Its can be used by teachers to capture ideas and information in different digital formats. OneNote has been reviewed for being “one killer app for education” in 2010, praised for its digital note taking features. OneNote lets you create notebooks for different topics, with each notebook featuring any number of sections and unlimited pages. Notes can be shared with other OneNote users in Teams.

The OneNote Class Notebook is an app that helps you set up OneNote in your class. This app will create a class notebook, which includes three types of sub-notebooks:
  • Student Notebooks — private notebooks that are shared between each teacher and their individual students. Teachers can access these notebooks at any time, but students cannot see other students’ notebooks.
  • Content Library — a notebook for teachers to share lesson resources. Teachers can add and edit its materials, but for pupils, the notebook is read-only.

Your class notebook makes it easier to collect homework, quizzes, exams and handouts. Students go to the content library to get their assignments.
