The shortcut alt+tab is used to navigate between windows you have open without using the mouse. A little window pops up when you push the two buttons, and it has icons of all your open windows on it. You push the tab button again to scroll through the different icons, and when the one you want is selected, you let go of alt, and the computer magically goes to that window! It's awesome!!!
The ctrl+tab shortcut does the same thing more or less, but it's used to navigate through open tabs on the internet instead of open windows. And when you push it, no funny little box pops up, it just magically goes to the next window if you push tab while holding ctrl.
My teacher showed me these shortcuts because she 'hates the rodent'
