| Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
I have identified and acquired a range of audio/video equipment for making educational videos and learned how to use them to produce high-quality videos.
I have uploaded these videos and made a YouTube video that has already far surpassed my previous attempts at making educational videos without this equipment. I am currently in the process of creating a library of paired edutainment and educational videos. I am currently in the process of preparing my first publication on the epistemology of the Avogadro number. I have produced 12 videos, with a total run time of three hours and twenty minutes. These videos have so far received nearly 1000 views. The preliminary conclusion, after 1 year, is that this project strategy is highly successful. I am currently producing a video every two weeks.

Current Status of Research Progress
2: Research has progressed on the whole more than it was originally planned.
Reason
This work is progressing as expected. I am producing videos according to my planned schedule and the channel is steadily growing.
|
| Strategy for Future Research Activity |
I intend to recruit students to help me with this work. This should enable me to get a variety of young perspectives on content and effective use of social media. I also intend to contact the science communication group at Kyushu University.
|
| Causes of Carryover |
I need to buy extra equipment, such as lens filters, batteries and lenses.
I intend to travel to at least one domestic conference, and hopefully to an international conference as well.
The videos also involve consumable expenses, such as costumes and props.
