My Semester OS | B Optimal

What This Is

Notebook + Organizer

A structured, ready-to-deploy organizational system that lives in your institution's existing Microsoft 365 environment — no external apps, no new platforms, no IT burden.

5-Subject Digital Notebook + Organizer

A structured notebook with sections for each course, plus a Welcome guide, Supports & Resources section, and customization tips. Notetaking templates with embedded prompts duplicate with just one click.

Reduces Cognitive Load & Supports Organization

A color-coding scheme connects courses, templates, and folders. Five course folders — each with My Assignments and Resources subfolders — are color-matched to notebook sections for easy navigation.

Syncs with OneDrive, Works Across Devices

Designed to sync seamlessly with Microsoft OneDrive, so notes and files are accessible from any device — laptop, tablet, or phone. Compatible with both free and Microsoft 365 versions of OneNote.
