RAW is the data from the sensor in digital form.
You can not see this without either using a program which allows it or changing to a format such as Jpeg or similar.
You will see it on the camera, as the necessary program to allow you to view it, is built in.
You really need to google 'What is RAW" and see what comes up. Some sites will be too technical and others too simple.
Ignore 'Raw eggs' or similar.
As a start try wiki.

Thank you for responding, NT73!
Both of those links helped me out a lot! I am excited to go out and try it now. I really appreciate the responses here. Much help! I had a few things I was wrong about with RAW, so this eased my mind a lot. I am going to practice with it now. The course I am currently taking requires us to use RAW (and I can see why). I just didn't want to set my camera to RAW and then not know what to do next! Thanks again
