> radial or rectangular
> sweep modifier
> extrude modifier

modifiers
> bend
> cloth
> taper
> extrude
> displace

edit mesh
> vertex
> segment
> face
> polygons
> element
> slice plane ( select element, create the slice plane, slice and modify shapes)
> soft selection

lights
> light tracer
> sky light
> direct light
> projector map

rendering
> background colors & maps

i believe that is the extent of informative concepts we covered i expect you to experiement with these, enhance your current projects, and have a fun playing with the software because i feel that is the best way for you to learn this is just play with it to an applied project
