ABSTRACT:
An electronic handheld learning aid is disclosed. The learning aid is utilized to teach spelling and alphabetic skills. The learning aid randomly selects a word from memory storage and displays an appropriate number of blank spaces to the operator. The operator attempts to discern the word by entering proposed letters. The operator may also input a word for another operator to attempt to discern. Additional alphabetic format games and learning operations provide training and experience in literary skills. Scoring function and displayed reward phrases provide positive reinforcement of learned skills.
