What is OneNote? OneNote is a Microsoft application, similar to Word and PowerPoint. OneNote is a digital binder/notebook. Notebooks are organized into tabs and pages.

What makes a notebook, a “Class” Notebook? It is a teacher created and controlled notebook that the students have access to. There are two access permissions for students: view only and edit. Students can only edit in the “Collaboration Space.” Note: A “Class” Notebook can only be created in Office 365.
