WATCH: All three 10-minute
Flash tutorials (you can watch them on different days, but do watch
them in order)
You must watch
these BEFORE you come to class today, or else you will be confused and lost.

Notes * * *
I will give you the same three-hour training that I have given in various newsrooms and at journalism conferences and workshops all over the U.S. You do not need to know anything about Flash EXCEPT what you will see in the three tutorials (see link above).
Your Textbook 3 assignment (due next week) requires you to coordinate IN ADVANCE with your team members! Make sure you are prepared!
There are no Flash project assignments.
