A method of automatically customizing user training on a laboratory system is presented. The method comprises retrieving a configuration file of the laboratory system, logging into the laboratory system by a laboratory user, identifying and authenticating the laboratory user for use and training on the laboratory system, after the laboratory user is identified and authenticated by the laboratory system, retrieving training credentials required for that laboratory user for the laboratory system based on a user profile of the laboratory user, and based on the training credentials of the laboratory user, automatically assigning training material required for the laboratory user to use the laboratory system based on the training credentials of the laboratory user and the configuration file of the laboratory system and loading the assigned training material.

Embodiments of the present invention provide a computer system a computer program product, and a computer implemented method. Embodiments of the present invention can identify at least one user in a plurality of users using a plurality of indicative markers. Embodiments of the present invention can then dynamically analyze input data stored on a computing device associated with the identified user and generate an automated personalized walkthrough by tailoring a plurality of steps within the input data to the at least one identified user. Certain embodiments of the present invention can then, in response to generating the automated personalized walkthrough, generate an automated personalized tutorial by aggregating the generated walkthrough and the at least one identified user based on a predetermined threshold of assessment.

Identifying material with which students are struggling can guide educators' decisions on which modifications to the instructional experience will be most impactful to the learning experience. Educators make a finite selection of the nearly infinite number of possible combinations of instructional content, delivery approaches, instructional order, test questions, approaches for accountability, rubrics, and the like. Educators and administrators with thousands of students are incapable of processing the quantities of available data unaided. In some embodiments, a system enables users to view quantized metric data from a population of, for example, students. In some embodiments, the system displays a category-filtered presentation table of a single metric data source. In some embodiments, the system may display comparison presentation category cells that allow for direct, visual comparison of metric values from two different sets of quantized metric data from two different populations and thus enable instructors to improve the educational experience.

A pegboard of the present disclosure includes: a main device including multiple unit modules; a board plate including multiple receiving portions; and multiple pegs to be inserted into the multiple receiving portions, and the multiple unit modules include multiple sensor modules configured to sense whether the multiple pegs are inserted into the multiple receiving portions and multiple light source modules configured to output light to the multiple receiving portions.

A computer aided instruction system includes a keyboard driver and an instruction renderer. The keyboard driver is configured to retrieve a keyboard input from a user before the application receives the keyboard input, and the instruction renderer is configured to execute a computer aided instruction tutorial to instruct the user to input a specific key or key combination. The keyboard driver is further configured to transmit the keyboard input to the instruction renderer to evaluate whether the one or more keystrokes matches the specific key or key combination.
