Teaching with PB Works
Need a tool that allows you and your students to collaborate and create web pages in a common space? PBworks allows instructors and students to create and edit web pages that track the history of each author’s contribution and track the changes that are made along the way. It enables students and instructors to create public or private web projects for presentation and education. Insert text, images, hyperlinks, video and tables. Attach files, widgets and tags. PBworks allows you and your students to quickly and easily construct engaging class web pages for free!
Getting Started
Basic PBWorks sites with limited customization are free to anyone, but to use advanced features, such as unlimited storage, file backups, page and folder security, MS Word imports, and more, you will need to obtain access to our UNT campus subscription (available free of charge to UNT faculty). To create a new site or upgrade an existing site to the campus subscription, please send an email to vistafac@unt.edu or contact your CLEAR instructional consultant.
