I'm not teaching now,but if I were teaching a video editing I would steer my students to www.creativecow.net
Creative Cow is a multimedia tutorial website that gives students and hobbyists alike lessons and tips on using several multimedia programs such as Adobe Premiere,
Flash and Final Cut Pro. The way the site is presented and used fits nicely with the ARCS Model..
The layout of the site grabs your attention by listing several tutorials and how they can improve your current skills.
Once a tutorial is started by a learner,relevance occurs when prior learning with a given software must be recalled to complete a tutorial.
Once a tutorial is completed successfully the learner's confidence and motivation to learn more goes up. If the tutorial proves to be a challenge the learner can return to it until they get it right.
When tutorials are completed and applied in the learner's own work..Their satisfaction with learning the new skills will be higher.
