Move students between Class Notebooks in OneNote

Use these steps to move a student and their private work from one notebook to another. For example, if a student is switching from one class period to another, moving them to a different Class Notebook will not delete their work.

Add the student to their new notebook

  1. Sign in to Microsoft365.com with the log-in provided by your school.
     

    Notes: 

    • If you don't see the Class Notebook app right away, open the App launcher  App launcher button to find it.

    • If your Class Notebook was created in Microsoft Teams, you will need to manage class membership directly in Teams.

  2. Select Class Notebook Add/Remove students. This will launch the Class Notebook Wizard. 

  3. Select the notebook you're adding the student to.

  4. Type the student’s name, then select Next > Update.

    Type in students' names and select Next.

Remove the student from their old class

  1. While Class Notebook Wizard is still open, select Back to Home.

  2. Select Add/Remove students.

  3. Select the notebook you’re removing the student from.

  4. Select the student’s name, then select Remove > Next >Update.

    Removed students' names are crossed off of the Existing student list with options to Undo and Remove next to all names.

Move the student’s private work from the previous notebook to the new notebook

  1. Open OneNote and open both Class Notebooks: the Class Notebook your student is currently in, and the Class Notebook you are moving them to.

  2. Right click on each section of the student’s private notebook that you need to move to your other class. For example: Homework, Quizzes, or Handouts.

  3. Select Move or copy, then select the student’s name in the destination notebook. Select Move. Repeat this step for all the work you need to move.

Removing a student from a Class Notebook doesn't delete their private notebook from your class, even after you’ve moved work. To delete their work from their old class, right-click the student’s name and select Delete.
