The Exposure Compensation application below is a perfect way to practice how the +/- button works in conjunction with the histogram. The more positive compensation you add the histogram moves right. As you reduce the compensation to negative values the histogram moves left.

The depth of field application is a good way to visualize how adjusting your f-stop changes the background. As you click the buttons for the different f-stops look at how the background changes from completely blurry at low f-stop values to more detailed at high values.
