According to a study,learning is faster through practical activities.Sugar environment is full of such activities.


The Activity will also allow the user to change the viewport so that he can test his website in various devices.
===Deliverables===
 
1.  Implementing CreateJS with sugar-web environment.<br>
The user can also debug the errors in his/her code.Also the user will have a '''ranking''' system which would help the user maintain his interest in the project.
2. Data Storage of User’s information.<br>
3. Tracking User’s progress and displaying suitable messages.<br>
4. Implementing tasks#1. <br>
5. Implementing Animations for tasks.<br>
6. Implementing Neighbourhood functionality<br>
7. Documentation of Beyond FlashCards (https://github.com/crusher95/BeyondFlashCards)<br>

The Ranks would be:'''Beginner, Intermediate and Professional'''.Also other users and the developers could rate the work of the user with the number of stars.


The Activity will also have a game for the users struggling with syntax and logical programming.The game would be something like the image given below .In the game there would boxes falling down from the sky with corrections of written on them and the error code would be written will be written on the truck.The user has to move the truck and catch the piece of code that is correct.The user will gain 5 points on catching each correct box and will loose if wither drops the correct box 3 times or catches the incorrect box.

I have been using HTML and CSS3 since past 5 years. I am also a professional freelancer from past 2 years.
I have been an active part of the community for quite some time now and have made contributions to various projects like Web Confusion,TuxMath etc. I should be able to complete the project on time since I have a strong background in the technologies that are to be used and I am also clear with the concept of the activity I would be developing.<br><br>
As,Summer break is the time when we get to work with things apart from our course curriculum.I am very confident that I would stick to the prepared weekly timetable and complete the project on time.
