meetings today vs next — definition (students)

students who need a definition you can reuse for meetings without vaporware.

Students guide to meetings sources: a definition you can reuse. Honest today vs next. Free YouTube tools where they apply.

Use a live tool when the source is YouTube. Otherwise type. Workspace is optional after you approve.

If the meeting was recorded and posted on YouTube with captions, write a meeting-style recap from that video. Live Zoom/Meet capture and a joining bot are not shipped. This page is a definition you can reuse for students. Write what this source type is — and is not. A teammate will not confuse ingest with typing.

No meeting bot. No teaser calendar sync. Live notes stay in your own doc. You need a page you can review, not a second media file.

NoteLM Workspace — turn YouTube and docs into a compounding notebook you approve. We do not mark unbuilt ingest as ready, and we do not describe media-file download pipelines.
