Just Announced on June 11th: Copilot Notebooks is now rolling out to all Microsoft 365 Education licenses
Every student knows the feeling: the test is coming, the materials are everywhere— and the hardest part is not finding information, it is knowing where to start. There is a PDF from the teacher. Slides from last week. A Word document with notes. Each piece has value. But studying means turning all of it into something usable: what to review first, what connects together, what still feels fuzzy, and what to practice learning. That is why we are excited to share two updates for education.
First, Copilot Notebooks is now rolling out to Copilot Chat users, available with Microsoft 365 Education licenses. FREE for ALL! Copilot Notebooks are AI-powered workspaces for a subject or group project built on reference materials—bringing together all context behind a topic in one place for you or your study group and Copilot to collaborate on. This addresses one of the top asks we have heard from Microsoft 365 Education customers: bring the power of Copilot Notebooks to the education licenses schools already use. This education expansion builds on the broader Copilot Notebooks announcement that brings Notebooks to all education and enterprise Copilot Chat users, including new ways to work with your own materials in Notebooks with mind maps, Study Guides, and coming soon – the ability to create Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, and PowerPoint presentations.
Copilot Notebooks are available in the Microsoft 365 Copilot web and desktop versions for Education users. Expect them to be available in Education tenants in the next two weeks. They will be available in OneNote in the weeks to follow.
Second, Copilot Notebook Study Guide is now generally available both for education and enterprise users. Study Guide is an AI-powered feature in Notebooks that turns the learning materials you provide into a complete, interactive study companion. Organized, editable, grounded in your references. Study Guide takes the materials learners already have and helps turn them into a collection of organized study topics and activities of your choice.
Drop in PDFs, Word documents, PowerPoint presentations, or Excel files. Study Guide reads across those references, identifies the key ideas, and creates a multi-page study guide inside the notebook.
