OneNote and Education Blog

Mike Tholfsen - Test Manager of the OneNote Team has kicked off his blog, OneNote and Education.

I am interested in how OneNote can help enhance the learning environment and I believe OneNote will be a primary tool for 21st century education. We also plan to have other guest bloggers from the OneNote team and from other Microsoft teams post education-related entries here. John Guin is still writing the OneNote Testing blog so even though I'm the test manager, this blog will be about OneNote and education.

Because there are so many things happening right now with OneNote and education, we wanted to start this blog to have a dialog with the education community, as well as share ideas, resources, and gather feedback from teachers, students and faculty. We also hope to point to examples of great things that educators and students are doing today with OneNote and education. In addition to K-12 and Higher Education, you can also expect to see topics on eLearning, training and on-boarding with OneNote. Many companies, including Microsoft, are delivering eLearning solutions using OneNote...

Mike's blog entry continues

OneNote strikes me as the main application in the Microsoft Office suite that seems to have been designed to really use ink, but I am sure that I have missed some great opportunities to better utilize it in my Education related activities.

I am looking forward to Mike's ongoing thoughts.

OneNote Calendar from Josh Einstein

Josh Einstein has been busy and has just created his OneNote Calendar.

Josh describes it this way.

It's an application that presents your OneNote pages in chronological order according to their last modified date on a calendar so that you can see your notes by when you wrote them, not where.
You can preview the note pages in the app or double click a calendar item to open it in OneNote.
Full screen mode will probably be pretty useful on origami devices.
If the resolution gets too constrained it turns off the preview pane by default.

And when I asked about the price, it's totally free.

I've installed this on the Asus R2H and the interface works really well for touch. The controls are intuitive. Things are working just as you hope they will.

Nice work Josh!
