Anyone have a good recommendation for a complete beginner?

I may have accidentally'd a D600 + 18-50 IS lens for the Mrs' christmas/birthday present as an upgrade to her Olympus thing.. along with small light manfrotto tripod. To her memories are important.. so I figured - capturing them better would be a good start.

Now she's used to the idea of switching modes, understand zoom etc however I'd like for her to try her hand composition as well as getting the basics of ISO/f-stops and shutter speed etc.

Being into astrophotography.. my understanding of daylight photography is slim.. so I'd like to go on the course to :)
 
froknowsphoto video may be a good start.

Edit - sorry it's a digital download.

She seemed more interested in this - basically showing people rather than talking about it.

I'm guessing after she'll move onto something more formal - where I think a course or 'going digital' will help.
