Microsoft OneNote

Spend Less Time Making Notes, and More Time Using Them

Get organised and stay organised with Microsoft Office OneNote 2003. Forget pencils and highlighter pens. Make your notes work for you by incorporating audio and video recordings, pictures, drawings, and text.

OneNote encourages students to develop their own visual or auditory learning styles by combining information-gathering formats on a single electronic page. For example, students can take notes on their Tablet PC on field trips, enrich their notes with a video recording from the trip, or add sketches, diagrams, or hand-written notes.

Teachers can turn digital notes into quality presentations with little effort. You can support group learning and encourage participation by inviting students to shared, interactive learning sessions. Here, several participants can add their questions or comments to a OneNote page at the same time.

Teachers can set class instructions and attach audio files for added explanation where it is needed, or add photos and images to illustrate difficult-to-understand points. OneNote also works with other Learning Suite applications, helping users generate creative Word documents and PowerPoint presentations.
