Learning how to Author WeBWorK problems

  • See Problem Authoring Background Information and sample problems If you're just starting out.
  • See index of problem techniques section If you need help with one particular construct.
  • See PGML (Template 4) to learn techniques which simplify formatting the appearance of the questions.
  • See MathObjects for more information on authoring problems using MathObjects.
  • See PGLabs to try out code fragments on line -- including code fragments containing MathObjects. This is a quick way to learn the fine points of the MathObject syntax.
