Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a learning support system using a computer and a network, and more particularly to a scoring evaluation support system for supporting efficient test scoring.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A student's knowledge level and understanding level are measured by scoring and summing up test response results. The test questions used at this time include questions that can be scored by simply comparing answers to predetermined correct answers, such as multiple choice questions and fill-in-the-blank questions, and questions that students can freely write in the answer column. As described above, there are some human scoring systems that scoring according to the content and, in some cases, need to describe a comment.

[0003] The former scoring can be automatically performed by a computer (automatic scoring), but the latter is performed by a human (manual scoring).

[0004]

Conventionally, whether to perform automatic scoring or manual scoring has been determined for each test. In other words, it is impossible to introduce a problem that requires manual scoring in a test that performs automatic scoring, and in a test that performs manual scoring, it is necessary to manually scor even a problem that can be automatically scored.

[0005] Further, when performing manual scoring, the grader grades one answer for each test of each student for the answer inputted by the student. Therefore, the grader must grade one student after completing the grade, starting with the first question, understanding all the questions and changing the thinking one after another according to the questions. Was not.

[0006] Furthermore, when there are a large number of students, it is highly possible that the same answer exists for the same question, but in this case, it is necessary to perform a scoring operation completely separately, which is inefficient. Was.

An object of the present invention is to provide a scoring evaluation support device capable of efficiently scoring a test.

[0008]

In order to achieve the above object, according to the first aspect of the present invention, first, an answer that can be automatically graded is automatically graded by comparing the answer inputted by the student with the correct answer. This eliminates the need for the grader to grade questions that can be graded automatically, thereby improving the grader's scoring efficiency. In addition, ungraded answers are classified by question, not by student, and presented to the grader, and the grader can continuously score the same question for each presented question, further improving efficiency. .

According to a second aspect of the present invention, when listing ungraded answers for each student or each question, item selection information is added, and the system manages the selection and cancellation of items by the grader. Can perform the scoring work in cooperation without scoring the same question.

[0010] In claim 3, by treating a plurality of identical answers as one answer, it is possible to complete the scoring work only once, thereby further improving efficiency.

Further, in claim 4, the scoring evaluation information input by the grader and the answer are stored as a pair and compared with the unscored answer, so that it is impossible to automatically score only the correct answer. Of the possible answers, those that have the same content as in the past can be automatically scored, further improving efficiency.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of a scoring evaluation support apparatus according to the present invention. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes a student computer, 2 denotes an output device of the student computer 1,
3 is an input device of the student computer 1, 4 is a computer for the grader, 5 is an output device of the grader computer 4, 6 is an input device of the grader computer 4, 7 is a server computer, and 8 is learning information. , 9 is the response information history,
10 controls the correct answer information, 11 controls whether the answer information is collated with the correct answer information for scoring, whether the answer information is collated with the history of the scoring information to perform scoring, or whether the answer information is presented to the output device of the grader. 12 is a history of automatic scoring results, 13 is a history of scoring evaluation information, 14 is ungraded answer information, and 15 is a network.

In this embodiment, the answer information history 9, the correct answer information 10, the scoring evaluation support control program 11,
Although the history 12 of the automatic grading result, the history 13 of the grading evaluation information, and the learning information 14 of the non-grading are all intensively stored in the server 7, these are distributed to the grading computer 4 or the student computer 1. May be accommodated.

FIGS. 2 and 3 show the outline of the flow of the scoring evaluation support control program.

In such a configuration, when the answer information of the test is input from the input device 3 of the student computer 1 and transmitted to the server computer 7 via the network 15 (s1), this is referred to as the correct answer information 10. Checking (s2) and checking whether correct / incorrect is possible (s2)
3) If the judgment is possible, the judgment result is transmitted to the student computer 1 and output to the output device 2 (s4), at the same time, the answer information is recorded in the answer information history 8, and the judgment result is recorded in the automatic scoring information. (S)
5).

At this time, if it is impossible to judge correctness, the answer information is stored in the ungraded answer information 14 (s
6). At this time, the answer information of each student is collated, and the students having the same answer information are grouped into one group (for each question), so that duplication in subsequent work and operation can be avoided. Here, the rules for the same answer information are appropriately determined according to the type of the question. For example, in a mathematical problem, punctuation marks, line feeds, and the presence or absence of a space are regarded as the same, but in a Japanese language, they are not regarded as the same, and various rules can be considered.

Next, the unscored answer information 14 and the history 13 of the scoring evaluation information are collated (s7), and the history 1 of the scoring evaluation information is compared.
When the same information as the unscored answer information 14 exists in Step 3 (s8), the scoring evaluation information in the history 13 of the scoring evaluation information is transferred to the student computer 1 as a result of the scoring process of the unscored answer information 14. The response information is transmitted and output to the output device 3 (s9), and at the same time, the response information is
The result of the scoring process is stored in the history 13 of the scoring evaluation information (s10). Further, the processed answer information is deleted from the unscored answer information 14 (s11).

At this time, if the ungraded answer information 14 remains (s12), a question (ungraded question information) having the ungraded answer information 14 is transmitted to the grader's computer 4 and its output device is output. 5 (s13).

FIG. 4 shows an example of an output screen of the grader's computer. In the figure, reference numeral 21 denotes a list of questions (tests) having ungraded answer information, and reference numeral 22 denotes ungraded answer information in the selected question. A list of students, 23 is a grading process application flag for selecting a plurality of students having similar answers to which the same grading evaluation information should be sent, 24 is a response information display column, 25 is a grading evaluation information input column, Reference numeral 26 denotes a transmission button for applying the input scoring evaluation information to the learning information of the selected student and outputting and displaying the information on the output device 2 of the student computer 1.

In the grader computer 4, when the grader selects one of the items displayed in the list 21 of questions having ungraded answer information (s14), the student corresponding to the selected question is selected. The list information is transmitted to the grader's computer 4, and the student list 22 and the scoring process application flag 23
Is output (displayed) (s15). Here, the students having the same answer information described above are treated and displayed as one group.

At this time, test item selection information indicating that the question is being graded is also transmitted to the grader's computer 4, and the display of the selected item (question) in the question list 21 is changed. (Changed to underlined oblique characters in FIG. 4) (s15).

If there are a plurality of grader computers 4, the test item selection information is also sent to all other grader computers 4, and the test item is selected except for the grader computer 4 which initially selected the question. You will not be able to do it.

First, in the grader's computer 4 that has selected the question, the grader cancels the selection in order to interrupt the grade or grade another test item (s16).
Then, the selection release information for the question being graded is transmitted to all the grader computers 4, and the test item selection information is released (s17). This allows the grader to grade the test item on the other grader's computer 4, so that the test item can be selected.

At this time, the display of the test item selected by the user and the display of the test item selected by another grader are different from each other. For example, the test item selected by the user is underlined characters, The test items being selected by the grader are displayed in floating characters, so that the grader can clearly identify the selected and unselectable items.

Next, in the computer 4 for the grader,
When the grader selects a student (group) from the ungraded student list 22 (s18), answer information corresponding to the selected student is transmitted to the grader computer 4 and output to the answer information display field 24. At the same time (displayed) (s19), the display of the selected student in the student list 22 is changed (changed to underlined characters in FIG. 4). By changing the student to be selected, the answer information of each student can be displayed one after another in the answer information display column 24. At this time, the scoring process application flag 23 of the student having a similar answer is checked. By doing so, the same scoring evaluation information can be sent.

Thereafter, in the grader computer 4, the grader looks at the content of each student's response, inputs a grade or a comment into the grade evaluation information entry field 25 (s20), and further operates the send button 26 (s21). ), And sends the scoring evaluation information to the student computer 1 corresponding to all the students for which the scoring process application flag 23 has been checked and outputs it to the output device 2 (s22). 8 and the score evaluation information is accumulated in the history 13 of the score evaluation information (s23).

Finally, the processed answer information is deleted from the ungraded answer information 14 (s24), and the ungraded answer information 14 is deleted.
If remains (s25), the above-described processing is repeated.

[0028]

As described above, according to the present invention,
Automatic scoring can be performed for answers to questions for which correctness can be determined based on pre-input correct answer information, and automatic scoring can be performed for questions that can be graded based on scoring history information. In addition, it is possible to simultaneously score the answers having the same content by scoring the answers to the questions that cannot be automatically graded for each question. In addition, it is possible for the grader to continuously grade the same question, thereby improving the scoring efficiency. As described above, the scoring efficiency of the grader can be greatly improved.
