LEARNING ASSISTANCE SERVER, LEARNING ASSISTANCE SYSTEM, AND LEARNING ASSISTANCE PROGRAM

摘要

A learning assistance server 10 receives, for each question, the answer information indicating the answer to each question in the test questions input to an answer input area 103 on the test screen; updates the test progress information by registering the answer indicated in the received answer information in the test progress information about an appropriate student; and determines with reference to the competitive relationship information whether the student whose test progress information has been updated is linked as the competitor student. When determining that the student is linked as the competitor student, the learning assistance server 10 generates the competitor progress information based on the test progress information about the competitor student. To display the progress in a competitor progress display area 101 that is provided on the test screen and that displays the progress of the competitor student indicated in the competitor progress information, the learning assistance server 10 transmits the generated competitor progress information to the student terminal of the student to whom the competitor student is linked. This can increase the registered user's (student's) motivation for learning and thus can provide a learning assistance technique that can enhance the learning effect.

主权项

1. A learning assistance server that provides test question information indicating a test question to a student terminal used by a student through a communication network, the learning assistance server comprising:
a test associated information storage unit that stores test associated information including the test question information, test screen information indicating a test screen including a question display area that displays the test question and an answer input area on which an answer is to be input, and test progress information indicating progress of each student on the test; a competitive relationship information storage unit that stores competitive relationship information in which a student is linked to a competitor student indicating a student regarded as a competitor of the student; a test information transmission unit that transmits test information including the test question information and the test screen information to the student terminal; an answer information reception unit that receives, for each question, the answer information indicating the answer to each question in the test questions input to the answer input area on the test screen indicated in the test screen information; a test progress information update unit that updates the test progress information by registering the answer indicated in the answer information received with the answer information reception unit in the test progress information about an appropriate student; a competitor determination unit that determines with reference to the competitive relationship information whether the student whose test progress information has been updated is linked as a competitor student; a competitor progress information generation unit that, when the competitor determination unit determines that the student is linked as a competitor student, generates competitor progress information based on the test progress information about the competitor student; and a competitor progress information transmission unit that transmits the competitor progress information generated with the competitor progress information generation unit to the student terminal of the student to whom the competitor student is linked in order to display the progress in a competitor progress display area that is provided on the test screen and that displays the progress of the competitor student indicated in the competitor progress information.
