This should help:

GnomeShell CheatSheet

Taken from that page, is a list of main key bindings:

  • Super key: Switch between overview and desktop
  • Alt+F1: Switch between overview and desktop
  • Alt+F2: Pop up command dialog
  • Super+F10: Open Application Menu
  • Alt+Tab: Pop up application switcher
  • Alt+Shift+Tab: Cycle in reverse direction in the application switcher
  • Alt+` key above Tab: Switch between windows of the same application in Alt+Tab
  • Ctrl+Alt+Tab: Pop up accessibility switcher
  • Ctrl+Shift+Alt+R: Start and end screencast recording

  • Ctrl+Alt+Up/Down arrow: Switch between workspaces

  • Ctrl+Alt+Shift+Up/Down arrow: Move the current window to a different workspace

  • F10: Toggle maximize
  • F11: Toggle full screen

The rest should be viewable under User Menu -> System Settings -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts

To view/change keyboard shortcuts, you must be aware that there are two places with registered keyboard shortcuts. You need to make changes in dconf for certain options, like moving between workspaces:

Whilst this may theoretically answer the question, it would be preferable to include the essential parts of the answer here, and provide the link for reference. – ObsessiveSSOℲ Jul 16 '12 at 18:45
