An instructional aid device is provided. The device includes a plurality of individual pages which can be fixed or removably secured within a binder or binding. The individual pages include various instructions that can be used for any type of product assembly, directions on a do-it-yourself project, and educational manuals. One embodiment of the instructions is a cookbook that includes recipes for cooking different types of foods. Each instruction page includes a scannable code that is configured to automatically redirect the scanning device, such as a smartphone, to a website that includes instructional information. The device is configured to automatically display parts or ingredient types and amounts in the screen background over time, in order to provide continuous instruction to the user while they are executing a project or preparing the recipe.

Data processing systems according to various embodiments are adapted to process data regarding the self-awareness of a user for use in the development of the user's executive function. In various embodiments, the data processing system: (1) executes computer-readable instructions that, when executed by the at least one computer processor, facilitate the playing of a game by the user; (2) gathers performance data indicating the user's performance while the user plays the game; and (3) automatically evaluates the performance data to assess, for the user, the ability to remember to perform various tasks, to stay on task, and to coach others by taking perspective, giving feedback, and mentoring them to do well. The data processing system may gather and process related data on various levels and then use this information to assist the user in improving the user's executive function skills.

The learning device 80 includes a first learning means 81 and a second learning means 82. The first learning means 81 generates a skill state sequence representing time-series changes in a learner's skill state by machine learning using learner's learning results. The second learning means 82 learns a model in which problem characteristics that represent characteristics of problems used by a learner for learning, user characteristics that represent characteristics of the learner, and time information that represents time the learner solved the problem are explanatory variables, and the learner's skill state represented by the skill state sequence is an objective variable.

A method is disclosed to ensure that components in a complex system are correctly connected together. In one embodiment, such a method provides a library of previous configurations of a system. The system includes multiple components connected together with cables. The method generates, from the library, instructions for assembling the system by connecting components of the system together with cables. The method receives feedback generated in the course of using the instructions to assemble the system and uses the feedback to refine the instructions. In certain embodiments, a configuration associated with the assembled system is then added to the library. This process may be repeated to further refine the instructions and increase a number of configurations in the library. A corresponding apparatus and computer program product are also disclosed.
