A learning device is disclosed having both a textbook of substantially conventional format and an electronic storage medium to be accessed through a computing device external to the textbook. At least one of the pages or binding of the textbook may include a transmitter which, upon positive actuation by the user, causes a signal to be generated and transmitted to a receiver of the computing device. Upon receipt of the signal, the computing device accesses and displays the additional information stored on the electronic storage medium. The electronically stored information may be accessible through a stand-alone computing device, a server, a web page, or the like. In so doing, the textbook and electronic media can be used in concert with movement between the two resources being seamless to the user.
