ABSTRACT:
An electronic system and method employing a plurality of record sheets or cards, for teaching, training, quizzing, testing and game playing when a person interacts therewith. In one form, a record card containing printed matter is inserted into a recepticle in a support and caused to move along a guide to an operating position where its printed face may be viewed and read. As it so travels, coded information on a border portion of the card is sensed to generate coded electrical signals, which are applied to effect one or more functions such as the programming of a computer, the selection of recordings from a memory, the generation of selected speech signals and sounds thereof, the control of a display or other interactive device or devices, the activation or control of a scoring means or the selective activation of testing electronic circuitry. In another form, one of a plurality of record cards is selectively disposed in a U-shaped recepticle or the like by hand and a coded edge portion thereof is read to generate coded electrical signals to identify the card or its printed contents. The card or sheet is predeterminately positioned and one or more selected areas thereof, which are indicated by printing, are pressed by finger to close selected switches of a plurality of pressure sensitive switches to provide signal or circuit means for performing such functions as answering questions, programming computing electrical circuits, selecting recordings from a memory, activating a display generating select speech from a memory, scoring, etc.
