photoshop

[jaime]

I am going to do a course soon on photoshop and was wondering how to approach the course. I have had minimal experience with photoshop but I do know the true basics. It is a week long course. How do i go about maximising this course and getting the most out of photoshop. In due time I am also going to be learning HTML, Dreamweaver, Flash, SEO and web design practicals.
What is the best overall plan in learning these programmes to the max. Should I constantly take down notes and pay extra attention. What are the areas of photoshop i should take note on.

Cheers
