About My Notebooks
Students can create their own notebooks for note-taking and add notes from assignments, consolidating everything in one place. They can also organise their notebooks into categories, making it easy to locate and build upon their notes, which helps make revision more effective.
Create a Notebook
Open the left menu and select My Notebooks. To pin it to the menu, click Edit Shortcuts, select My Notebooks under Shortcuts available, and click Save.
Click Create Notebook to start a new notebook. You can also search by notebook title and filter by category in the notebook listing. For each notebook, click the overflow (3-dot) icon to move it to another category, uncategorise, or delete it.
Your notebooks will appear in List view by default. You can choose to view your notebooks in Card view by clicking on the note card icon.
Click Create Category to organise your notebooks. For each category, click the overflow (3-dot) icon to move, rename, or delete it.
After creating a new notebook, enter the title, upload an image as cover, and add a description. Click anywhere outside the component to auto-save. To make changes later, click the pencil icon.
Note: After organising your notes, you can create a contents page on the notebook cover by inserting links to other notebook pages in the description section.
Expand the drawer and click Add New Page to insert pages into the notebook. Navigate between pages using the bottom navigation bar.
Click the pencil icon to edit the page title, or use the overflow (3-dot) icon to add/move a page, add/remove colour tab, or delete the page.
For the colour tab, you can choose from three colours. Use them to organise your pages or spotlight certain pages—for example:
Blue: Key concepts, exam topics
Orange: Revision or review required
Pink: Connection between chapters, reflections
Click Add Note to add content to each page. Click the 3-dot icon to expand or collapse the Rich Text Editor and use its tools to insert content. Learn more about the Rich Text Editor About Rich Text Editor.

Unavailable Notes or Annotations
A placeholder will be displayed when notes or annotations become unavailable because you have lost access. This could be due to some of the following reasons:
The notes or annotations in the assignment or resource have been deleted by the owner.
The assignment or resource has been deleted or unpublished.
The assignment or resource has been paused by the teacher.
Note: You should check again before removing such notes or annotations from your notebook.
