ABSTRACT:
A handheld electronic learning aid is disclosed. The learning aid is utilized for teaching and testing associations between pictorial representations and the correct responses to the pictorial representations. A selected one of an associated group of numbered printed pictorial representations is randomly selected by the learning aid, and the operator attempts to correctly respond to the pictured object. Scoring functions and displayed reward phrases provide positive reinforcement of learned skills. One embodiment of the learning aid is utilized to teach and strengthen spelling skills in young children. Additionally, anagram or other alphabetic type modes of operation can provide training and experience in literary skills.
