I've been spending a lot of time lately helping "print" designers get up to speed on designing interactive projects. A few months ago Adobe hired me to create some training resources about interaction design. The result is four free resources that can be found on Adobe.com (click on the "interactive" tab on this page.
All these resources are intended to equip designers with what they need to know to move into interaction design. The resources include:
A comprehensive 17 page white paper titled Interaction design: Designing for interactivity on screens: a primer for print designers (pdf)
Three "Interaction 101" video tutorials on Adobe TV. Each 10-15 minute video covers a single interactive workflow, and includes source files so you can follow along:
Interaction 101: Create an Interactive Guide with InDesign CS5
How to use InDesign CS5 to create an interactive document for the Web.

A little strange having a white paper about interactivity but the table of contents is not even linked. No?
@Anonymous: Your comment made me chuckle. The lack of interactivity in the white paper is out of my control. I hope you find the [static] content useful anyway!
