  • Abstract
    Teaching devices capable of directing the study of a student in accordance with his individual needs and capabilities offer exciting possibilities for the schools of the future. An "automatic" teaching device is one which incorporates both the presentation of information and the testing of the student in a controlled feedback relationship. This paper presents the case for "automatic" teaching devices along with some proposals for the construction of such machines.
