Photoshop LevelUp: http://success.adobe.com/microsites/levelup/index.html
LevelUp for Photoshop is a game of missions — and points and rewards — that guide you along the way of learning basic Adobe® Photoshop® CC software skills. If you are just starting to use Photoshop, this is the game for you.
Online Portfolios: I highly recommend that you have all your students create an online portfolio that they can use to highlight their work.
