In the first question category, feedback is provided by Ellie both through speech and text, to assist the learner by suggesting to place another card on the table, or to place just one card (in case the child leaves two or more cards on the table). When the depicted object or animal is successfully identified, Ellie provides confirmation feedback, while a
characteristic sound is also heard (e.g., a telephone ringing, a lion roaring, etc.), and the system advances to the next question.
