I'd suggest the following:
1. learn the basics well yourself before you start to teach. As Zarxrax says, don't teach them bad habits (especially if they're your bad habits, as they can be traced back to you
)
2. teach them the basics first - like how to rip music and dvds, how to prepare files, how to normalize music, how do basic cleaning, how to do indexing, etc. Don't jump into editing right away (which most people will probably want to do right away, as that's the fun stuff).
3. make sure you're teach them means and methods that are readily available to the 'general public' and not proprietary. F/free programs are the best (like those in the APP) to teach with as they all do their jobs very well and pretty much are easy to pick up quickly (except for that encoding with VirtualDubMod - I still don't get that part). If you use some obscure program that is only available to every 3rd cousin who runs a proprietary system setup that is optimized for left handed mousers, then I think you're going a bit too specific.
I think these are the basics you should teach them. If they don't want to go through all this, I don't know if they'd enjoy making amvs.
well, that' my advice, anyway...
