two-person conversation in the form of a podcast to discuss the information, offering customization options that include the ability to focus the discussion on a specific topic or audience. The materials are shareable with a custom link, and you can share audio podcasts and videos with a separate link from the notebook link.

Udio uses AI to create original music with vocals and instrumentation from text prompts. After creating a free account, users can enter prompts describing the song's topic, genre, mood, style, lyrics, or length. An optional AI prompt-enhancement feature can help generate more detailed and creative results. Once songs are generated, users can remix, extend, edit, and refine their music before downloading or sharing it by URL. Udio also provides options to export audio and create simple music videos. The free plan currently includes a limited number of daily and monthly credits for song generation, while paid plans unlock additional features and higher usage limits.

In the Classroom
Use this song generator to engage students in any subject. For example, ask Udio to create lyrics and music to coincide with upcoming holidays and classroom events. Try asking Udio to make an upbeat song about your field trip to the zoo or a jazz song that includes information about New Orleans, and play the song for students as a schema activator for your lesson. Create songs with specific vocabulary terms for students to use as a learning aid or produce songs that assist multilingual learners in learning English. App smash Udio with MagicSchool's Song Generator, reviewed here by asking MagicSchool to create a song using any topic and details, then copy the lyrics into Udio to turn the lyrics into any genre desired. Ask students to use Udio to make a song that accompanies a research project or multimedia presentation, then include the song with other presentation elements built into a simple website created with edublogs, reviewed here or another free website builder like Straw Page, reviewed here.Edge Features:
