Use this tutorial to create a Class OneNote, a OneNote that allows you to easily distribute your class's notes and content to students. 

Note

It's a good idea to create your next years/terms/semesters Class OneNote in advance, allowing you to have a stress-free start of term.

Instructions

  2. Open 'Class Notebook' under Apps.
  3. Click 'Create a class notebook'

  4. Add a NoteBook Name via the Naming Convention {class code} - {unit/subject} - {time period}. For example:  10SSC-Medieval History-2018 Term 1.

    Check with your Curriculum Leader that your naming convention is consistent with your department


  5. Note the different sections that are created within a Class OneNote, click 'Next'.
  6. Add any other teachers that will need access to your Class OneNote. By making someone a 'teacher' they will now become 'cocreators' of the OneNote, having special permissions and access to a separate section hidden from students. 

  7. Add your student's emails, via exported student emails from SEQTA Markbook ensure you wait for the students email to be replaced by their names, then click 'Next'.
