Hi maricmileva​,  Not sure if you are just starting out with SL so I have added a few different links. I use storyline variables, and add javascript depending on needs. There are many more examples ranging from simple to complex - I suggest searching for "notebook" "journal" to see the range. I have seen examples that were created to allow the user to email their notes as well.

Inspiration:

 Storyline variables and javascript

 

You may find some examples here that offer tutorials and/or downloadable files so you can study the build.

    Hi Ange,

    Thank you for taking the time to respond. I'm a total beginner and I really need some help. Can you please share how you solved this?

    Most of the examples on the links you provided only contain Review links, without Storyline source file. For example, this is what I need 

    https://360.articulate.com/review/content/1737e3ac-dc59-44e0-a3f6-cb82ba6caa81/review

    but it doesn't contain source file.

    Hope you can help

      Hi maricmileva​
      The 2nd link in my first message titled: "Step by step..." goes through the build step-by-step with visuals, and offers a SL source file at the end that you can download. 

      I looked at your review link and the author provides a downloadable source file in the comments.

      To know more about how variables work I highly recommend taking a look at this link   Judy Nollett-The value of variables. it goes over types of variables,  includes screenshots, explains usage and recommends many other extremely useful links with explanations, examples, and helpful source file downloads.

        Thank you very much Ange.

        "Step by step" is instructed towards printing Notes, not persisting on each slide, that's why I wasn't able to find my answer there.

        I just saw that author attached the SL, which was 2 hours ago, that was after my post. Sorry, I just don't want to come up reckless and ungrateful for your time.

        I will check Matt's solution and let you if it worked.

        Thank you once again for your effort to explain this to me
