INTRODUCTION
Microsoft OneNote 2010 functions as a digital notebook, a single place to store and access information about school, work, and your personal life. It takes just a few minutes to create a new OneNote notebook with tabbed sections and pages. You can then add typed and handwritten notes, tables, files, links, pictures, screen clippings, audio, and video. OneNote offers powerful search capabilities to help you find filed information later. Plus, OneNote notebooks are easy to share and synchronize, facilitating collaboration with peers and coworkers. Using OneNote to gather, organize, find, and share information helps you stay on top of your tasks and responsibilities. Having a centralized resource for important data lets you use your time more efficiently and effectively, thereby increasing your productivity. OneNote also offers graphical templates and backgrounds for arranging ideas logically and making pages visually appealing, so note-taking is simpler and more enjoyable.

INTRODUCTION

Exercise 1 Create a Notebook and Add Sections

In completing the following exercises, keep in mind that OneNote saves automatically as you take notes and whenever you close a notebook. You do not save your work manually in OneNote. When you create a notebook in OneNote, it can be stored on your computer for personal use, or on the Web or a network for sharing. After a notebook is created, it appears in the Navigation Bar at the left of the screen. A new section is generated automatically. You can give the new section a meaningful name and add more sections. Tabs representing sections appear at the top of the screen. 1. To launch OneNote, select Start>All Programs>Microsoft Office>Microsoft OneNote 2010. 2. On the ribbon, select the File tab. Choose New. 3. Under New Notebook, in Step 1, select My Computer. In Step 2, key: School. (Ask your teacher if the name of your notebook should also include your first and last names.) In Step 3, click Browse, navigate to the location specified by your teacher, and click Select. Click Create Notebook. 4. If necessary, click the arrow at the left of the screen to expand the Navigation Bar. Locate the School notebook you just created. 5. Your screen should look similar to Figure 2.

EXERCISE 1

Exercise 2 Add Pages

When a new section is created in OneNote, an untitled page is generated automatically. You can give the new page a meaningful name and add more pages. Tabs representing pages appear in the Page Tabs at the right of the screen. Pages can have subpages, which will be discussed in a later exercise. 1. In your School notebook, click the Classes tab at the top of the screen or in the Navigation Bar. 2. If necessary, click the arrow at the right of the screen to expand the Page Tabs. 3. To rename the page, at the blinking cursor, key: Class Schedule and press Enter. 4. To create a new page, in the Page Tabs, click New Page. At the blinking cursor, key: English and press

Enter

5. Repeat Step 4 to create the following six additional pages: U.S. History, Algebra II, Chemistry, French II, Computer Science, and Newspaper.

Exercise 3 Type a Note and Format Text

Notes in OneNote are contained in frames. After a page is named, a note frame with a blinking cursor appears automatically below the title. You can start a new note by clicking anywhere on a page and typing. The basic tools for formatting text in OneNote are similar to those found in other Microsoft applications. 1. In your School notebook, click the Classes tab. In the Page Tabs, click the Class Schedule page. 2. In the note frame, at the blinking cursor, key: First Semester:. 3. Select the text First Semester: by clicking and dragging over it. 4. On the ribbon, on the Home tab, click the Font Size drop-down arrow and select 14. Click Bold. Click the Font Color drop-down arrow and select Dark Blue. Deselect the text.

Exercise 7 Tag a Note

When you work with a large notebook or with several notebooks, tags provide an option for locating information. Any piece of content can be tagged. For example, you might tag notes that are to-do items, contacts, or Web sites to visit. Tagged content appears with a special symbol or formatting indicating the specific tag that has been applied. OneNote tags can be searched and sorted. 1. In your School notebook, on the Classes tab, on the Day 1 subpage, select Meter: The rhythm of lines or verses in a poem. 2. Click the Home tab. Click the Tags drop-down arrow to display the various default tags available. Select Definition. The text has now been tagged as a definition. 3. Repeat Step 2 to tag the other three definitions. 4.

Before printing content from OneNote, it is important to check the Print Preview to make sure the desired content will print correctly on the selected paper size, with the chosen orientation. You can print the current section, page, or page group (a page and its subpages). Because OneNote pages can be of infinite width, you would typically select to scale the content to fit the paper width. OneNote offers several footer choices when printing, including no footer. 1. In your School notebook, in the Classes section, on any page, click the File tab. Click Print. 2. Click Print Preview. In the Print Preview and Settings dialog box, click the Print range dropdown arrow and select Current Section. 3. Make sure the Scale content to paper width box is checked. 4.
