Hello, Victoria:

For Windows 8 app design, try
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/hh779072.aspx. This will at least tell you what MS is calling its components.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/hh465424.aspx will give more details.

I don't believe there is yet a Win 8 version of the User Experience Interaction Guidelines, but I have read that the Win 7 version is still valid for desktop apps.  You can get that at http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=2695. 

Bon appetit!

Thanks for the links... that is more than I was able to find yesterday on UI design guidance for Windows 8.
