A Note About Versions of Illustrator and Photoshop: We know teachers have different versions of AI and PS. We worked hard to make sure students using versions CS3 through CS5 could use the lessons. If you are an experienced with AI and PS and are using CC, you will be able to guide the students through any changes in where tools are located in the new versions. If you are using CS3 - CS5, the screenshots will be accurate for you.

CS3 Tutorials for Technology Students - Level 1 is an "eworkbook" of ten individual Adobe Illustrator tutorials I created for complete beginners. The goal was to make Adobe Illustrator easy and fun to learn for students. The activities are created as "worksheets" rather than long chapters often found in a textbook and students generally have an easy time with them.

As a full-time teacher (with a web and logo design business on the side), I know students sometimes need step-by-step assistance. With these short and simple instructions that have abundant screenshots and "Click Here" guidance, your students can get started using the basic drawing tools right away in Lesson 1. It's a great supplement to your technology curriculum.

Many teachers ask, "Will your lesson work with CS4 or CS5?" These lessons just teach the basic tools in Illustrator. Here is a comparison chart of features. Higher versions have additional tools and enhancements so you shouldn't have a problem. But feel free to try out the sample lessons to make sure they work for you.

Help your students get Adobe Illustrator certification. Our tutorials cover many foundation skills that are tested on the Adobe Illustrator certification exam. Here is the list of Adobe Illustrator certification exam skills that students need to know.

The Level 1 CS3 eworkbook covers these Illustrator skills:

How do I get the eworkbook?

I will personally email you the PDF eworkbook along with any source files required. I will make every attempt to do so within 24 hours of your order. You will only need the free Adobe Acrobat Reader to open the eworkbook. No additional software is necessary. I have researched this a lot and my emailing the eworkbook is the cheapest, fastest, and easiest way for me to get you the files while maintaining some security on my end. If you really want a CD though, I will be happy to send you one but I can only do that if you have a PC and you are willing to pay shipping costs.

Can I Trust You Will Email It?

I have put a lot of time and effort into this eworkbook and I am proud of it. I want people to buy it, so any dishonesty on my part would not be good for my business. Also, I am going to be creating Levels 2 and 3 for Illustrator as well as a Photoshop series, so I want customers to come back.

What if I want a refund?

Well, I have researched this a lot too and due to the digital nature of the eworkbook, there's no way I can verify that any files I have sent will be destroyed on your end, so I will not be offering refunds. I have tried to show you exactly what you will be getting by posting two sample lessons, the Table of Contents, and a gallery showing the activities in each lesson. If you still have more questions, just contact me.

Single User or Classroom Edition?

Single User Edition: You may use the eworkbook on 1 computer only. Printing capability will be disabled.

Classroom Edition: You may use the activities with your students in your classes only. You may make the eworkbook accessible on a network and also print out lessons for your students only. Please don't share them with colleagues.

Site License: For district-wide use, please contact me for site license information.

Sales Tax: If you are in Texas, I must charge you sales tax.  If you are a tax exempt organization in Texas, just contact me and I will invoice you without the tax.

 

Contact: Please contact me if you have any questions or need more information. Also, if you have found the eworkbook helpful, drop me a line if you can. Thanks!
