The Intro to Layers Video will explain that Layers are helpful, they let you edit in stages. You can turn them on or off to see changes you made, and keep changes isolated from your original photo. Photoshop houses layers in a single panel. To display the Layers panel, choose Window→Layers or, easier yet, press F7. The order of the layers in the Layers panel represents the order in the image. The top layer in the panel is the top layer in your image, and so on.
