Electronic education systems generally includes a central computer, a
display unit, and various student terminals connected to the central
computer by a data transmission network. The network transmits data to
and from the central computer for analysis, the data includes students'
task and their response. Such a system is relatively expensive, and is
not portable. This invention provides an electronic education system for
evaluating responses from a group of students to a set of multiple choice
questions. Each of the questions having a maximum of x choices. The
system includes at least one IR transmission device for transmitting a
plurality of IR signals to a console, which includes a processor for
analyzing the responses, a memory for storing the multiple choice
questions and corresponding answers, output means for outputting data to
a display device, and receiving means for receiving the IR signals.
