in Default OneNote Templates are Lacking on Note Talkers
For myself, I have each class in a section rather than a folder with various sections. It may well be the volume for myself is lower than your classes as I take much of my school work through online classes. Living in a rural location, I don't have access to high-speed and driving to school (no buses) means taking 2.5 hours out of my day, let alone the class.
As a result, I download class lectures, handouts, assignment sheets, etc. into a folder inside My Documents and only keep my personal notes inside OneNote 2003. Yes, this is a heavy download but I can make the drive into town, locate a hot spot, download the entire course work, then drive home. It is more efficient than attending lectures for me.
However, once I can use the new release, I may well be dropping files into OneNote 2007 and using that as an extended filing system. I like the thought of linking a Windows media audio file to OneNote comments and may well change my method to suit that requirement.
I have not downloaded the new Office Beta because:
1 - Low-speed download access
2 - Some classwork may potentially be incompatible with the new release. Why should I blow a class just to work on the latest and greatest?
3 - Some of my clients (I have a business on the side) require consistent and proven technology. I can not afford the potential of a failure for them and, while I love being cutting edge, I must balance my client's needs with my love of technology. And my clients pay my schooling.
