Restoring deleted Class Notebook Pages and Sections
According to Microsoft guidance, deleted pages can be restored from the authors OneDrive: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/recover-deleted-class-notebook-files-from-the-onedrive-recycle-bin-b4b4aaa6-b03f-4808-8da2-51680ad53448. In our experience, this does not work, the deleted pages do not go into either the teacher or the students OneDrive and there is nothing in the OneNote/Notebook recycle bin. By default History is turned off on Class Notebooks and even when manually enabled, it does not track pages or sections deleted by students in the web client. Deleted content disappears into a blackhole. This seems to be worsened by the fact that a Class Notebook is a consolidation of content from several places. Some content is in the underlying Teams SharePoint stored in Site Contents, other content is in Site Assets and the actual students work hidden in their OneDrive!? This makes impossible to restore from backup (unless anyone on here knows a way). We have Barracuda Cloud-Cloud backup for our MS365 but there is no way it can cope with restoring this. Why on earth Microsoft see this as acceptable is beyond me? All the content needs to be in one place so that elements or the whole thing can be easily restored. There is a user voice around this. Please add to it if you have experienced this issue: https://onenote.uservoice.com/forums/362784-education/suggestions/41535760-ability-to-easily-restore-student-deleted-pages-an Thanks
OneNote Future?
MS has been putting out a lot of new apps, but OneNote seems to be left out to pasture. Are there any development roadmaps for OneNote? There are some other notetaking apps in the market: Notion, Obsidian, etc. If there are any MS OneNote devs on this thread, I'd be interesting if I should cut bait or keep my notes in OneNote.
Distributed content moving or disappearing- Class Notebook
Hello, we have several teachers who are distributing content to students and some of the class will have issues. This is happening across the district with various teachers. The teachers make the document part of the background, but when students click on it, it disappears or moves the cursor to the far bottom of the page, etc. This is happening enough where some teachers are using other resources other than Class Notebook. Anyone else seen this? I thought maybe an extension on the student Chromebooks or network connectivity during the sync? Any other ideas?
Sharing a MS Teams Class Notebook from the Team it was originally created and linked in to a second
I have had a request from a member of staff who has a Microsoft Teams 'class' site with a Class Notebook setup that her students used in the previous academic year) who now wants to share the same Classnote to a different Teams site (within the same university and school). From what I can see online this is not possible, I can connect to the same Class Notebook within the same Team site but in a different channel but not between two different Team sites. Is this right or am I missing something? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Re-creating Student Class Notebook sections
Hi all, So, a while back I deleted some student sections from a Teams based Class Notebook as I didn't think they'd need access to it. Now I'm not sure how to re-add them into the Class Notebook with the sharing permissions that come with a Private Student-Tutor section. The Recycle Bin was emptied at some point. Any tips welcome.
