Abstract
A color-coded system of training illiterate, mentally handicapped or dyslexic individuals in the accurate ordering process which includes specifying colors designating particular items and the item bearing a particular color. Color-coded visual indicators such as catalog pages may be used to teach the individual to associate the color with the item and thereby simplify identification of the items to be ordered.
