Lynda.com Videos
Part of the way you can learn in this class is by watching Lynda.com videos. See Moodle for login instructions.
To control the speed on the quicktime movies you can press alt + click (Windows) or control + click (Mac) on the line between the arrows on the bottom right of the movie window. Dragging the control that pops up to the right will speed up the playback and pulling it back slightly after speeding it up will allow you to slow down playback. The controls are very very sensitive, so it takes some finesse and practice.
To understand lynda.com, I suggest you go watch some of the introductory videos for the titles listed below.
