A connected learning workflow
The sidebar is a map of where your work belongs. Choose a workspace first, then move between its conversations, learning activities, and reusable sources. Your account supplies the companions and preferences you can bring into that work.
Two scopes, five shelves
Section titled “Two scopes, five shelves”| Shelf | Scope | What you use it for |
|---|---|---|
| Chat | Workspace | Conversations, a task board, and your Learning notebook |
| Learning | Workspace | Books, Mastery Paths, Reading collections, and Practice |
| Resources | Workspace | Chat history, Favorites, question bank, learning journal, and knowledge bases |
| Partners | Account | Persistent companions, their instructions, resource access, and channels |
| Personalization | Account | Personas, skills, connected agents, MCP, CLI apps, and memory controls |
Calendar is an exception within Home: it offers an account-wide view across workspaces. Calendar explains how to read the source workspace of an event. A Partner also has an explicit working context: its account-level identity does not mean every conversation can read every workspace.
1. Give a project its own workspace
Section titled “1. Give a project its own workspace”Create or select a workspace for “Signals and sampling.” Keep its lecture notes and exercises separate from another project such as “Academic writing.” Before adding material or starting a learning activity, check the active workspace. Switching changes the first three shelves’ contents, while your Partner and Personalization libraries remain available. See scope and switching.
2. Bring in sources, then ask a focused question
Section titled “2. Bring in sources, then ask a focused question”Add reusable material to Knowledge Center, or open a specific document in Reading when you want to work beside the source. In Home, attach the relevant context and ask something concrete: “Explain why low sampling rates can make two different signals look identical; cite this primer.”
A stored asset is not automatically included in every model request. Attach sources or select the supported learning context explicitly. Check cited passages before building on an answer.
3. Separate evidence from your own understanding
Section titled “3. Separate evidence from your own understanding”Save useful original passages to Favorites. Then write your interpretation in a Learning notebook, inserting references where useful. The notebook is where you develop an explanation; Favorites preserves the material you may want to reuse. Reopen the source when a claim needs checking, and use Dito beside a paragraph when you need help improving it.
4. Choose the learning activity that fits
Section titled “4. Choose the learning activity that fits”- Use Books for a structured sequence of pages and interactive blocks.
- Use Mastery Path for a goal broken into topics and guided study.
- Use Reading for questions tied to a document or media timestamp.
- Use Practice to answer, inspect feedback, and revisit weak areas.
These are different ways to work with a topic, not steps you must complete in order. Start with one and use the supported capture or attachment controls to connect it to the next.
5. Reuse assistance without mixing projects
Section titled “5. Reuse assistance without mixing projects”Choose a persona that asks you to explain your reasoning. Add a relevant skill when you need a repeatable method. Connect an external agent for consultation, or configure a Partner with a particular role and resource scope. Those account assets remain available in another workspace, while each workspace keeps its own learning records and materials.
Return to the work
Section titled “Return to the work”Use Home’s Task Board for next actions, Resources for saved evidence and history, and the Learning list to reopen an activity. You do not need to repeat setup or recreate a Partner whenever you switch subjects.
