Fillable PDF in OneNote
macdonaldk- not sure if this is exactly what you want -- but what I've done with students in the past (in MS WORD - but the process is the same in OneNote - I just tried it):
- Get a screen shot of the worksheet you want to use.
- Save it as an image (.jpg/.png -- .png has the highest resolution but will make your file bigger)
- INSERT it as a picture on your OneNote page.
- Right click on the image and "Set as background" --
- Students can write all over it and nothing moves.
BAM!
jhubbard thank you . I literally just discovered this option after I posted it in this forum. I'm guessing, then, that if I do that (setting to background" prior to sending to my students that nothing will change when it goes to them.
As an aside to your steps you don't have to do a screenshot. You should be able to "print" to OneNote in your printer window. This works in any program (word, adobe, etc.).
- Choose print.
- In the "select printers" window choose "Send to OneNote..."
- OneNote should open and ask you where you want to place it (a subject area or specific blank sheet).
*the above only works on a Windows computer. On a Mac, you have to convert the file to a pdf and then you can insert it into OneNote using the >insert>Insert file as a printout.
Thanks again for your help on the disappearing sheets. Take care.
