I'm a... Microsoft program that allows users to organize content (text and various forms of media) in a flexible way; unlike Word, you can type anywhere in your work area. I am organized like a virtual binder. Information is saved in pages, which can be organized by section or notebook. .OneNote users can also share notebooks and collaborate in real time. **You can also use OneNote Classroom Creator to create digital notebooks for the class.
