I don't really have any plans on using sound. It's not really all that necessary, so I think I'll just leave it for last and add it then. Maybe. If I have time. And if I don't get distr - hey, something shiny!
What was I saying? Oh, right. Therefore, I think Carthage must be destroyed.

Assembling Your Demo
I haven't really learned much about the Arthurian legends for the simple reason that I already know most of it. Not everything, of course - I'd have to devote all my time to studying the legends, like Geoffrey Ashe - but I do know quite a bit. I've even read Culhwch and Olwen and the Mabinogeon. Heck, I can even pronounce Culhwch. So I didn't have to do any research whatsoever.
I have taken the learning process into my own hands by constantly studying everything I find interesting. Because hey, if it's interesting, why not learn it? It seems to go well, except for that one book I got from Miskatonic University. That was a very odd book. Good read, though. Anyway, I am not certain how to improve my self-learning skills, because they're already pretty good, so I pretty much know everything.

Adding Input I: Keyboard
I'm not really sure whether I like working with flash or not. On the one hand, it's complete bollocks (excuse my British) for doing backgrounds. On the other hand, I have had fun working with it. And on the third hand, I have never gotten the Paint Bucket to work properly. So I think that if I could get the tools to work properly, it would be much better. And anyway, I can just use Photoshop and Paint for backgrounds.

Adding Scenes
I'm not really using the story to teach as much as I am using the whole setting to teach. I think that's really easier to do; I haven't played many games that used the plot to teach. Mind, EcoQuest II did a good job of it, but it doesn't really count for the second question since I didn't play it for the Playing to Learn topic. I think that my game's been influenced by the King's Quest series - I can at least say that I've got better graphics than King's Quest I! - and this Arthurian game I played once called Arthur: Quest for Excalibur. In fact, the very basics of the plot (hero must recover Excalibur, which has been stolen) are the same in both my game and that game. Other than that, they're very different - Quest for Excalibur is much better. It has leprechauns. Well, a leprechaun. For a few minutes. And a kraken. Krakens are cool now.
