Back in 2016 I was introduced to OneNote. I have since used it to transform the way I work. I may blog about other uses for OneNote in a separate blog post but this one is all about how I have used OneNote to create a digital notebook for Higher Maths.

BONUS: This OneNote also includes information about my Cognitive Load Theory Presentation, that has most recently been presented to Scottish Borders Maths Teachers during their in service in November 2018.

OneNote is accessed through Glow as part of Office 365, though the software can also be downloaded for free from https://www.onenote.com.

Glow users in all Local Authorities in Scotland can download the full version of Microsoft Office on up to 5 personal devices for free – speak to your school’s Glow person for more information.

What I have done when creating the OneNote is I have made extensive use of the HSN materials (available at http://www.hsn.uk.net/higher-maths/notes/). I have also uploaded some resources from my department’s course folder, though these are quite outdated. My aim in sharing this has been to encourage teachers across Scotland to pull together and create a digital bank of resources for Higher Maths all in one place.

The OneNote includes instructions to guide teachers through creating a separate OneNote Notebook for their class, which they can share with their pupils in order to allow them to access the content at home or in class.

OneNote can be used as a digital planner. There is an example of this in the shared OneNote.
