You are in the unenviable position of being stuck between underfunded and/or ignorant educators, and of product deprecations, and will necessarily be providing some feedback to those educators.


Adobe Flash will cease working in three months.


Switching to a different web browser might get you further into that remaining three months, or potentially switching schools if that’s feasible here. But in three months, Adobe indicates that Flash stops working.


The following is from Adobe, highlights mine:

Adobe announced the deprecation of Flash in 2017 and access will be terminated (by Adobe) at the end of this year, and Safari 14 and other web browsers are blocking access to Adobe Flash ahead of that termination.


Another web browser might provide a temporary work-around, but Adobe Flash is gone in ~3 months.


There are folks working on open-source Flash players.
