Paul, This is one unit that I have struggled with to get content. We only have CS3, but a music teacher was telling me that CS5 is a much more polished product.
I worked through the book "Classroom in a Book for Soundbooth", showed students the videos that shipped with CS3, and students used the Soundbooth video tutorials from https://staff.learningplace.eq.edu.au/teaching/resources/Pages/AtomicLearning.aspx a website that is free to all eq personnel. For assessment, they had to do three things: 1. A folio of completed tasks 2. Record a 30 second radio grab advertising a coming event 3. I found a very funny 2 minute video on the Internet (called "greatest invention ever") which was a medieval spoof on using computers (an ancient lord had invented a wooden mouse). Students had to rip out the sound of one of the main speakers and replace it with their own. It's pretty basic, but I would sure like to hear of any other ideas. As a spinoff from the 3rd project (which the students enjoyed), when we did video editing, I downloaded the Barbara ANZ ads. We created props & set up a bank at school. Working in pairs, students had to pick which one of the 3 ads to do, extract the script, create the storyboard and shoot the ad. This structure made it easier for them when they had to create their own video.
