A description is given of a drill apparatus which will omit a question from further presentation as soon as the learner has obtained the correct answer twice in succession. The apparatus is alleged to be meritorious in that it keeps the question to be mastered before the learner until he finds the correct answer, it informs him at once of the corrections of his response, and it prevents the overlearning of some parts of the lesson as well as the underlearning of others. Labor-saving devices in education are encouraged. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved)
