Abstract

An operating device for early education is provided. The operating device includes an operating console comprising a plurality of various keyboards around an edge of the operating console used for receiving keystrokes, a data transceiver used for transmitting encoding information corresponding to keystrokes to a portable device and receiving activation controlling information from the portable device used for activating a keyboard, and a plurality of controlling keys used for receiving selection controlling information and transmitting the selection controlling information to the portable device by the data transceiver. Advantageously, the operating device includes a plurality of various keyboards that is independent of the portable device, which is convenient for children'"'"'s operation/input. Additionally, a plurality of various keyboards are provided, advantageously, more learning content interacted by means of the various keyboards can be provided by the application programs via the portable devices.

Claims
