Question: Does anyone have a suggestion for an online photography class that is free!?
I know a lot about photography, but I love to learn new things about it, so I'm looking for an online photo class that is FREE to take!. I really want one that is interactive and has a community/active teacher so that I can get my work critiqued!. Once again it must be FREE to take the WHOLE class! It should also give out daily/weekly assignments and have lots of info to learn from!. Thanks!Www@QuestionHome@Com

hp!.com has free classes!. They run about a week!. You have assignments and quizzes!. If you pass you even get a certificate!. Now in the end I'm not sure how well these classes stand up against getting a photography job, but you do learn things!.
A professional photographer teaches the classes!. There is a live chatroom and you can ask questions!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

While the assignments are twice a month instead of weekly, I hold continuous photography lessons on http://photography!.about!.com and its forums!. Lessons are posted on the main website and participants upload their images to the forum for judging and critique!. I also try to answer any question asked of my in the forums on specific images!.


Our current assignment is on bird photography!. http://photography!.about!.com/b/2008/09/1!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
