Microsoft+OneNote




 * Microsoft OneNote** is part of all Microsoft Office installations and, for reasons unknown, is Microsoft's best kept secret. It is an amazing application that is best understood as an electronic binder. Each OneNote Notebook file consists of tabs which each contain an infinite number of pages. On each page users can add text, pictures, audio, video, files, emails, etc. One of the most powerful features of OneNote is the ability to SHARE. When you save your OneNote Notebooks in **OneDrive for Business**, you can "Share" with colleagues and/or students to provide them with either "Viewership" rights to access your work or "Editing" rights to co-author together.

***NEW APRIL 2015*** Here's how to from the Windows Store in Windows 8.1. This is especially helpful for auto-inserting photos directly from your tablet camera onto a OneNote page.

Microsoft has some great **online resources** for learning about OneNote.

It includes resources and interactive guides on getting started, enhancing productivity, staying organized, delivering curriculum, and using the OneNote Class Notebook Creator, a tool that helps you easily create a OneNote Notebook that has shared sections between the teacher and each individual student.

For a wide array of **OneNote features for beginners and advanced users**, check out a OneNote Online Shared Notebook created by Jennifer Malone. Note: when you view a OneNote Notebook that has been shared for mass public viewership online (like Jennifer's), you can't "Open in OneNote" to view it in the full OneNote software. For that reason, some of the arrows may not make sense because they should point to items in the OneNote software.
