Abstract: An answer card and an educational device are disclosed wherein a flexible card has answer selection points on a first side and at least one electrically conductive ink spot on the second side opposite a selection point. The electrically conductive ink spot acts as a switch when the selection point opposite the spot is pressed causing the electrically conductive ink to bridge an open-circuited educational device.
