We’re excited to introduce OneNote as a new learning tool integration in Toddle! This update allows teachers and students to easily access their OneNote notebooks directly from within each class, making it easier to collaborate, organize lessons, and share content. Let’s take a closer look at how it works.

Admins can edit, remove, or add more integrations as needed. Once the setup is complete, teachers can start using OneNote within their classroom.
Using OneNote in the classroom
As an educator, you’ll be able to access the OneNote tab from the left panel within your class. Clicking this tab will open the OneNote class notebook page, where you can click ‘Sign in to OneNote’ and log in using your school’s Microsoft account to get started.
After signing in, you'll be taken to the OneNote interface. Here, you can collaborate with co-teachers, organize lessons, and share content with students, all within a single class notebook. You’ll also be able to manage settings such as student access and edit permissions.
💡Each class supports one shared notebook that is visible to all teachers and students added to the class. Permissions and collaboration settings are managed within the OneNote interface.
If no notebook has been created for the class yet, you can click on ‘create a class notebook’ to set up a new notebook and configure access settings for students and co-teachers.
If a notebook already exists, it will appear here, and you can click ‘Open your class notebook’ to continue working on it. The notebook will open in a new tab.
View at the students’ end
Students will see the OneNote tab in the left panel of their class.
Clicking on this tab will open a prompt to access the notebook. They’ll need to click ‘Open OneNote in a new tab’ to launch the notebook.
However, for students to access the notebook, you must manually add them using the ‘Add or remove students’ option in OneNote. Students must also log in using their school or organizational Microsoft account.
The notebook will open in a new browser tab, where students can view or interact with the content based on the permissions set by the teacher. For example, they may be able to edit their individual sections or collaborate in shared spaces.
If access hasn’t been granted, students will see an error message prompting them to contact their teacher.
That's all for now. We will continue to innovate and improve to make your Toddle experience better each day!
