The key idea
Set a learning boundary before opening a tool: what are you trying to understand, what material may you use, and what work must be your own?
A practical example
Ask for a hint on a problem, try the next step yourself, and use feedback to locate the specific part of the notes you need to revisit.
Keep the result checkable
Policies differ by institution, instructor, assignment, age, and data. Ask before uploading restricted material and disclose tool use when required.
