Abstract: A system for enhancing reading performance operates on a network-connected server with software executing from a non-transitory medium at the server providing an interactive interface for a user connected to the server via a browser link. There is a data repository coupled to the server. The interactive interface provides a word search exercise for the user for improving the user's reading performance, displays a passage comprising a first number of words and a search list with a second number of words that each appear at least once in the passage, the second number smaller than the first number, and when the user clicks on every word in the passage for a word that appears in the search list, that word is indicated in the list as found, until all the words in the search list have been indicated as found.

Abstract: Described is a method using a computer for grading student work on a problem when the student's own steps are shown in detail. A reference trace is created representing a best solution path to the problem.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for prioritizing the processing of standardized tests. One aspect of the present subject matter relates to a method for processing completed standardized tests. In one embodiment, test-processing priority information is received, and is associated with machine-readable identifiers for standardized tests. Completed standardized tests are received, and are identified by reading machine-readable identifiers. The identified standardized tests are processed according to the associated test-processing priority information such that higher priority tests are automatically processed before lower priority tests. Other aspects are provided herein.

Abstract: A method and system for providing updated help and solution information at a printing device is disclosed. According to one aspect, a printing device is configured to detect a problem relative to the printing device, to download solution data from a remote server, and display recommended actions to address the problem. According to another aspect, a printing device is configured to receive user input through a user interface on the printing device, and to print instructions for operating the printing device in response to the user input. According to another aspect, a printing device is configured to collect statistics that indicate how many times one or more particular help instructions or particular recommended actions have been selected or displayed. The printing device is further configured to provide the statistics to a remote server.

Abstract: A knowledge transfer approach is assessed by assigning multiple situation attributes for the knowledge transfer approach. Furthermore, a plurality of communication forms are attributed to the knowledge transfer approach. Based on the situation attributes and the communication form attributes, multiple relationships are derived. Based on these relationships, a compatibility value is determined between the situation attributes and the communication form attributes. Therefore, for a particular knowledge transfer approach, a compatibility value provides an indicator of the effectiveness of the knowledge transfer approach to a customer's specific needs. Moreover, the with multiple knowledge transfer approaches, the effectiveness of these approaches can be assessed by a calculation of compatibility values for each approach and the comparison of the different values.

Abstract: A correction support system enabling transmitting and receiving of a handwritten answer from a student, support for a corrector, and transmitting to and receiving by the student of a correction result is provided.

Abstract: A learning device comprises a receptacle for holding an information bearing card. The information bearing cards include a problem and a coded answer. The receptacle of the learning device includes a decoding display window with a movable writing screen which may be moved to cover or uncover the decoding display window. The user can insert the information bearing cards into the receptacle, write down a response on the writing screen with the display window covered, and compare their response with the correct answer by moving the movable writing screen to reveal the decoded answer through the decoding display window.

Abstract: A double-blinded label and a method for double-blind labelling a container are provided. The double-blind label comprises a multilayer identification and a multilayer double-blinded label. The double-blind label may include a tab extending beyond an edge of the label to secure the label when placed on a container. The double-blind label may also include a protective layer on one portion of the label to allow easy removal of that portion from the container while another portion of the label remains adhered to the container. The method comprises first printing on the identification label, attaching the blinding label then placing the label on a container. In a preferred embodiment, the method is continuous.

Abstract: An interactive coordinated book assembly useful for teaching in a parent/child, teacher/student or self-study environment, comprising: a plurality of left and right main pages, the pages containing textual material and a key word on each page, (The key word may be different on each page); a plurality of left and right activity pages, each of the activity pages containing an activity area and a direction text area; the main pages and the activity pages being alternately interleaved and bound along one edge to form a book; the direction text area on the activity page area containing at least one activity to be read by a parent to a child, the direction area text on the right activity page being reverse coordinated with the key word appearing on the left main page and the direction text area on the activity page area containing text to be read by a parent to a child, the activity being coordinated with the key word appearing on the fight main page, the left activity page containing a repetition of the key word p

Abstract: The present invention discloses a programmed learning device having a cover, a backing, and a leaf. An information sheet is releasably attached to the backing. The leaf folds over on top of the backing. The leaf has windows in it which expose certain portions of the information sheet. Tracks within the leaf receive a masking slide to cover certain portions of answer sheet.

Abstract: A carrier sheet has affixed thereto a multiplicity of separable, double-blind, multisection labels comprising a blind section, an open section and a record keeping section, the carrier sheet may be adapted for use in a computer printer to print information on the labels. The sections are designed to be used in double-blind drug tests.
