Learning Resources

Since all my lessons are online and on the DVD you got from the workshop you can immediately start using these lessons with your students or share them with the faculty at our school/district. I encourage you to personally take on projects that allow you to practice these techniques. Continue to read some of the excellent books that cover these amazing software applications, explore the many online resources and learn from your students as they push the limits. I have included a list of my favorite online learning resources.
When you attend my workshop I give you a DVD and handouts that contain a bunch of sample files that you are welcome to use while you practice the techniques in the workshop. I encourage you to start with these files and then experiment with the same techniques on your own video files, web pages or Flash files. Please copy the files from the disk to your computer. If you are checking this workshop out online, the video files are too large but I will try to post some of the Dreamweaver and Flash templates.

Software Adobe Flash Player: The tutorials in this workshop require Adobe Flash player be installed on your computer. If you don't have the latest version of Flash you can download it at http://www.adobe.com/.
