Directions for Online Learning

Welcome to Kyrene School District Digital Arts Online Learning opportunities for Digital Arts.

To get started, you will need to download the Adobe Creative Cloud. You and your parents/guardians should have received an email with instructions as to how to access the programs we use in school.

How to Use the Tutorials

First look for the image above on the first slide of each tutorial. If you see it then it has been updated to make it ready for online learning. If you don't see this image, there may be some gaps in understanding that need to be fixed for this type of learning in order to prevent any confusion. You can go ahead and use them, just understand that I am still working on resolving any issues, plus trying to create new tutorials at the same time.

If you are new to a program, like Adobe Illustrator, please start your learning with the beginning tutorials so you are able to complete more complicated projects later on. 

If you don't understand something, continue to the next couple of slides. It may make a difference in your understanding. If you still do not understand, please email your Digital Art/Multimedia teacher with the project you are working on and the slide number, so we can better help you. Some of the tutorials, especially in the more difficult level are being reworked to help you better understand. 

Some of the Photoshop lessons call for you to use a project file. In some cases, I have been able to include those files on the website. Files, such as .psd can be found in the online learning Google Classroom.
