WeBWorK

Setting up a WeBWorK system

The basic requirements for setting up WeBWorK is a unix system running a webserver, perl, TeX, latex2html, etc. Probably your system already has many of these installed. You will need a system administrator to do some of the set up and it would be a good idea for him or her to be involved from the beginning.


We can offer participants in this course the option of setting up a small (say 100 or fewer students) course on our server at Rochester. This is a convenient way to get started for many people.


WeBWorK is supported by an NSF DUE CCLI grant. Institutions interested in adopting WeBWorK are eligible to apply for support under the CCLI Adaptation and Implementation (A&I) track. Information is available at http://www.ehr.nsf.gov/EHR/DUE/programs/ccli/ccli.htm We would be happy to support you in such proposals. Several colleges and universities have received support under this program to adapt and implement WeBWorK.
