Every time I do instruction (and I’m frequently teaching skills such as video editing, web page design, etc.) I find myself urging the students to remember that the software and tools we’re using today are constantly changing but to think of the larger concepts of design and creation and some of the types of skills and tasks in these platforms that will transfer to the newer interfaces. How will function x work in the next software development, we can’t be too sure – but, why is function x important and how does it impact the information you are creating is important. It’s a challenge but I try to stress that the skills you build now in one interface are skills that can transfer to other settings.
