How to use animate tools

This week we learned how to animate text, shatter objects, and how to use auto key frame. For the shattering we found out that we didn't have to animate it if we pared it with the fracture attribute. The sample videos that we had to use were using a newer version of the same program we use so it was confusing. At least hopefully before Christmas we should have the newest version of the program. I can't wait to use the new program for class.
