The Virtual Training Suite tutorials aim to help university and college students to develop Internet research skills to assist with their coursework and assignments. The tutorials were written by a national team of UK university or college lecturers and librarians. They recommend key websites in their subject and help students to make discerning use of the Internet to help find information for coursework, literature reviews or personal research. This is an archived version of the tutorial. As of the 1st of August 2011 any further development of the tutorials is being undertaken by TutorPro at http://www.vtstutorials.co.uk http://dspace.jorum.ac.uk:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/14374 Digital camera storage Graham Ashman A simple, looped, flash animation showing the location of the removable memory storage card of a typical digital camera. http://dspace.jorum.ac.uk:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/14015 Image of a small audience Kristian Besley Kristian Besley Audience - group of people listening http://dspace.jorum.ac.uk:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/14013 Using reflectors and gels Lewis Jones This learning object, aimed at students of photography and lighting design (for the theatre, for example), examines the use and benefits of reflectors and gels to create different lighting effects. The effects of gold reflectors and reflector fill light are demonstrated by means of images. Students are then given the opportunity to recreate the different light effects produced by combinations of gels, fitted over lanterns. Fitting and replacing a gel is also demonstrated. An accompanying assessment item tests and consolidates what students have learned. A number of additional built-in tools are also available to enhance students' experience of the resource. These include a magnifying glass, a notepad, a calculator and a colour changer. http://dspace.jorum.ac.uk:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/13954 Golcha cinema Simon James Simon James This is a colour photograph of the historic Golcha Cinema in Daryaganj, Old Delhi. http://dspace.jorum.ac.uk:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/13900 Lighting combinations Graham Ashman Graham Ashman This interactive resource allows students to experiment with the different effects generated when light is shone on an object from different angles.

The advantages and disadvantages of each are listed together with detailed diagrams that describe each camera type's features. Quiz questions at the end of the learning object test what students have learned and an accompanying assessment item consolidates their knowledge. A number of additional, built-in tools are available to enhance students' experience of the resource.

Using a combination of text and images, it introduces students to the rules of composition - how the subject is arranged in the picture. It highlights the ways in which great photographs can be taken, introducing such techniques as filling the frame, using lines and symmetry, and using the rule of thirds. This rule imagines the frame to be divided into thirds and the best composition is derived from positioning the most important parts of the picture on the intersection of the thirds. Reducing the depth of field, minimizing clutter, using zoom, and breaking all the rules in general are also mentioned. An accompanying assessment item tests and consolidates what students have learned and a number of built-in tools enhance the students' experience of the resource. These include a magnifying glass, a notepad, a calculator and a colour changer. http://dspace.jorum.ac.uk:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/12984 How to insert a memory card into a digital camera Simon James Simon James Flash asset detailing how to insert a memory card into a digital camera http://dspace.jorum.ac.uk:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/12971 Facial expressions of anxiety Graham Ashman Graham Ashman Three interchanging photos of a man with an anxious expression. http://dspace.jorum.ac.uk:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/12951 Communicating around a table Kristian Besley Kristian Besley This is a computer-generated illustration of a group of seven people seated around a food table and talking.
