vb.net is basically an object oriented programming .
Now This means that you can create your own classes and objects and also there are thousands of predefined classes in vb.net .
Here is an excellent post from idealprogrammer . It will explain you what are classes so easily that you cant imagine .

After you know what are classes and objects. Just dont think too much you will understand all these concepts when you start coding and learning vb.net.
Vb.net is totally different from vb6 or older version because notice the .net words after vb . It means that from vb version 6 microsoft decided to create a new version of vb which is totally different from vb6 and previous versions.
vb.net is powered by .net framework . Just for now think that all predefined functions and classes in vb.net are provided by the .net framework.
If you dont get it .
Here is one of my threads of last year >> http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vbgeneral/thread/3f66fcab-a32d-4b3c-a0e9-b7789242e80e
Now you know what is .net framework if still not dont hesitate to ask at idealprogrammer forums .
Now after that there are other languages which are also powered by .net frameowork like c#,asp.net,xaml and many more.
As i told there are many predefined classes in vb.net . But you have to choose only that one that helps you in achieving what you are trying to do .
So this means that you first need to make a rough sketch or write some points about your programme and what you want to do . This is called algorithum i guess.
Now after you have done all this.
You need to follow this order to learn vb.net topics.
Remember order is important.
First learn about vb.net . Like about toolbars,menu and it’s environment .
Next comes the coding part . you need to learn basic concepts that i told like data types etc
