Pearson Connexus allows you to add notes to courses, folders, and activities. After creating notes, you can return and review and edit them when necessary. These notes are intended for personal use and only you can access them.
Create notes
To create a note:
- Select the Activities tool from a course card on the Home Page.
- Select the folder or activity to which you'd like to add a note. If you want to create a course note, don't select a folder or activity.
- Select the Notes icon at the top of the left panel, then select the plus sign.
- Enter the note as plain text in the window that appears and select Save. Use hashtags with terms that you want to be easily searched. For example, you could use #taxonomy to be able to quickly find all notes related to that topic.
- The note is saved and attached to the specific activity, folder, or course where you created it.
- To access the note later, you can reopen this activity or select Go to all notes and find it.
- On the Go to all notes screen, notes are listed in chronological order. By default only notes from active courses are listed, but you can select View past courses to see notes from inactive courses.
Review, edit, and delete notes
To review notes:
- Select the Activities tool from a course card on the Home Page.
- Next, select the Notes icon. Any notes attached to the course, folder, or activity that was selected when you selected the Notes icon will display.
- Select Go to all notes to see all notes you've created.
- On the Go to all notes screen, notes are listed in chronological order.
- By default only notes from active courses are listed, but you can select View past courses to see notes from inactive courses.
- Use the Search window to find notes using specific words or hashtagged terms. (Hashtags make terms easily searched. For example, you could use #taxonomy to be able to quickly find all notes related to that topic.)
- Select a note to Edit or Delete. Be sure to Save changes.
