This book is an excellent training aid for me. I would prefer to take a class, but wasn't able to get into one at the local community college. Rather than fumble with Elements 7.0 software, I bought the book, set up the lessons on the CD that accompanies it, and began class.

FOR ME and MY learning style this is a perfect method for becoming proficient with Elements 7.0. I purchased 7.0 to replace Elements 3.0 and I am able to use Elements 7.0 far easier than I used Elements 3.0!

Perhaps not as good as a class (for questions and seeing the mistakes of others), with a little dedication and effort I feel quite comfortable with Elements 7.0.

By Hank
Format:Paperback
The CD-ROM contains no videos, only still images used in working line by line through tasks/demonstrations in the book. I found that Classroom in a Book required a great deal of intensity and concentration. Am also realizing that I will not retain the skills and possibilities worked through. Mastery will require much repetition over time. To its credit, the Classroom is thorough and will provide a great step-by-step resource for me to turn to in the future. Part of the problem is that Photoshop Elements 7 is a powerful program possessing many possibilities that the average consumer is not likely to use.

Best I've found May 27, 2009
Format:Paperback
After working with digital images for a number of years and using several image editing programs, I decided to look at Photoshop Elements 7 to see if it offered improved and additional features. I was not surprised to find a great number of similarities, but there were indeed improvements and features that I could use. This prompted me to explore the program in greater detail.
To do this, I secured three second party books and set out to learn as much as I could about Elements. All these books helped me learn what I had hoped to, but of the three, Adobe Photoshop Elements 7 Classroom in a Book proved to be the most comprehensive and preferred source of information.
I found Adobe Photoshop Elements 7 Classroom in a Book to be extremely valuable in helping me to understand the layout and structure of the program. In addition to a program overview, it gave detailed information about how to execute program features, while providing a way to get "hands on" experience about what was being explained in writing. The books lesson format, including a CD with images necessary to complete the lessons, was the next best thing to actually being in a classroom. This also allowed me to work at my own pace and to a degree selectively learn about program features of interest.
At the end of each chapter, there were review questions (with answers) which if answered correctly insured that I had indeed learned what was intended.
In addition to explaining how to use the programs options, it gave examples about how to use them together to create projects to get the results I wanted.
I must admit that I have not read the book from cover to cover. That would be too much like having to go back to school. However, once I understood the layout of the book and the basic features of the program, I found that this book was a valuable resource and reference that I could use whenever I needed for additional information.
