Specifying coloured sections / tabs when setting up Class Notebooks
Good morning, We would love the following to be introduced please if possible: being able to specify the colour of each section for pupils when setting up Class Notebooks (not having to change these individually.) We use a different coloured exercise book for each subject, so it would be great to be able to specify that all English sections for the pupils would be (e.g. blue) when setting up the Class Notebook for the first time. Thank you.
assignment using classnotebook page not posting
I have create a simple class notebook page and attached it as a "reference" for my students to use. This has worked many, many times, and even in other teams for this same page. However, the assignment is not posting into the assignments menu. It is populating into the students notebooks however, and can be accessed that way. Unfortunately, without the assignment option, there is no easy way to track who is done, and to notify them that it's to be done at all 😞 When I go to view the assignment it's available to edit, delete, and update with all fields. But when waiting for the studnet status page all i get is: We're distributing your assignment to students now... Please check back soon. Other assignments not involving the class notebook post just fine, and it posts fine to a notebook in a different team 😕 edit: I think i've found the cause: In an effort to clean up my class notebook i deleted students confirmed to have left the district from my team, and from the class notebook. I believe the assignments process is trying to populate the notebook page into the missing student section groups, and is waiting to complete until that happens. Which it never will :(. I can currently find no way to fix this. I'd like to either clear the students off the assignment process from here out, or reset the notebook to populate with only current team members so the two things processes agree.SDS Provisioned Team stuck on "We are still setting up your Notebook"
We have several users with the message "We are still setting up your Notebook" it has been doing this for several days and will not create the Notebooks. What is the best way to get these Notebooks provisioned. They are also unable to upload to the file section. Please advise.
Guest access as 'teachers' in Teams
Here is the situation: I work in a school music department and I am in charge of a team of visiting music teachers. They are self employed and as a result they do not have school email addresses or access to the school IT systems i.e. Teams, Onedrive etc. I would like to create a Class Notebook to keep track of individual students. I know I can create a Team and invite guests and set this up as a staff notebook. Each music teacher would have their own section and they would have access to the collaboration space etc, but this would be staff only. Ideally, I would like each teacher to have access to a class notebook for their pupils. For practicalities, courtesy and data protection, I do not want one teacher to be be able to access notebooks of other pupils. Is this achievable through Teams/One Note Class Notebook? I suspect I can't do ALL of this within one Team/Class Notebook. One option I thought of is to create a separate team for each music teacher with their students and set up a class notebook that way. This would be set up with me as a teacher, a guest (visiting music teacher) and a collection of pupils. Would the 'guest' be able to function as a 'teacher' in this scenario? Ideally I would like the 'guest' to be able to add to the content library and to have a 'teacher only' section, but I don't know if this is possible with an external email address. Many thanks for your help to anyone who can assist!Staff Notebook to Class Notebook
Hello everyone. I wondered if anyone can give any advice / tips to the following. I teach in a department where I see 11 classes for only 1 hour per week. Many of the classes cover the same content, so for instance I have 5 x Year 9, 3 x Year 8 etc. I have created a staff notebook for all the lesson planning, and a central place staff in my department can contribute to plans, and ultimately a place we can all centrally find 'Pages' and 'Sections' we would then want students to have access too. The issue I am finding is that I create sections and pages in the content library of our departmental Staff notebook but cannot copy it to the content library of any of my Class Notebooks that the students are in, when I select the 'Copy to Content Library' from the Staff Notebook it simply doesn't show any notebooks where I can copy it to. I am using the Windows OneNote App. This is where I am stuck. As a work around I have been having to hack together copies in one of my Class Notebooks, where I can 'Copy to Content Library' of my other classes. However I am finding that classes are all starting to have slightly different versions from the planned departmental ones. Should I actually be looking at 'Copy Link to Section', and linking the Class Notebooks to the central Staff Notebooks as an almost 'live' version? Essentially how are you all delivering Sections and Pages created in Staff Notebook's to the students Class Notebook's? Thanks
Section Groups can only move, not copy
Why is this? When you right click on a section, you get 'Move or Copy' When you right click on a section group, you only get 'Move' We do our appraisals with Class Notebooks (because that's how it suits us). It adds hours to the set up because we have to manually copy master sections to each teacher, instead of being able to copy the whole section group.Moving a student from one class notebook to another
When you want to move a student from one class notebook to another, using right click>Move, how do you re assign permissions so that the student can access it properly in the other class? Or do you have to add them to another class, (with manage notebook> add student) then copy their existing stuff into the newly created section? Cheers JohnAdd Students isn't previewing a list if a group code was used
When you add students to a class notebook using a group code such as Subject-9ENG, you used to get a preview of the names in that group in the 'did we get it right?' window. Tried to do it just now and the preview isn't there anymore. This is a pain for teachers of core subjects like English, when there are 8 groups 9 ENG to choose from. Is this the result of an update, or a bug at my end?
How do we manage collaboration space permissions in notebooks created in Classroom?
Hi Great news about the ability to add permissions to collaboration spaces in class notebook: https://blogs.office.com/2017/04/19/onenote-class-notebook-updates-include-read-only-parent-or-guardian-access-and-collaboration-space-permissions/ One snag I have found is that I cannot use the method shown in the video for class notebooks that I have created in Classroom, as they are not saved in OneDrive. The option to change these settings do not exist when I try to manage the class notebook in Classroom itself. I am worried this problem will reoccur when class notebook is added to Teams, so hopefully somebody can shed light on this. Thanks
