Abstract
The 5-0-2 Automatic Rater was developed as an instructional aid by the U.S. Navy during World War II. In the early 1950s, physical chemists R. A. Cooley and T. J. Roemer obtained a used 5-0-2 to test its effectiveness as a teaching tool in their courses. Although the device had little impact in that era, it was a forerunner to computer-assisted instruction so widely used today.
