ABSTRACT:
An electronic learning system that utilizes a plurality of coded cards on which sensory-information representations are provided to present pictorial-symbol information and/or language-symbol information, in conjunction with a housing that contains card slots in combination with a visually and functionally distinctive button associated with each individual card slot and a button associated in an equal manner to all card slots, wherein a card may be inserted in each of the card slots. The operator can cause the system to generate unique audible information associated with the sensory-information representation provided on any selected card by pressing the visually and functionally distinctive button associated with the card slot in which the card is inserted. The operator can also cause the system to generate, automatically and sequentially, unique audible information associated with the sensory-information representation provided on each inserted card and, depending on the type of cards installed, perform secondary functions as the individual cards are being accessed, such as, mathematical computations, pattern recognition, and spelling accuracy by pressing the visually and functionally distinctive button associated in an equal manner with all card slots, after which automatic tertiary functions take place such as the accuracy of the result of mathematical computations are accessed and an audible message is generated; an audible message equivalent to the combination of the installed cards is generated; and the accuracy of the spelling of words formed by individual cards is determined and an audible message is generated.
