It might help to use the Find function to find the tutorial you are looking for. Press the Control (Ctrl, lower left of keyboard) button and the F key to bring up the Find dialog box. Enter the subject you want a tutorial about and select the "Find Next" button repeatedly. Your computer will find all instances of that word on this page.

These are PowerPoint presentations. You will need PowerPoint or the free PowerPoint Viewer which is packaged with each tutorial. To hear the audio, you will also need speakers or headphones on your computer.

Once within PowerPoint, advance each slide at your own pace by using the Page Up and Page Down buttons or the Up and Down Arrows. The Escape button will exit the tutorial.

Worksheets referred to are available under the main "Worksheets" link for your course's page.
