Quote:" The fact is that many educators have found that they can use Flash to teach their students effectively."
I think you (and those teachers that you refer to) are mistaking an effective lesson, for effective teaching.* Also, I think you mis-understand where the problem lies. Because of the way that Flash works, almost all of it is inaccessible to assistive technology. Adobe could do a better job, the makers of assistive technology could do a better job, but there is very little that the man in the middle can do, other than restricting the scope of Flash to things that could be better done with HTML etc. So from that perspective, any body that pushes Flash as a general purpose medium is doing a disservice to the community. --------------- * It may be easier to teach people to use Flash to get a particular result, but at the end of the day they have not learned what they need to know, which is that "Flash is Evil".
