摘要

An educational device includes a housing and a computer system disposed within the housing, The computer system comprises at least one processor-readable storage medium, at least one processor in communication with the at least one processor-readable storage medium, and a plurality of sets of processor-executable application instructions. The educational device also includes a display screen that is in operational communication with the at least one processor. A reader is in signal communication with the at least one processor and disposed within the housing, a location of the reader within the housing being indicated on an exterior of the housing by an indicator marker. A plurality of alphabet tags separate from the housing, not connected to a power source, are also provided. When a first alphabet tag of the plurality of alphabet tags is brought proximate to the indicator marker and the location of the reader within the housing, the first alphabet tag transmits first data to the reader. The at least one processor performs operations of receiving the first data from the reader, associating the first data from the first alphabet tag with a first set of processor-executable application instructions of the plurality of sets of processor-executable application instructions on the at least one processor-readable storage medium, and executing the first set of processor-executable application instructions based on receipt of the first data.
