ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus is provided for automated learning and performance evaluation of a group of items by a user. The apparatus, which can be a digital computer, has input means for receiving a user's response, a display means for presenting the material to be learned and logic means for sorting the items. The method, which can be practiced on a digital computer, has steps of querying the user as to whether items are believed to be known or unknown, sorting the items into groups of perceived known and unknown items and generating a sequence of items to be displayed. An important feature of this invention is that the user is tested regarding his belief as to whether the item is known or unknown not as to his actual knowledge.
