| When Flash was no longer being supported by Adobe because it could not be seen on mobile devices, we had to create mp3 videos which could be eventually posted on YouTube. We subsequently created approximately 54 YouTube videos through transferring our Flash online interactive games to these mp3 videos. We are continuing to move all our materials to the YouTube video format.We explored social media opportunities and began the process of creating a foundation Facebook page.We also explored the possibility of applying again for a Google Grant. We began the application process at the end of the year.Since our cartoonist became quite ill during the year, we realized that we needed to have him complete as much artwork as possible, which was very important in light of his failing health. We worked closely with him to complete the drawings that we might need in the near future.We made a grant application for funding with the Rose Hill Foundation for program support.We found that our Flash program was having a number of technical glitches that we needed to trouble shoot, which took some time to investigate and correct.We researched the replacement for Flash animation in preparation of completing one of the last two chapters of our basic English grammar program.We drafted a development plan and outline for our Chapter 7-Punctuation program. | $1,962 | - |
