It's a "programmed textbook" approach, which was pretty successful back in the
day. You listen to the audio and follow the text and illustrations and do the
programs as well as answer the questions in the margins. The point was
concentrated learning and focus, using the audio to 'hold you back' without
skipping or skimming, and using the repetition in the margin questions to fuse
the info into memory.

I was very proud of this back then. I could probably learn the 6809 all over
again (I'd need to!).
