This next series of blogs I like to document my learning process on Lynda.com and learning to use iMovie. The hardest part as a student was logging in correctly to Lynda.com. I first tried to login personally and found out I would have to pay up to $300 to get the training. I then remembered an e-mail we received with our passcode. After retrieve the passcode I tried entering it through the regular login, that of course did not work. I returned to the e-mail and found the link to Lynda.com, entered my passcode and registered that way. Once I was finally registered, and able to login to Lynda.com correctly I was ready to start my learning.
My first step, was that I typed in iMovie in the search window. Linda.com gave me several course options to choose from. I of course picked the wrong one and started learning that one. The information was useful but was not what I needed for my class.
Once I started with the correct videos/course, taking the class was easy. There is one other thing to watch out for while working with Lynda.com is you must watch each video one at a time to get credit. Do not select “ play chapter” because it will only give you credit for the first video, not the rest. You will then have to watch all the other ones again to get credit to get the certificate. Good luck with Lynda.com, once you’re registered you’ll have a great time. Watch for my next blogs where I make a movie and hopefully pass iMovie essentials on Lynda.com.
