Toggle between the Teacher's notebook and the Student's notebook to ensure the spaces are set-up properly. If they are, click Create.

Note: After creating the OneNote Class Notebook your students will not have immediate access to the notebook. Students will have to click on the Class Notebook link in your Blackboard course in order to complete the process of adding the notebook to their OneDrive.
