How-To Guides for Digital Projects

Most of these resources were designed for my students to use as part of the digital and/or remix projects I often assign in my classes. They are typically geared more towards beginners than experienced professionals. These are also constantly evolving documents. Each semester, I collect new resources and suggestions from my students. If you have tips of your own you’d like to add, please let me know. I’m always looking for new resources and ideas to share.
