Explore the structure of your Code.org notebook

Each notebook includes:

• A Content Library: read-only for students, this is where teachers can share course materials for the class to reference.

• A Collaboration Space: where teachers and students can work together, a Teacher-Only area that is just private to you.

• A private workspace for each student: where you can create sections for students to take notes, work on homework you assign, and more.

You also have the option of creating a Teacher-Only section group in your notebook, where you can keep notes and work on curriculum away from the eyes of your students. 

Copy content from your Teacher-Only section group into the Content Library:

1. Right-click a page or section.

2. Select  Move or Copy.

3. Select a destination in the notebook's  Content Library.

4. Select Copy. This will copy the content from your Teacher-Only section into the Content Library, where students will be able to access, but not edit, the material.  

Distribute pages to private student workspaces:

Homework, quizzes, and other content you want students to work on privately can be distributed to designated sections in their workspaces.

1. Navigate to the page in the Content Library that you'd like to distribute to your students.

2. Select the  Class Notebook  tab, then  Distribute Page.

3. Choose the section of your students' notebook you'd like the page copied to.
