This is going to be an intense semester – summer classes always are, as we try and cram 14 weeks into 7!
There is a very helpful tutorial online that covers the fundamentals of digital imaging: I recommend that you read at least the first section “Basic Terminology” and make sure that you understand all the key concepts of resolution, file formats, image size etc.
If you need a refresher on scanning, this basic guide should be helpful.
