View this tutorial on how to use this resource: https://www.lynda.com/Business-tutorials/How-use-Lynda-com/77683-2.html?org=fullsail.edu. https://one.fullsail.edu/support - [Instructor] Hello and welcome to how to use lynda.com. Our goal is to help you learn the skills that you need to achieve your full potential. Whether you're an individual wanting to learn new skills, or part of an organization or school that is offering or assigning new content to watch, you can learn it here on lynda.com. Choose from any of our thousands of courses via individual instructional videos available on topics covering business, technology, and creative fields. Learn from our hundreds of authors who are recognized industry experts, and enjoy the flexibility to view lynda.com content anytime, anywhere with our offline viewing and mobile apps for iOS, Android, Windows, Roku, and Apple TV. Throughout this introductory course, I, and other staff authors, will take a look at how you can get the most out of your membership. We'll start with a brief overview of the layout of the homepage, and how to navigate to courses and content you want to watch. We'll also cover the ins and outs of our custom video player, including how to control video playback options like speed controls, closed captioning, and the size of the video on your screen. We'll also look at some advanced features that we offer, including transcripts, how to bookmark videos, create playlists, take notes, use practice environments, manage your profile and interests to make it easier to find content and courses that are relevant to you. Finally we'll walk you through some troubleshooting options and where to go if you have any questions you'd like to get answers to, or comments that you'd like to pass on to us. If you're not already a member of our site, that's no problem. You can still watch this entire course completely for free to understand how lynda.com can help serve your learning goals. We hope that you'll enjoy this course, and that you'll come back to it often as we continue to update our site and provide new and useful features. So, let's get started.   - [Instructor] Lynda.com has thousands of courses in our online library. That's a lot of content to sift through, and we want to be able to connect you with the kind of content that interests you. To do that, we have a quick orientation that will help our relevance engines make sure that you're getting visibility and to the kind of content that makes sense for you. These are called my goals, and when you login to lynda.com for the first time, during the setup of your account, you'll see this screen asking you to add one or more skills that interest you. - [Instructor] In this video, we'll take a look at the layout of the homepage. What you'll see on your lynda.com homepage will vary depending on your type of subscription. In this training we'll be looking at two different types of accounts. An individual premium account which is what we're seeing here, and an account that you would have if you were logged in through your organization. We'll get to that one in just a sec. On the homepage there are two main columns. The right column and the left column. On the right, this column is all about discovery and browsing content. It's access to all the latest and greatest of lynda.com. At the top here, you'll see popular learning paths, weekly series, and documentaries. You can see all the contents related to any of these categories by first selecting it and then clicking See All. This will take you to a page that you can scroll and see all of the content, in this example, related to documentaries. To get back to the homepage, just click the logo up at the top. In this next section below, we have the newest releases, organized by subject, and the most popular, which is organized by all, skills you're learning, and by subjects. Now as you scroll down the page, you'll see that those subjects appear here at the top which makes it helpful for if you want to jump to, say marketing. It'll jump you to the popular marketing courses. You also have this More option here on the right which gives you some additional subjects. Now if you're logged in through your organization, there are a couple of additions you'll have on the homepage. You'll have this Recommended area, and Popular at Your Organization, which is just like what it sounds. It shows what people are watching most at your organization. We'll go back to the premium view. One more thing to note is that we want to make sure we're recommending the kind of content that interests you. So, if you're finding some courses in this feed here that absolutely do not interest you or relate to you, and you don't want to see them populate here anymore, you can click on this Not interested thumbs down icon, and that will remove it from the feed. Now that doesn't mean that it'll remove that course from the library. You can still search for it at a later time if you need to, and you can still watch that course but it'll no longer show up in this feed here on your homepage. Moving onto the left column, this section is all about you and navigating your content. If this is the first time you're signing in and you haven't watched anything yet, these pods will be empty, and as you start to watch content they will populate with the material that you've been watching. So in this first one we have Continue Watching, which shows the last three courses that you were most recently watching, and you can click on any one of these thumbnails to jump directly back to that course. Below that we have My Playlists. Playlists are groups of courses you can compile to create your own kind of playlists that you can watch in sequence. We'll go over creating playlists a little later. Now if you're logged in through your organization, one additional thing you'll see under My Playlists are Assigned Playlists. These are curated lists of content that your account administrator can create and recommend or assign for you. If you have any assigned playlists these will show up right here. We'll go back to the premium view, and this applies for all accounts. Up at the top of the page is this navigation bar. This will remain stationary no matter where you scroll on the page. You can always get back to the homepage quickly by pressing this logo up at the top. You can browse content by hovering your mouse over the Library button. This shows you categories of content, based on subjects, topics, software, and learning paths. Clicking directly on the Library button will take you to a list of all subjects, and they're listed in alphabetical order, so you can jump to one letter more quickly by clicking the letter up here in this bar. Again to get back to the homepage, just click the logo up at the top. Here is a search field where you can find any content you want by typing in keywords or phrases. Then finally on the right is the profile menu. Hovering your mouse over it will drop-down options to go to your profile, Playlists, History, My Goals, Recommended, Certificates, Bookmarks, and the option to Log out. Now that we're more familiar with the layout of the homepage, throughout the rest of the course, we'll go over these areas in more detail.

behance Bēhance is an online platform where you can showcase and discover creative work. Similar to a social networking website, Bēhance enables you to connect with other artists and to share and explore creative work through virtual portfolios. Learn more about your Bēhance account by viewing this tutorial: https://www.lynda.com/Behance-tutorials/Up-Running-Behance/143876-2.html?org=fullsail.edu. - [Tony] Hello there, my name is Tony Harmer. I'm an illustrator, designer, and author and my design and illustration career started out with me lugging around a portfolio from agency to agency and client to client, as was the way back then. And I can tell you it was time-consuming hard work. Fortunately, for the modern world and marketplace, you are largely spared the activity so you can concentrate on what you do best, as you now have an always-on and everywhere place for your work to represent you in the form of Behance. And I would like to welcome you to this intro course that will have you up and running in next to no time. It doesn't matter what creative discipline your background is in or aligned to, Behance is both a network and services that are there for you to show off your work and talents. In this course, I'll be showing you all the basics right from setting up your account and linking your other social presences, finding inspiration, making connections, and even searching jobs through to establishing and maintaining your portfolio. You'll learn how to add your work and your works in progress to Behance and then use the network from both the desktop and from your mobile devices. I'm told that Behance is the number one way that creative talent is scoped out in some countries, and that probably means it's likely to be that way in your country soon if it's not already. So let's spend a short while together and turn that into an investment in promoting yourself and your work with Behance. - [Lecturer] There are a number of social networks around today and most people are aware of at least three. Let's start with Facebook, the network that you use primarily to stay connected to your friends and family. It is the home of many of your favorite cat memes and videos, as well as being the number one place to keep up with what everyone else is having for dinner and where they are currently on vacation. Okay, so, all joking aside, there are serious business aspects to Facebook and it is a useful place to have a presence on professionally, but I tend to think of it more of a component part, maybe of what marketing people would perhaps call a funnel, as far as creative professionals are concerned. LinkedIn is often thought of as the business professional's Facebook equivalent and there's a lot of new stuff popping up there all the time that would support that, but maybe more pure business in domain than the creative business specifically. Then of course we have Twitter, broadly categorized by intent, maybe more for what we're thinking at a given time. And again, another component funnel part of social networking as we'll cover later on in the course. And then we have good old Instagram, which is perhaps the preferred way of many of today's people, because you can communicate visually and very, very quickly. I'm a big fan of Instagram, it does remove certain linguistic barriers and it is a very engaging way to outline a story, elevator pitch style though that may be, and it's just so easy to skim through the content without having to read lots of things while you're just browsing. So those and a few others I can think of are out there and they have their roles to play as you'll learn later on in the course, but we're maybe missing something here. None of those are dedicated to doing nothing other than showcasing creative work from almost all of the creative disciplines, and that's where Behance comes out on top, it gives you a dedicated place to showcase, discover, and network in the fields of graphic design, photography, illustration, interaction design, motion, architecture, product design, fashion, advertising, fine arts, crafts, game design, and sound. In each of those categories you can drill down into specific disciplines from typography to toy design, leather craft to UX in Motion to make up. So there's a place for you and your work that has been made just for you.   - [Instructor] Here we are at the Behance website, behance.net. Now, the Behance networking services are owned by Adobe and your Behance account will be connected directly to your Adobe ID. If you already have one of those, possibly the very same one you used to log in to Creative Cloud, you can jump straight up to the Sign In link and sign in there, and then relax for another minute or two while we get everybody else sorted out. Don't disappear though if it's your first time here, as we are going to cover some other important stuff before this movie is done. Okay, otherwise, if you're not a Creative Cloud member or you've never signed up for any other Adobe services, that's what we're going to cover right now. So, you should find a nice big Sign Up button at the top of the screen, so go ahead and click that, and then you'll be taken to this form to get your Adobe ID and then, by extension, your Behance account. So, I'm going to sign in here as Tony and then Harmer like so. And now I'm going to enter my email. So, this is a different one to one I usually use. This one doesn't have an ID attached to it. And then I need to create a password and you can see here that there are requirements for the level of password. You can't just type in Blueberry, for example, that would be really, really silly, and could potentially compromise you and/or the service. So, you've got to include at least one number or symbol, include both upper and lowercase latin characters, and it must be at least eight characters long. Now, there are different password generators and services like 1Password, which is an excellent password manager, will generate them for you. Even some browsers like Safari will do that. But, here, for example, I'm just going to type one of my own here and hopefully that will be sufficient. Is that eight characters long? And you can see that once you've satisfied that condition, you can move on. I am in the United Kingdom, which it detected when I came here anyway. Then, once again, we're going to just hide this bit from you. You don't really need to know when I was born particularly. You then get to opt-in here to their mailing list, so you can stay informed about their products and services. Do that if you want to. And you have to confirm that you've read and agreed to the Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy. So, once you're through all of that, you have the delights of the Behance onboarding experience, which is a series of short steps that get you some stuff to look at. You can filter that by clicking any of these things. So, for example, I'm interested in graphic design, so that will follow a graphic design library for me. I'm also very interested in illustration and I'm interested, also, in product design and advertising, and, let's just say, crafts, just for now. And if you're not, you can just click away from that and it turns off. Once you've done that, you can click and it will show you your custom feed. You get a welcoming message like so and you can opt-in or out of the email system for Behance. So, as you can see here, if you want to get inspriation and updates via email. I get quite enough email already, so I'm just going to say No Thanks to that one, but, of course, you may choose to do something different. And that's it, you are in. What you need to do now is to set up your profile and that's exactly what we're going to cover in the next movie. - [Instructor] In this movie we're going to start building our profiles here in Behance. Now although I'm continuing on from the previous movie that doesn't really matter as far as you're concerned and your view may be slightly different to mine, because you may well have chosen different things and of course time moves on so there's new work arriving by the second. I should imagine on Behance there's certainly a lot of content everyday. Towards the top right of the screen if we start at the extreme right here where have the Adobe logo is just to the left of that that's you. So what we're going to do here is set our profile. So we'll come down to Behance profile in that list and this is where the action happens. So over on the left hand side what I'm going to do is I'm going to click, of course, to add myself a picture, just here. So if I clicked edit first, the small pencil, and now I'll upload an image. If I just go to my downloads folder here I've got my headshot here, which I've used for Max this year and I'm just going to crop this one like so. There we are, that's done, lovely. And I'll choose crop and save and then that gets added like so. My name's already here because I put that in. In my occupation I'm going to put author and consultant because that's kind of what I do these days mainly and in the company I'll put lynda.com and Adobe where I also work, just there, and my location is the United Kingdom and in the city I'll put London, just there. Perfect. Okay, I actually live just a little way outside London, but that will do for this and I'll put my website URL in as TonyHarmer.expert like so. Now if I was associated with a team then I could type that teams name into this box here, but we'll be covering that in a later movie, and then a small bit of information about me and I've got some information there that I already have in my bio. Then I can add some work experience if I choose to do that and then add more custom sections. You'll see this from the left hand side also. So you could do that from there. If I add a custom section here I might do lynda.com courses and then a small description of that. I am the author of and so on. That at the basic level is it. If I just go back to my profile it saved automatically. So you'll see that information. In fact if I just click here on my picture of myself there's the information I've just added and you can see the information there on the left hand side and when I signed up for Behance. In the next movie we're going to look at why your profile is important.

gotmeeting - [Corena] Hi, I'm Corena Bahr, and this is GoToMeeting 2016 Essential Training. I've been working with, and training people on GoToMeeting for more than 10 years. It is my favorite tool to use to present demos, collaborate with colleagues, deliver small group training, and meet with clients. In this training, I'll show you everything you need to know to get started using GoToMeeting. We'll look at how to schedule a meeting, how to start and manage it, and we'll see how easy it is to initiate a meeting on the fly. We'll also get familiar with the organizer control panel, the ins and outs of managing audio, how to share your screen or webcam, how to pass the presenter role over to someone else in your meeting, and we'll get to know the tools you can use to create interaction. If you're just looking to learn how to attend a GoToMeeting, I'll show you the three easy steps to join a meeting and help you understand how audio works. Once you see how easy it is to host your own interactive meetings, you'll wonder why you haven't done this earlier. Okay, let's get started! - [Narrator] As you're getting started with this training, you'll be happy to know there are no prerequisites. This course is designed for anyone who wants to learn to schedule, host, and attend meetings using the GoToMeeeting software. Before we continue, there are a few housekeeping items I'd like to cover. There are multiple ways to host or join a GoTo meeting. In this course, I'll show you how to schedule, manage, and start meetings from a desktop app, and from your GoToMeeting online account. I won't be talking about hosting from the GoToMeeting web app or using mobile apps and I'm going to using a PC, but for MAC users, please know that most of the functionality is the same. The appearance of the desktop app may be a little different and some options may not be in the Control Panel, but may instead be located in the top menu. You can visit the GoToMeeting support page for more information. - [female instructor] The My Meetings Page on your GoToMeeting account is the portal for scheduling and managing meetings from any browser. This is helpful if, say you're in a conference room and using a computer that is not yours and you need to access one of your meetings to start it. Let me take you on a little tour of what you can do from this page. I've logged in to my account and as you can see I'm on my default My Meetings Page. And I'll just start at the top. You've got a button up here to schedule a meeting. Then you have a button where you can start a meeting on-the-fly. And if you want to join another GoToMeeting you can enter the meeting code here and join it that way. Down below, I have a list of the meetings that I have scheduled. And I have some helpful information that's really easy to see like when my meeting starts and the name of the meeting. And over on the right, I have some quick-start icons that allow me to start the meeting, delete the meeting, edit it and also invite people. And lastly, I have a tab here to look at my meeting history. So, if you ever find yourself at a computer that doesn't have the GoToMeeting desktop app and you need to schedule or manage a meeting just log in to your account and do it from here. - [Announcer] One of the nice things about managing meetings through your GoToMeeting web account is that you can access it from anywhere, even from a beach chair in the Cayman Islands. Let's schedule our first meeting from the My Meetings page. It's fast and simple as there are only three requirements, naming the meeting, selecting the date and time, and reviewing audio preferences. I've logged in to my GoToMeeting account, and right here on the My Meetings page I'll click Schedule a meeting. The Schedule a meeting box opens and I'll give my meeting a name. I like to be fairly descriptive in my meeting titles, so that my attendees know what we're going to focus on in the meeting. Now by default, GoToMeeting will treat this as a one-time meeting, and I'll set the date and enter the time, and then set the duration. Now let's say I wanted to turn this meeting into a monthly event. In the drop down arrow, I'll select Occurs multiple times, and that will turn this meeting into a recurring one. Now notice that the date and time options disappeared. Because what you're going to be doing is setting those date and times into something more like a calendar tool, but setting this meeting as a recurring one will keep it active and that unique meeting link that's assigned to this meeting will be open for as long as you need it until you delete it. The next step is to review your audio, and you actually have several different options with GoToMeeting. GoToMeeting provides a built-in audio option and you can give your attendees a choice in how they join audio. They can join through voice over ip through their microphone and speakers, or by dialing in to a toll-based number over the phone. And I typically leave these options checked. Now you can see that under long distance it says United States, and that means that by default, GoToMeeting is providing toll-based numbers within the U.S. If I have attendees that are outside of the U.S., I'll click edit, and select the appropriate countries. And that will provide in-country toll-based numbers for those countries. Another option is to use your own conferencing service. So if you have a third-party service you'll click that option there, and then enter the appropriate dial-in information for your conferencing service. There are a couple of caveats to know if you are using your own conferencing service, and the first one is you won't be able to record audio if you want to record your meeting. The second thing to know is that you won't be able to manage audio through the GoToMeeting control panel. And the last option is GoToMeeting does offer an audio plan called OpenVoice if you want to provide toll-free numbers for your meeting. So if you have that option enabled you'll see it listed here as well. You'll also see some tabs here to add a co-organizer, that's for corporate accounts and to set a password. I'll talk about those more in-depth in separate videos. But for now, I'll click save, and I'm ready to invite people to my meeting, which I'll talk about in the next video. If we go back to the My Meetings page, we're all set because the meeting is listed here, and I did it all from my beach chair. - [Corena] After scheduling a meeting, the next important step, of course, is to invite people so that they have the meeting information, and the link to join. In this video, let's look at the most common way to do this, which is adding the meeting information to a calendar invite. In the previous video, I showed you how to schedule a meeting. I added the meeting title, set it to recur, and reviewed my audio choices. So now I'll click save, and the invite people window will come up. And you can see that the meeting information is included here. There's the unique meeting link to join, the audio information, and if this is your first time using GoToMeeting, you can actually run a test by clicking this link. So, you can test your audio, you can test your internet connection. And what I'm gonna do now is click copy, and it will copy this information to my clipboard. Then I'll go to my calendar invite, which I've already set up here. And I happen to be using Outlook, and I've included the participant, added a subject, and set the date and time. And then I'll paste that meeting information right here in my calendar invite. So this is ready to go, and I'll click send. And send it out to that person. Now let's take a look at how to invite people after you've already scheduled a meeting. I'll locate my meeting, and then go to the invite icon. And that'll open up this invite people page. I can copy the information, and then paste that into a calendar invite. So that's it. Really, you can copy and paste the meeting info into any online messaging system, but using a calendar tool is the most common way, and now you know how to do it. - [Instructor] Have you ever scheduled a meeting and then realized you're going to be late? Or even worse, you've double-booked yourself and can't even attend your own meeting. Well, if you're on a GoToMeeting corporate account you can add a co-organizer to your meeting, someone who can fill in for you so you don't have to cancel and try to reschedule everyone. Let me show you how to do that through your GoToMeeting web account. I'm logged into my GoToMeeting account and I'll look for the meeting where I want to add a co-organizer. I'll choose this one here, Q3 Sales Update. I'll go over to the Edit icon and click on it. I'll click on the Co-organizers tab and I'd like my colleague, Harold, to actually start and manage the meeting in my place. I'll start typing his name here in the field and you can see that it's come up. I'll select it and all I have to do at this point is click Save and Harold will actually receive an invitation letting him know that he is the organizer for this meeting. Harold now has the same administrative rights that I do for this meeting. So he can start it in my place, he can manage it, and he can also invite people if he'd like to. So, I don't need to invite any additional people and I'll skip this section here. And do know that if you are in a meeting you can always promote someone in the meeting to be an organizer on the fly. Alright, so now we've got Harold to cover for us and start our meeting. And if we look at his My Meetings page, we can see that he can start the meeting and manage it in my place. This is a very helpful feature for GoToMeeting corporate accounts. - [Voiceover] If you're like me, and in and out of GoToMeetings, you might consider installing the GoToMeeting desktop app. Let me take you on a brief tour of the desktop app, so you can see the functions for meetings that are just a click away. The first thing you'll want to do is actually install the desktop app. And to do that, you'll sign into your GoToMeeting account, scroll down to the bottom, and click this link here, "Download GoToMeeting" It'll take you through a brief install, this window will appear and ask you for a meeting ID. Which actually you can ignore, and just click the X on the box. So, back here on my desktop, there are two ways I can access the app. The first way is by clicking on the GoToMeeting desktop shortcut. The other option is to go down to your system tray, and locate the GoToMeeting orange flower. Right click, to access the functions. So, let me start at the top. The first thing you can do is schedule a "Meet Now". Or a meeting on the fly. To schedule future meetings, you'll click on "Schedule a Meeting". To edit and manage your meetings, you'll click on "My Meetings". And if you wanted to access another GoToMeeting you can click the "Join" button. "Help" will take you to the online GoToMeeting help files. If you record your meetings, you can click "Convert Recordings" to convert the recordings into a couple of different file formats so that others can view them. Next, you have "preferences" and this is where you can set settings like how GoToMeetings starts when you log into your computer, setting your e-mail and password, and setting some preferences for how you experience your GoToMeetings. The "About" function will give you the information about GoToMeeting, including the version, and this is helpful if you ever contact the GoToMeeting support, they might ask you for the version that is downloaded onto your computer. Lastly, you can "Sign Out" of GoToMeeting and "Exit" out of it completely. And there you have it, everything you need to schedule and manage meetings, right from the GoToMeeting flower in your system tray. - [Instructor] Most of us have certain ways of how we organize our computer desktops and which applications open when we first log in. If you're starting and joining meetings a lot, you can set your preferences on how GoToMeeting starts when you log in to your computer, and whether you want notifications for upcoming Meetings. Let's look at where you can make those settings. In the system tray, I'll right-click on the orange flower. And then select Preferences. And here under Start Up, I can choose whether GoToMeeting starts automatically after I log in, or if I'd like to manually do it. I can also select whether GoToMeeting remembers me on this computer. I can also choose to allow GoToMeeting to send me reminders and give me notifications that a Meeting is about to start. And finally I can choose to have GoToMeeting automatically install updates, which is the best practice so that your GoToMeeting is always up-to-date. I'll click OK to save these changes. And we're done. Once you've made your settings, GoToMeeting will immediately remember these preferences, and you can change them anytime, even if you're in the middle of a Meeting.
