My first "Computer"

My first "computer" was not really a computer per se, but was a learning machine made by Welch Allen Scientific. It consisted of a video display that you would wind a filmstrip through, with 5 buttons labeled A-E below the screen. The filmstrip presented a subject (mine was Algebra), giving basic background info and instructions for 3-5 screens. After the intro, you were given a problem to work out, with 5 multiple-choice answers at the bottom. If you pressed the correct button, it took you to the next section. If you pressed the wrong button, it knew which thought process you had gotten wrong, and took you back to that set of instructions again. The second set of questions was different than the first set, if you missed the first one. It was a great learning tool, and one I have never seen repeated in ANY Algebra program I have tried since! None of them now seem to know WHY you missed the problem, which this early system did understand.
