A word about the guides:  
The guides below are PowerPoint Slide-shows. They have been produced by the TAS 2010 First Semester Communications Technology Class.
They might take a few moments to download before they open.
The Slide-shows are interactive and user-controlled. Many of the slides have animation built into the presentation. Be patient when opening a slide, don't click too quickly or too often as you might miss some information.
We recommend viewing each Slide-show more than once.
