000 PBWorks Help: Table of Contents


Getting Started

 

Most of your assignments will be done in an online application called a wiki (also known as a "workspace"), a type of website that allows for collaborative editing of its content.  For those of you not familiar with wikis, this format may seem a little daunting.  Here are some tips to help you.
