 • What is "chunkalized learning"?
|
|
After showing you the Liquid Edition interface and capture from tape process, the course will show you the very first step in editing the project, then stop with a small beep and wait while you switch to Liquid Edition and perform that same step yourself. After completing that step, you'll return to the PowerStart course and play the next chunk. Step by step, PowerStart will show not only what to do but explain why- showing tons of tips, tricks and timesavers along the way.

|
• Why does PowerStart look so much better than DVDs or VHS tapes? |
|
We use proprietary production methods to deliver crisp, sharp, quality visuals to your computer screen from CD-ROM, unlike fuzzy, headache-causing VHS tapes and DVDs.
|
|
• Why is PowerStart so much more effective than other learning methods or the manual? |
|
To master any software, you must do, not just watch or read. PowerStart is the best kind of hands-on training there is- guided by expert instructors, you build the tutorial project yourself. There are always opportunities to take time and experiment so you are actually comprehending each tool and each action you're executing.
And, unlike other products that cover tools and concepts in a jumbled, unrelated order, each and every concept and action presented on this CD is in the context of completing a real world project. So, when working on your own projects, you'll immediately be able to put what you've learned to work.

|
• How can Liquid Edition PowerStart work for both power users and beginners?
|
|
The answer lies within our revolutionary "chunkalized" learning environment, and our self-paced teaching paradigm and technique. If you're new to editing, you'll appreciate the mouse commands and the simple, easy-to-follow teaching method that does not move on until you're ready. Unlike a class, you can repeat each chunk or section as many times as you'd like, and pause the training at any time to experiment with a feature, process or technique. If you're a power user or professional editors, Liquid Edition PowerStart will quickly get you up and running with the keyboard shortcuts also shown, and the ability to move ahead quickly without having to wait for other, slower students or the instructor.

|
• What if I have a question while in the course?
|
|
Every tutorial screen has an "Ask a Question" button that will take you directly to a special forum here on LiquidEditionPlanet.com, so you can post your questions for DVcreators.net instructors, Pinnacle staff and other users to answer.
