Abstract
Data in the form of discrete learnable objects, is automatically retrieved at time intervals and fed to a user by an electronic time data device based on options such as subject, alert and time interval of 60 minutes or less. Preceding or with the feeding of a data object, an alert is outputted, which is ceased by an input. Inputs such as answers to questions to test comprehension, can also be required. The system can evaluate the responses, and adaptively introduce a new subject when comprehension is demonstrated, and repeat data objects for which comprehension is not demonstrated. The interval, subject matter fed and other parameters can be controlled by the device, or remotely by a second device or administrator, and information representative of comprehension, marketing, and the like can be recorded and collected.
