Patent attributes
An interactive study aid provides student- or other source-selected (208) questions for studying. Preferably in conjunction with machine-implemented or other information processing, the interactive study aid of the present invention provides a student with the ability to acquire, present/study, and collaborate upon study material (202) information. Acquisition of study material (202) information may be made through soft-text resources such as digital books or online resources. A pen scanner may be used to access hard copy information making pertinent portions available to the interactive study aid. Study material information may also be entered by hand. Upon entering the study material, the student can indicate the likelihood of its appearing on a test or the importance of the information to the student. Study sessions orchestrated by an Intelligent Learning Agent guide the student towards that material he or she is the most interested in either for tested/evaluated course work for a grade or for self study and interest.
