Hideable pages allow you to create private content on your workspace - this is great if you are developing a syllabus or group project on the workspace, but aren't yet ready to share it with your class. Lockable pages let you place information on your workspace, and lock it from future edits. Use this to post assignments that you don't want your students to edit. How to Hide and Lock pages 1. Log in to your workspace at my.pbworks.com and chose techedmd.

Give Students Clear Instructions
Individual pages- Ask each student to create a page, posting information about their interests and what they hope to learn from the class. Be sure to comment on the pages, and engage them by referencing their personal interests in discussions. Use this as an easy icebreaker to have students get to know each other. Online spelling list – Create a page titled ‘Spelling’ and post your spelling list. Ask students to post the definition or upload a corresponding image. Class notes - Each week assign one student to write up the class notes, including important points and class discussion. Be sure to comment on the notes, and add additional insight from the lesson.
