[ PRACTICAL SCHOOL GUIDE ]
Learning from local school documents
Use a small approved collection for questions that need local context.
The idea
Use a small approved collection for questions that need local context.
Classroom example
A student searches the course reading list and syllabus for a deadline, then opens the cited document instead of relying on the summary alone.

Use this checklist for learning from local school documents.
- Choose an owned collection
- Remove private or outdated files
- Test permissions and citations
Use the handout as the reference
A school's own lesson material can use definitions or notation that differ from a general web answer. Tell Nexus which material you are working from and ask it to connect the explanation to the relevant passage.
Try it with your class
- Check the document title and version.
- Upload or select the approved source.
- Ask a question tied to a section or example.
- Open the source when a response cites it.
Review the result
If the document does not contain the answer, the system should not pretend it does. Distinguish an explanation based on the handout from general background knowledge.
