Description

Method, apparatus and computer-readable storage medium for visual instruction
Technical Field
The present disclosure relates to digital teaching, and more particularly, to a method, apparatus, and computer-readable storage medium for visual teaching.
Background
With the development of technology, digital classroom solutions are becoming more and more popular. Digital teaching is used, for example, in classrooms with microscopes.
Traditional digital teaching schemes for microscopy generally use a similar technique of zeiss Labscope (V2.7) to provide a visualization experience. In these solutions, the software is imaging software that can only connect multiple microscopes. In the system, the teacher and the students have the same authority, and any teacher and any student can be connected to any microscope in the classroom. On the software screen as shown in fig. 1, the thumbnails are shown only as fixed numbers of the microscope. This configuration makes it difficult for teachers to find microscopes in a classroom and also not easy for teachers to better manage courses and students because they have the same authority.
Another way to digitize teaching solutions for microscopes is multimedia classroom software provided by third party collaborators to compensate for the lack of functionality of the microscope software. In these third party solutions, the students act as clients controlled by the teacher. However, these solutions do not allow the microscope to be associated with the student, and do not allow the student to use the microscope during the course teaching, nor do they allow important information required for the microscope teaching to be displayed.
There is therefore a need for further improvements in existing digital technology-based visual instruction solutions, in particular for microscopes.

Detailed Description
Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. The exemplary embodiments, however, may be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. The same reference numbers in the drawings identify the same or similar structures.
In the present disclosure, a microscope is taken as an example to introduce a solution for visual teaching using a teaching apparatus. However, the present disclosure is not limited to a microscope, a specific teaching device. Any digital classroom in which lesson teaching is performed using teaching devices that require the operation of students can employ the disclosed solution. Such as, but not limited to, a laboratory instrument, computer, console, fixed or mobile machine, etc.
For a teaching device-oriented visual digital classroom solution in the microscope arrangement of a learning environment, the control device and the microscope can be connected by means of a data link. An image of the microscope can be obtained by the control device in the software interface of the display device of the visualization system to present the microscope icons in the interface in the actual physical arrangement of the microscope in the classroom. The microscope's indicia is presented on the interface at all times regardless of whether the microscope is used by the student during the course of the teaching. However, the visual teaching scheme using the teaching device as a guide cannot use teachers and students as a guide, and corresponding settings are performed for different courses, and meanwhile, more information about the courses cannot be acquired. Another disadvantage of this approach is that access to the rights settings, course content and experimental data is also not possible for rights management.
For the intelligent terminals used by teachers and students in the visual teaching solution in the present disclosure, a management intelligent terminal and a user intelligent terminal are used for distinction, respectively. The management intelligent terminal and the user intelligent terminal can be provided by a provider in a unified way when the visual teaching system is provided, and can also be purchased, configured and accessed into the visual teaching system separately. Students participating in the course can also use own intelligent terminal equipment to access the visual teaching system in a mode of installing corresponding software or APP.
The course and student oriented visual teaching scheme according to the disclosed embodiments will be described in detail below.
First, the concept introduced in the embodiments of the present disclosure is explained.
This disclosure introduces the concept of "classroom". In reality, a classroom mainly includes teaching hardware. Teaching hardware includes, but is not limited to, teaching devices such as microscopes for course teaching. The microscope is generally fixedly arranged in a classroom and has a specific geometrical layout. "classroom" is mainly used to correspond to a classroom in which there is physical presence in reality. The classroom is used to map a real classroom (i.e., the real geometric layout in the classroom) to a teaching platform for visual teaching, establishing a link between the microscope geometric layout in the real classroom and the microscope display layout in the user interface of the visual teaching software. Classrooms are typically presented on a display device or User Interface (UI) integrating display and data entry functionality, which may be a user interface of a server for running the classroom or a management smart terminal.
The present disclosure also introduces the concept of "lessons". In a similar manner to teaching in a real classroom, teachers have independent rights and content for their own lessons in the classroom. The teacher may define access rights for each student in the course, generate a group that meets their requirements for the course, prepare content before the course and place the content in the course in the storage space of the course. The teacher may also set the software function availability of the user's intelligent terminal used by the student based on the content of the lesson.
FIG. 2 illustrates a visual tutorial system according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure.
Visual tutorial system 100 can include a management smart terminal 101, at least one user smart terminal 102 and at least one tutorial device 103 such as a microscope. It should be appreciated that the visual instruction system 100 actually presents the layout structure of the classroom and the lesson as icons on a display interface or user interface. Fig. 2 can be viewed as the physical layout of visual tutorial system 100. The system 100 may also include a server 104, typically the server 104 is not shown in a visual layout of a classroom presented on a display interface or user interface. The user intelligent terminal 102 and the teaching device 103 can be in communication connection with the management terminal 101 and/or the server 104, respectively.
According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the management smart terminal 101 may include a user interface (UI, which may be, for example, a graphical user interface GUI), a processor, a communication device, a storage device, and the like. The user interface is used to display and input data. The processor of the management intelligent terminal 101 is used for performing operation and control, and completing the control operation of the management user intelligent terminal 102. Most of the management and control operations of the classroom by the teacher and/or the administrator (such as the administrator of the teaching institution or the visual teaching system) can be completed by the management intelligent terminal 101. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, role entry is also supported in a lesson for multiple instructors, all instructors having all rights except for ending the lesson. Only the teacher who starts the lesson has the right to end the lesson. At this time, the visual teaching system 100 may include a number of management smart terminals 101 corresponding to the number of teachers.
The communication device of the management intelligent terminal 101 is used for data communication with the server 104, including but not limited to obtaining data from the user intelligent terminal 102 and the microscope 103 from the server 104, sending control and setting commands and corresponding parameters to the server 104, the user intelligent terminal 102 and the microscope 103, or transmitting data between the user intelligent terminal 102, the microscope 103 and the management intelligent terminal 101 through the internet or a local area network by sending control commands to the server 104 (at this time, the server 104 does not transfer data of the microscope 103). The storage device of the management intelligent terminal 101 or the server 104 is used for storing data required for managing the operation of the intelligent terminal 101, and may also be used as a private storage sub-space for managing the intelligent terminal 101. The storage device of the management intelligent terminal 101 or the server 104 may also store lesson courseware of the teacher, experiment-related data of the teacher in the lesson, filing data obtained after the teacher processes the experiment data of the students, and the like.
In a visual layout of a classroom, icons on the user interface of the management smart terminal 101 may show the status of students using the user smart terminal 102. The status includes, but is not limited to, personal information of the student, whether the student is operating the corresponding microscope 103, the online and operating status of the user intelligent terminal 102, and the like. Typically, the teacher will also be equipped with a corresponding microscope 103 to facilitate teaching. The system 100 may also be used without the microscope 103 for the instructor, in which case the instructor may instruct the student to operate the microscope 103 during the course without the need to operate himself.
System 100 includes one or more user intelligent terminals 102-1, 102-2, …, 102-9, each corresponding to a student participating in a course. In the following, the corresponding student may be labeled with the label (e.g., 102-1) of the user smart terminal 102.
Similar to the administrative smart terminal 101, the user smart terminal 102 may also include a user interface (UI, which may be, for example, a graphical user interface GUI), a processor, a communication device, a storage device, and the like. The computational and control operations of the processor of the user intelligent terminal 102 include, for example, but are not limited to: the student operates the microscope 103 correspondingly interconnected with the user intelligent terminal 102 and acquires the state of the microscope 103 correspondingly interconnected; other microscopes 103 may be operated and the status of the microscope 103 may be obtained if permitted by the authority; receiving commands and data from the management intelligent terminal 101; accessing a storage space and a private storage subspace corresponding to the user intelligent terminal 102; if the authority permits, accessing the private storage subspaces of the intelligent terminal 101 and the intelligent terminals 102 of other users; the teaching information and the like are displayed on the user interface of the user smart terminal 102. Generally, a user intelligent terminal 102 and a microscope 103 establish a corresponding interconnection relationship, and generally, a student operates the microscope 103 correspondingly interconnected with the user intelligent terminal 102 and acquires the state of the microscope 103 correspondingly interconnected.
The communication device of the user intelligent terminal 102 is used for data communication with the microscope 103, including but not limited to acquiring data from the microscope 103 and sending control commands to the microscope 103. On the other hand, for data communication with the server 104, including but not limited to acquiring data and commands from the managing smart terminal 101 via the server 104 from the server 104 or sending a request to the managing smart terminal 101 via the server 104. The user intelligent terminal 102 may also send control and setting commands and corresponding parameters to the microscope 103 of the other user intelligent terminal 102 via the server 104 through the communication means, if the rights allow it, and access the other user intelligent terminal 102. The storage device of the user intelligent terminal 102 is used for storing data required by the operation of the user intelligent terminal 102, and can also be used as a private storage subspace of the user intelligent terminal 102. Experimental data and the like generated by students in courses can be stored in the storage device of the user intelligent terminal 102.
According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, the server 104 is not used for forwarding of image data of the microscope 103. The user intelligent terminal 102 directly establishes connection with the microscope 103 to acquire image data so as to ensure the quality and speed of the data. But other rights, as well as command data, may be forwarded through the server 104.
In a visual layout of a classroom, the icons of the user smart terminal 102 may show the status of the student using the user smart terminal 102. The status includes, but is not limited to, whether the student is in class, the online and running status of the user smart terminal 102, etc.
According to embodiments of the present disclosure, the administrative smart terminal 101 and the user smart terminal 102 may be fixed or mobile smart terminals. When the smart terminal is a mobile smart terminal, it may be selected from a smart phone, a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), a tablet computer (e.g., iPad of APPLE inc.), a laptop computer, a notebook computer, and the like. Usually, the intelligent terminal is provided by the provider of the visual teaching system 100, but the present disclosure supports teachers and students to perform the function of managing the intelligent terminal by accessing the system 100 with their own terminal devices. The own device is also controlled and privacy is also protected.
The system 100 may provide the same intelligent terminal for teachers, administrators, and students. Logging in on the intelligent terminal by using different account numbers so as to distinguish that a user of the intelligent terminal is a teacher, an administrator or a student. According to the account types, the intelligent terminal used by the teacher (or administrator) is recorded as the management intelligent terminal 101, and the intelligent terminal used by the student is recorded as the user intelligent terminal 102. If the teacher and the students use the own device to access the system 100, the teacher and the students can also be distinguished by the account login mode.
According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the system 100 comprises at least one microscope 103. In general, each microscope 103-1, 103-2, …, 103-9 in the microscope 103 corresponds to a user intelligent terminal 102-1, 102-2, …, 102-9, respectively, used by a student using the microscope 103 to indicate that a particular microscope 103 is operated by a particular student.
The microscope 103 further comprises communication means for data interaction with the server 104. The communication device of the microscope 103 may transmit its own status and data to the server 104 or to the management intelligent terminal 101 and the user intelligent terminal 102 via the server 104, and may also receive an operation instruction and corresponding parameters from the server 104 or the intelligent terminal to complete a microscope action required for a lesson. The status of the microscope 103 includes, but is not limited to, its own operational status, fault status, and online status, with data including, but not limited to, observation data in the form of images, video, or parameters. In a visual layout of a classroom, the icon of the microscope 103 may also show the status of using the microscope. The states of the microscope 103 and the user intelligent terminal 102 may be combined to show the comprehensive state of the student operating the microscope, etc., providing more information needed for digital teaching of the microscope. With the above configuration, the teacher can easily see the correspondence relationship between the students and the microscope 103, and by the correspondence and the state of the user intelligent terminal 102 and the microscope 103, it is possible to obtain which student operates which microscope 103 at which position in the classroom.
According to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the server 104 is connected to the management intelligent terminal 101, all the user intelligent terminals 102, and all the microscopes 103, respectively. The server 104 may monitor the status of all smart terminals including, but not limited to, a connection status such as whether online, where the smart terminal is currently located in a classroom, and which microscope the smart terminal is currently viewing, etc. The server 104 may also monitor the status of all microscopes (particularly the cameras of the microscopes), including but not limited to the connectivity status, presence or absence of the cameras, etc. Typically, the server 104 does not appear in the visual layout of the classroom presented on the display interface, but runs the classroom as a system platform while completing data communication and interaction between the various components. In this way, all communications between the administrative smart terminal 101, the user smart terminal 102 and the microscope 103 are controlled by the server 104. For example, the server 104 forwards commands issued by the administrative smart terminal 101 to the student's user smart terminal, including but not limited to black screen, lock, Labscope settings, and the like. The server 104 may also manage the students' rights to access the microscope. The advantage of this arrangement is that a uniform interface is provided by the server 104, facilitating rights management and extension.
The connection of the server 104 to the other parts may be by wire or wirelessly. The wired means may include a dedicated CABLE or a general standard CABLE such as USB, CABLE, etc. The wireless mode includes but is not limited to bluetooth, Zigbee, WIFI, GSM, GPRS, WCDMA, LTE, etc. The system 100 can implement a small-scale visual teaching using a local area network such as ethernet, and can also implement a remote visual teaching by accessing the internet.
The server 104 may also include a storage device for storing the classroom storage space and the private storage sub-space of each intelligent terminal. The advantage of transferring the private storage sub-spaces of the administrative and user intelligent terminals 101, 102 to the server 104 for storage is that after one intelligent terminal is disconnected from the system 100, other intelligent terminals can still access the data stored in the disconnected intelligent terminal in the system 100. The storage device of the server can store files and set corresponding storage space for each student, and can also store configuration information related to courses.
According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the storage of the server 104 may be provided in the form of a separate database or data server, or at least one of the storage space and the private storage sub-space may be stored on the cloud. The advantage of using cloud storage is that the smart terminal can access the data related to the lesson stored in the storage space and the corresponding private storage subspace at any location.
The visualization teaching process according to the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail below.
A teacher or administrator (e.g., an administrator of a teaching facility or an administrator of a visual teaching system) establishes a "classroom" in a storage space or a management intelligent terminal based on the actual environment of the teaching facility (e.g., a plurality of classrooms containing microscopes), or based on the classroom in which a microscope may be set. The teacher as shown in fig. 3 generates user interfaces of class and classroom on the management intelligent terminal, and assuming that a teaching institution has three classrooms or classes that have microscopes or need to be equipped with microscopes, a teacher or administrator generates user interfaces of corresponding classrooms on the management intelligent terminal, including classrooms 401, 402 and 403. If further classroom establishment is required, the "Add classroom" option 404 below the interface can be clicked.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the visual teaching system can establish three different types of login accounts, namely, a teacher login account, an administrator login account, and a student login account. Each login account has different permissions, and only the administrator has the permission to add, delete or modify the teacher. The teacher and the administrator have different user interfaces and different permissions after logging in.
On the basis of the classroom, the teacher or the administrator clicks the new course option 404, and further creates a new course according to the teaching requirement, such as the course 4021. The user interface shown in figure 5 is entered after clicking on the "add courses" option 404.
The geometry of the microscope 103 in fig. 2 is assumed to be that of a real classroom. As a visual layout of a classroom, an administrator (for example, an administrator of a teaching institution or an administrator of a visual teaching system) can set a layout position of a microscope using a manner such as dragging and new construction in accordance with a placement position of the microscope 103 in the real classroom of fig. 2 in a space represented in a grid form made of lattices (Grids, for example, 501 or 502) — a "canvas" User Interface (UI) displayed by a classroom sub-interface of a management smart terminal as shown in fig. 4A, and place the microscope as a teaching apparatus in the corresponding lattice. It should be noted that the classroom sub-interface of the intelligent management terminal of the visual teaching system shown in fig. 4A is used to configure the user interface of the classroom device and the students, and this interface is a management interface used by the administrator to configure the microscope used for the course and the accessible students and the course template. Preferably, the "canvas" may be infinitely enlarged to accommodate classroom requirements of different sizes. The classroom layout is located within a "canvas" and is set by a teacher or administrator. For example, the microscopes 103-1, 103-2, and 103-3 are arranged side by side, the microscopes 103-4 to 103-9 are arranged in a star shape, and the microscope 103-0 used by the teacher is arranged separately. In the case of special course teaching requirements, the microscopes 103-1 to 103-9 may also be located in different classrooms in reality. In the case where the microscopes 103 are located in different classrooms in reality, the visual layout of the classrooms may still present the geometric arrangement of these microscopes 103.
Fig. 4B shows a classroom sub-interface in which the position of the microscope 103 in the classroom layout on the "canvas" can be arbitrarily moved. For example, microscope 103 may be dragged and dropped from the position indicated by grid 503 to the position indicated by grid 504. If the microscope 103 is dragged and dropped to a location outside the scope of the current classroom layout, the classroom layout can automatically extend across the "canvas" to include the grid corresponding to the new location to which the microscope 103 is dragged and dropped.
The size of the classroom layout can be set in advance or can be modified at any time. In another embodiment of the disclosure, before arranging the microscope 103 within the classroom layout, the teacher or administrator may complete the setting of the "canvas" by entering the number of lattices in the "canvas" (i.e., the grid) that the classroom layout includes and the size and shape of the grid made up of the lattices. For example, the classroom layout is set by setting the size of a grid, for example, in the form of a lattice matrix, i.e., the number of rows and columns of the lattice. For example, in the classroom sub-interface shown in fig. 4C, the classroom layout is arranged through window 505 to include a 10 row and 10 column grid. The classroom layout can also be manually resized using an interface such as that shown in fig. 4C if the teacher or administrator thinks the classroom layout is not large enough to arrange all of the microscopes 103. For example, a classroom or administrator can set and adjust a classroom layout (i.e., a grid or "canvas") by dragging objects displayed on the GUI. The objects displayed on the GUI correspond to the above-described microscope as a teaching apparatus, an intelligent user terminal representing a student, a grid boundary, and the like. The object may be presented in the form of an icon, for example.
Fig. 4D illustrates another exemplary classroom sub-interface. In the classroom layout setup process in fig. 4D, each microscope 103 is placed within a grid in the "canvas", with a fixed position and is not movable (dragged). If the teacher or the administrator recognizes that the placement position of the microscope does not coincide with the layout of the microscope in the actual classroom after the teacher or the administrator places the microscope 103 at the wrong position 506; or when the microscope is placed at a position where other microscopes are already placed or the microscope is placed outside the classroom layout range, the system will prompt the microscope to be placed incorrectly; at this point the teacher or administrator must delete the microscope 103 located in the wrong location and then re-add the microscope 103 to the correct location. For example, the microscope 103 may be placed in a location where no microscope has been placed, or by modifying the size of the classroom layout to provide more free locations for the microscope.
After configuring the position of the microscope 103 in the "classroom", the teacher or administrator further configures students corresponding to a specific microscope 103 according to the position of the microscope 103 based on the list of students taking a course and/or the list of study numbers, and assigns corresponding student login accounts to each student. When configured, the interface displays the layout of microscope equipped students in the classroom as shown in fig. 5, and the administrator can set a corresponding student for each microscope location, e.g., student 601 sits in the upper left corner of the microscope area. One microscope 103 may be configured for one student, multiple students, or no student at one or more microscope positions. In the embodiment shown in fig. 4B, the position of the student in the classroom layout can be arbitrarily moved similarly to the positional arrangement of the microscope 103. The correspondence between the student and the microscope can be configured by placing the user intelligent terminal used by the student in the lattice of the grid. Also, the classroom and the administrator can set and adjust the correspondence between the student and the microscope by dragging an object representing the student or a user smart terminal used by the student displayed on the GUI.
In addition to classrooms, the classroom 403 for discussing courses shown in fig. 3 may be established according to embodiments of the present disclosure. Compared with common courses, the discussion courses are more focused on communication between teachers and students, and more interactive functions can be set in the intelligent management terminal and the intelligent user terminal aiming at the discussion courses.
The classroom setting and management can be completed through the teacher's management intelligent terminal. The teacher may have independent rights and content in his or her course. According to the embodiment of the disclosure, the visual teaching system can further comprise a super intelligent terminal used by an administrator for performing bottom layer setting of the system, and can also be used for configuring a management intelligent terminal. The functions of the super intelligent terminal can be completed through an account mechanism, for example, an administrator can complete configuration by logging in an administrator account through a management intelligent terminal.
The basic server settings for establishing a classroom may include, for example, data communication parameters between the server and each of the intelligent terminals and the microscope, control driving functions of the microscope, basic server settings for operating a visual classroom, functions for managing the intelligent terminals, and user interface displays.
So configured, all classrooms and class-related classes for each Classroom can be seen in the user interface of fig. 3, for example, in the Tuesday class in Classroom 402, known as "Microscopy classorom 202," there are 15 students using 38 microscopes. It should be appreciated that the number of students and the number of microscopes in each different class are not the same.
In another embodiment of the present disclosure, each student and teacher may use a single microscope, or multiple microscopes may be operated through respective intelligent terminals.
The teacher prepares the corresponding course before class. For example, a classroom may provide microscopic teaching experiments such as cytology, biomolecule, and material science, and a teacher may prepare courseware content for a relevant class. The courseware content comprises lectures, experimental operating rules and cautions displayed to all students, content and data required to be quoted in previous courses, and can also comprise experimental data and lesson preparation notes of teachers.
As shown in fig. 6, the teacher clicks on the corresponding lesson while they are in class. The lesson with live icon (Rocky's classorom) indicates that the current lesson is being used by other teachers (in class). Other classes in the current classroom are prohibited from being used during this period, but the teacher may select the class that is in progress and proceed to participate in the lecture. Then, also entering the student/microscope layout interface shown in fig. 5, the teacher can easily associate the positions and states of the students and microscopes in the intelligent terminal user interface with the positions of the actual students and/or microscopes in the classroom during the course by setting the correspondence between the students and microscopes and their layout correspondence with the positions of the students and microscopes in the real classroom. As with the classroom sub-interface shown in fig. 7 and 8, if the user icon showing the student 701 is labeled with a humanoid pattern logo and the humanoid pattern is green, then the student 701 is indicated as being online, and if the humanoid pattern is gray, the current student is indicated as being offline. If the identifier in the upper right corner of the user icon of the student 701 is green, it indicates that the microscope and/or the camera on the microscope corresponding to the student 701 is working normally. For example, the identification of the upper right corner of the user icon for the student 702 is red, indicating that the microscope and/or camera on the microscope corresponding to the student 702 is not working. And if the user icon does not have the human-shaped pattern mark, the microscope is represented to have no interconnection relation with any user intelligent terminal. If the user icon has a plurality of human-shaped pattern identifications, the microscope and the user intelligent terminals used by a plurality of students are shown to establish an interconnection relationship. If the plurality of human-shaped patterns in the user icon are marked in gray, it indicates that a student is out of line. Typically, the on-line or current behavior of a student is achieved by detecting the state of the user's smart terminal used by the student.
According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, microscopes and students that are not selected in a class of a classroom may not be displayed in the classroom layout, i.e., microscopes that are not used in a class and user smart terminals of students that are not participating in the class are not displayed in the classroom "canvas" or grid layout. According to another embodiment, the microscope not used and the user intelligent terminals of students not participating in the class may also be displayed in other display manners different from those presented in the classroom by the microscope used in the class and the user intelligent terminals of students participating in the class.
After the established course is complete, the teacher will determine the requirements for the course. According to the course requirements, the teacher can establish a corresponding classroom. Classroom settings include, but are not limited to: the method comprises the steps of establishing basic server settings required by a classroom, microscopes required to be used in the course and students participating in the course, the permission of each microscope for accessing by a user intelligent terminal of each student, the permission of the teacher for accessing by the user intelligent terminal of each student and the permission of the user intelligent terminals of other students, the function of the user intelligent terminal of each student, the grouping of the students and the microscopes, establishing a storage space and a private storage subspace usable by the user intelligent terminal of each student and the management intelligent terminal based on the access permissions of the user intelligent terminals of the students in the grouped group and the microscopes in the grouped group, and setting the access permissions of the storage space and the private storage subspace.
Fig. 9 and 10 show a user interface of a visual education system for managing authority setting of an intelligent terminal according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
The administrator of the teaching institution or the visual teaching system can pre-configure templates possibly used in the course in the administrator interface, and all teachers using the course can directly select the required templates in the drop-down list. If the teacher needs to customize the template, the "Edittemplate" option in the drop down list may be selected. A template management window may appear on the interface and the teacher may save the customized template as shown in fig. 9. The "Select Template" row shows the current Template name "D". Clicking on the gear picture of the "Custom Settings" row pops up the option to delete or rename the current template. The teacher restricts the FORMAT in which the student takes pictures by selecting "DEFAULFILE _ FORMAT," which may include, for example, CZI, JPG, TIF, CZI + JPG, or CZI + TIF. The teacher may set "DEFAULT _ COPY _ enter _ SNAP" to an enabled state, and pictures taken by the student will be copied directly and sent to the student's web folder.
The teacher can also set certain functional modules to be enabled or disabled, such as microscope settings, graphical annotations, display settings menus, camera settings, and shooting modes. Wherein the shooting mode can select to disable several specific modes or disable all shooting modes.
The template may be applied to all students or a designated student.
In order to avoid the students from performing irrelevant operations in the course, the teacher can blank screens or lock the intelligent terminals of all the students or the designated students to a designated interface.
For users using public intelligent terminals, the teacher may choose to clear all local files on the student's intelligent terminal in order to protect the user's privacy.
The icon of the palm is used for clearing the hand-lifting state of the student on the interface.
According to the embodiment of the disclosure, the teacher can also set the functions of the user intelligent terminal used by the student. The user intelligent terminal not only has the functions of operating the microscope and acquiring the state information of the microscope, acquiring data from other intelligent terminals, equipment and servers, accessing other user intelligent terminals and managing the intelligent terminals according to the access authority, and accessing the storage space and the private storage subspace according to the access authority, but also can add more functions according to the requirements of courses. For example, the user smart terminal may have more social interaction functions in the seminar classroom 403 shown in fig. 3. In addition, the user intelligent terminal can have a function of 'lifting hands' for asking teachers or asking questions. When the student uses the hands-up function of the user smart terminal, the request may be sent to the managing smart terminal, for example, through the social module and have a relatively high priority. Correspondingly, the management intelligent terminal of the teacher can also have a function of asking questions to students like roll calling.
The teacher can also set the access authority of the students to access the teacher's management intelligent terminal and the user intelligent terminals of other students. By setting the access authority of the intelligent terminal, students can operate corresponding microscopes or acquire contents shared by other students on the intelligent user terminal by accessing the intelligent user terminal of other students. Generally, the teacher's management intelligent terminal has access to all students ' user intelligent terminals and all microscopes for monitoring purposes, whereas students can access other students or teacher's intelligent terminals only under the condition of authorization.
It should be understood that the data exchange between the administrative and user intelligent terminals is mediated through the server. The server typically does not relay microscope data. Generally, the access right of a student to a microscope is realized by setting the access right of a user intelligent terminal used by the student.
After the geometric layout of the microscope and the students is set, the teacher can set the access rights of the students and the microscope. For example, one or several students may operate one or several microscopes, and one or several microscopes may also be operated by a particular student or students. Access rights to the operation include, but are not limited to, adjusting mechanical actions and parameters of the microscope, setting of electronic functions, viewing images of the microscope, obtaining results of the microscope, and the like.
According to the embodiment of the disclosure, the teacher can further group the students and the microscopes according to the requirements of the lessons and set different access rights for the students and the microscopes in each group. Taking the layout structure diagram in fig. 2 as an example, students corresponding to the user intelligent terminals 102-1 to 102-3 operating the microscopes 103-1 to 103-3 may be set as one student group 105, and these microscopes may also be set as the corresponding microscope group 105. Likewise, students corresponding to the user intelligent terminals 102-4 to 103-9 of the microscopes 103-4 to 103-9 may be set as one student group 106, and the microscopes 103-4 to 103-9 may also be set as the corresponding microscope group 106. According to another embodiment, grouping may not be performed according to the geometric arrangement of the microscope, for example, the microscope and student grouping 106 may include students corresponding to the microscope 103-1 and the user intelligent terminal 102-1. It should be understood that the groupings of students and microscopes may not be in a one-to-one correspondence, i.e., microscopes operated by students within the same student grouping may not belong to one microscope grouping, nor may microscopes within the same microscope grouping be operated by students within the same student grouping.
The selection of the groupings is based on the requirements of the lesson. In one embodiment, a cytological lesson conducted in a classroom includes two sets of experiments, each set of experiments using a different microscope than the corresponding participating student. The grouping of students and microscopes can be done according to the experimental class of the course. In another embodiment, where a classroom is conducting both cytological and biomolecular experiments, students and microscopes can be grouped separately according to the type of experiment. In a real classroom, where microscopes and students performing different experimental types may be in a cross-arrangement, it is still possible to visually embody the above and accurately group the students of these microscopes in the classroom sub-interface of the present disclosure.
The teacher may send information (e.g., "roll call") separately to a particular group along with information from his or her own corresponding microscope 103, or the teacher may set the access rights of the students and microscopes based on the group. For example, a student within a particular student grouping may access a microscope within the particular microscope grouping or one or more microscopes not grouped, and a microscope within a particular microscope grouping may be accessed by a student within a particular student grouping or one or more students not grouped. Similar to the case of no grouping, the user intelligent terminals of students within a particular student grouping may have different access rights to the user intelligent terminals and the administrative intelligent terminals of other students or student groupings.
As shown in fig. 11, 12, the administrator can set the groups 01, 02, 03 as shown in fig. 11 in advance at the time of configuring the lesson. The administrator may rename each group while the server automatically assigns a different color to each group. When a group is selected, the group member's icon is displayed in the color of the group. As in fig. 11, group 03 is selected, and students normal3, normal6 in fig. 12 all display the color of group 03, each of which is assigned to a microscope.
The teacher can click on the discussion button and students normal3 and normal6 can see all microscopes grouped in group 03. Fig. 12 shows the observation situation that student normal3 and the user intelligent terminal of normal6 are connected together on the same microscope after the discussion.
The teacher can create the temporary group in class according to own needs, but the temporary group is not saved after the class is finished. As shown in fig. 13, the teacher is added with a temporary group 04.
When the teacher selects a team, various instructions may be sent, but all instructions are only effective for that team member.
Through the setting, the teacher can set the access authority of a student, a group of students or all students and the function of the intelligent user terminal through the intelligent management terminal, and also can set the access authority of a microscope, a group of microscopes or all microscopes. It should be noted that the student and microscope groupings and permissions are typically set for the corresponding lessons. The grouping and permission setting between different courses in different classrooms are not common, that is, students taking part in different courses generally cannot access each other, microscopes operated by the students also cannot be common to each other, except for special setting by teachers or administrators. The teacher may also have more control over these different ranges of students or microscopes during the course, as described in more detail below.
According to the embodiment of the disclosure, the teacher can also set a storage space on the classroom sub-interface through the management intelligent terminal and further set a private storage sub-space of the management intelligent terminal for the teacher and the user intelligent terminal of each student in the storage space. The storage space is used for storing all data and information in a class in a classroom, including public data and information that can be accessed by a teacher, all students, all microscopes, a server, and the like, and private data and information that can be individually accessed by the teacher and all students, respectively. The common data may be stored, for example, in a common storage space of the storage spaces. Private data and information are stored in the private storage subspace. The teacher and the students respectively access the storage space through the management intelligent terminal and the respective user intelligent terminals to acquire public data and information, and access the private storage subspace to access the private data and information. The private storage subspace can be accessed by an intelligent terminal except the owner of the private storage subspace on the premise of permission setting. For example, the teacher using the management intelligent terminal can access the private storage subspaces of all students, and can also access the private storage subspaces of specific students under the condition that the students set permission. The students can access the private storage subspace of the other side through the intelligent user terminal under the condition of setting the permission.
According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the storage space and the private storage subspace are based on the course allocation space size, storage location and access rights. Based on the organization of the lessons, the teacher may store in the storage space the common lesson courseware, microscope operating specifications and notes required for the lessons, demonstration display operations, images and data, other data available to the students in similar lessons, and the like. The teacher can put in the lesson preparation notes of the courses, the experimental data and images of the teacher and the like in the private storage subspace of the teacher. Students can put their own experimental data and images, course notes and related data in their own private storage subspaces. In the storage space and the private storage sub-space, independent folders can be automatically set according to each course so as to share the contents in the folders to other people during the course.
For file and data sharing, the teacher can set the access rights of the storage space and the private storage subspace to the teacher and students based on the requirements and grouping conditions of the courses. When there is a student group, the access rights of the storage space and the private storage subspace may be set for the group. When files and data in the storage space and the private storage subspace are stored in the form of folders and the like, different access rights can be set for different folders. The students can also set their own private storage subspace access rights to other students and teachers based on the course. Teachers and students may also have the right to store public data and information in the storage space into their private storage sub-space and to store the contents of the private storage sub-space into the storage space as public data.
The storage space and the private storage subspace may be located on a storage device of a server of the visual education system or on a separate database or storage device, or may be located in other locations, for example, on a cloud storage. The cloud storage may include a public cloud and a private cloud. The configuration of the storage space and the private storage sub-space is set based on the requirements of the course. In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the private storage subspace may be provided in a storage device inside the teacher's management smart terminal and the student's user smart terminals. The management intelligent terminal and the user intelligent terminal can perform one-way or two-way synchronization on the data in the private storage subspace and the data in the local storage device in a local synchronization or cloud synchronization mode.
As shown in fig. 14, the teacher, after logging in, will display all previous and current lesson folders under the server-side root directory of the document page. The teacher selects a folder to enter, for example, the folder corresponding to the ongoing lesson "Test Class", as shown in fig. 15, and the subfolders listed below the folder are folders of all members of the current lesson. The files uploaded by the members to the course server side are all displayed in the respective folders. The teacher has the right to upload or download files to all subfolders. Fig. 16 shows the teacher uploading of files into his folder in the class.
If the login account is a student, all course folders participated by the student are displayed under the root directory of the server side, and files uploaded by the student or a teacher are displayed in each course subfolder.
FIG. 17 shows a file window opened by the teacher at the lesson interface. Displayed to the left of the window are folders of all members of the current course. The teacher clicks on any folder, and all the files in the folder are displayed on the right side of the window. The teacher selects the file and then clicks the send button so the file is automatically downloaded in the target student's local folder. If the operation is performed in the whole classroom range, the target students are all online students; if operating at the group level, the target student is all online students of the group; if operated on a single student, the target student is the student.
After the classroom setup and setup is complete, the teacher may return to the classroom course selection interface to select the course to begin, as shown in FIG. 18. The selection interface is visible only to the logged-in teacher.
After entering the classroom sub-interface for the selected course, the teacher may view the course condition. After the geometric distribution and the state of the microscope and the students meet the requirements of the course, the teacher can send a command of starting the course to the user intelligent terminal of the student, and the student starts to operate the microscope under the guidance of the teacher. For example, the teacher may instantiate by sending his own microscope procedures, parameters and images to the student's user intelligent terminal, and may also ask the student to complete the experiment by accessing public lesson courseware stored in the storage space or content stored in the teacher's private storage sub-space.
The user interface of the student's user smart terminal is shown in fig. 19, for example. The student can log in the user intelligent terminal in the course to participate in the course, and use at least one microscope corresponding to the user intelligent terminal. During the course, the student may choose to display the microscope's observations as a real-time video as shown in function 901, or may choose to display the microscope's observations as an image as shown in function 902. In addition, the student can click the hands-lifting icon 903 in the user interface to send a hands-lifting request to the teacher for asking for questions, asking questions or indicating the completion of the experiment and other request functions. The user interface of the user intelligent terminal can also comprise functions of accessing a storage space and a private storage subspace, selecting a microscope, recording experimental data, performing social interaction and the like.
During the course, the teacher can monitor the operation condition of the student on the microscope, the states of the student and the microscope in real time through the management intelligent terminal, and receive the hand-raising request of the student. Referring to fig. 20, the user intelligent terminal of each student and the state of the microscope operated by the student are presented on the user interface of the teacher's management intelligent terminal. By monitoring the state, the teacher knows the learning condition of the students in the course in real time and sends control commands to the students and the microscope actively or in response to corresponding events.
For example, in the user interface shown in fig. 20, the icon of the student's user smart terminal 1001 becomes a "hands up" icon indicating that the student having the user smart terminal 1001 selects a "hands up" function on his user smart terminal to send a hands up request to the teacher. At the same time, the icon of the student's user smart terminal 1002 also becomes a "hands up" icon, indicating that the student also sends a hands up request to the teacher. For the two hand-lifting requests, the teacher can further judge the specific purpose of the hand-lifting request according to the state of the microscope corresponding to the user intelligent terminal. For example, the identifier in the upper right corner of the user intelligent terminal 1001 is red, which indicates that the student corresponding to the user intelligent terminal 1001 does not operate the microscope or the microscope is not in an abnormal state (since the student sends a request for holding hands, the situation that the student is not online is excluded), and the teacher may preliminarily determine that the student may have a problem in the process of operating the microscope and the teacher needs to check or guide the problem. For another example, if the identifier of the user intelligent terminal 1002 is green, and identifies that the student corresponding to the user intelligent terminal is operating the microscope and/or the microscope is in a normal state, the teacher may preliminarily determine that the student has completed the experiment or has a problem and needs to ask a question.
According to the embodiment of the present disclosure shown in fig. 21, if the teacher determines that the student of the user intelligent terminal 1002 has completed the operation of the microscope and obtained the experiment result, the teacher may share or broadcast the real-time video and image 1101 of the state of the microscope and the experiment result presented on the user intelligent terminal 1002 of the student to the user intelligent terminals of other students by command on the user interface of the management intelligent terminal, or inform other students to acquire corresponding information by accessing the user intelligent terminals 1002 of the student who completed the experiment. The teacher can also switch between different command ranges in a simple manner. For example, the teacher may transmit information and data of the user intelligent terminals 1002 of the students who completed the experiment to a specific student by transmitting a command, the specific student may group or all the students, and may individually transmit information and data of the user intelligent terminals 1002 of the students who completed the experiment to the student who transmitted the request in response to the request of a certain student.
After the course is finished, the student leaves the course, and the intelligent user terminal of the student is disconnected or logged off from the course. The students can also use the user intelligent terminals to log in or connect into the historical courses after the courses, access the contents in the private storage subspaces of the students and access the data such as course courseware shared in the storage spaces of the historical courses under the permission. According to some embodiments, students may also share data of their respective private storage subspaces for post-session communication, such as completing post-session tasks.
For teachers, there are more rights than students after the course ends. For example, the teacher may still have access to public data in the storage space in the historical lesson and data of the student's private storage subspace after the lesson to facilitate post-lesson analysis. The teacher may also arrange post-lesson assignments by putting new programs or data into the students' private storage sub-spaces after lessons. However, the system setup teacher generally has access to only the contents of the storage space and private storage sub-space corresponding to his/her course, and does not have access to the storage space and private storage sub-space of other courses not related to him/her. Such permission setting can protect the privacy of the student. Also, students have different privacy settings in different courses, they have different private storage subspaces for different courses or have folders for different courses in their own private storage subspaces. Private storage subspaces between different students attending the same class, as well as between students attending different classes, are generally not shared without specific access permissions set.
According to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the above-described functions and settings for visual teaching in a classroom can be an integrated function of microscope imaging software. For convenience of operation and clear prompt, the user interface of each intelligent terminal can highlight the function of the icon of a specific function in an increasing or dynamic mode, or adopt a prompt or warning information function such as an "Attention" mode to attract the Attention of a user. According to some embodiments, icons with low frequency of use may also be hidden or placed in a more subordinate user interface menu. Multimedia training documents or courses like "How-to" may also be provided in the user interface for the user to learn.
According to the visual teaching method and the visual teaching system, a clear solution which combines courses, microscopes and students and is oriented to the courses and the students is provided, the problem that a teacher cannot clearly obtain real layout in a classroom and the corresponding relation between the students and a teaching device in the traditional solution is solved, the defect that the teacher cannot adjust visual classroom arrangement and data sharing aiming at a specific course is overcome, the traditional multimedia teaching scheme has a privacy problem, and more information is provided for course participants in the classroom.
In the class, interaction is performed between users (teachers and students) of the intelligent terminal software without performing interaction based on a microscope respectively, and file access and sharing of the storage space and commands are transmitted between the user equipment and the management equipment instead of being transmitted through the microscope. The server performs the function of relaying between the various parts. The teacher may prepare the lessons in real classrooms, setting up specific visual classroom environments from different lessons to map the lessons with lessons in real classrooms. The teacher can monitor teaching device and student's state during at class, can share course content and data between the classroom through the form of grouping, can also guarantee course participant's privacy through the authority management of teaching device and storage space, course easy operation and have bigger flexibility.
According to the visual teaching integration solution of the embodiment of the disclosure, all functions are realized in software, a smooth working flow can be realized, and the advantages of interconnectivity and cooperation are provided. The classroom concept can support larger-scale classrooms, and it becomes easier to visualize the layout in the classroom and assign access rights to teaching devices such as microscopes. By introducing the concept of grouping, the grouping discussion, the grouping task, the grouping file sharing and management and the like are more efficient.
According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a method for visual instruction is proposed as shown in fig. 22, comprising the steps of:
s1210: establishing a classroom; and
s1220: the lessons are completed on a classroom basis.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a device for visual teaching is also presented, as shown in fig. 23. The visual tutorial apparatus 1300 can include at least one tutorial device 1330; at least one user intelligent terminal 1320, each user intelligent terminal operating a corresponding teaching device 1330 and acquiring a status of the corresponding teaching device 1330; the administrative smart terminal 1310 is configured to establish a classroom including the user smart terminal 1320 and the teaching device 1330 and complete a course based on the classroom. The visual tutorial device 1300 may also include a server 1340 configured to operate a classroom.
