Electronic Score Pad.

Abstract

A scoring system comprising a plurality of hand held programmable electronic score pads, a data interface device, and a general purpose computer. Students enter identifying data and answers into a data memory of the pads. Each pad subsequently is inserted into a data interface device whereupon the data memory is dumped, upon command, into a general purpose computer for analysis of the data and future presentation. The data is optically transmitted to the interface device which converts it to a format acceptable to the general purpose computer. Each pad has a multitude of features to facilitate data entry controlled by a microprocessor pre-programmed to sequence in a desired manner. (Author)
