I spent some time today working with one of the flash experts in the lab. He looked over the module to see how it was created. We talked about the size of the module and how it would be delivered. The module will be posted on the web in SOLAR. The file size is about 3MB. We looked over the project file to see how we could shorten its size. All the videos are loaded externally, but there are two in the focus and exposure activity that are embedded and cannot be loaded outside of the file because of the scripting. Marllon decided that would should add on a loading bar to let students know how long it will take to load it. He gave me a simple loading bar and we added it to the project.

I also worked on adding extra buttons and frames to add some more content. The project documentation for the flash course came in handy. I was able to use it in order to carry the project on a little further. There are more glitches in it and I have to make some more changes, but it can be found here.
