Now with that being said, Tech Tips wants to highlight a powerful tool within Office 365 – OneNote. For those unfamiliar with OneNote, think of it as a digital 3-ring binder. Take notes, edit your notes, use Immersive Reader to listen to your notes, add in images and visual content, and more, across all of your courses, throughout your program. No more carrying around multiple paper notebooks and heavy binders or forgetting your notebook at home.

OneNote has so many great features built into it that we cannot possibly cover it all in one blog post. So, to start, we are going to look at the basics of OneNote: what is OneNote, creating notebooks, and taking notes.
