Using OneNote: Best Way To Get Course Materials

Just a quick update that our class resource page has demo files as well as course materials in PDF format for each session of Windows Phone 7 Jump Start. But we also have all course materials nicely organized in OneNote notebooks for each session. By default, you have "read only" access to these online notebooks. However, anyone participating in Windows Phone 7 Jump Start will get read/write access simply by emailing MCTOneNote@hotmail.com from a "LiveID" (e.g., Hotmail or MSN email address).

You are also welcome to use the OneNote course materials “offline” (provided you ask for read/write access) if you have OneNote 2010 installed on your computer. For details on how to use OneNote or the OneNote Web App (plus info on how syncing works), see the FAQ in the “Start Here” section of the Session 1 online notebook. For direct access to each of the free online notebooks, click the below links:

• Session 1
• Session 2
• Session 3
• Session 4

So why use the OneNote Web App version? Two reasons:

1. It's free and easy to use. We've provided it here for those who might not have the OneNote desktop client.
2. It's a great way to meet and collaborate with fellow Windows Phone 7 developers. You, and any other WP7 developers asking for read/write access, can leave notes anywhere throughout these notebooks.
