The "Getting Started in Audio Editing - Audacity Basics" tutorial was very useful when I was developing my audio project. I had never created audio from scratch before my Multimedia for Education and Training course and this tutorial was easy to follow as an introduction to the program.
Prior to my Multimedia for Education and Training course, I had never designed a website from scratch using HTML and CSS. This codecademy tutorial was extremely helpful for starting with the basics and providing examples to practice with.
The free tutorial provided by w3schools.com was also a beneficial resource for me when learning how to use HTML in conjunction with Dreamweaver. I originally tried to jump right into Dreamweaver without any training, however, I found these tutorials valuable when it came to identifying and reducing html erorrs in Dreamweaver.
