Description

      The present invention relates to a system for managing entrance / exit of a student at a school / learning school using a personal authentication ID and distributing entrance / exit information to a designated portable terminal.

Private schools and cram schools generally offer classes after the closing hours of elementary school, junior high school, and high school. Students who go to a cram school will go home once after the closing hours of elementary school, junior high school, and high school, then go home again, go to a cram school, and return home after classes at the cram school. The start time of the cram school is from 16:00 to 19:00, and the end time is from 19:00 to 21:00. The students of the cram school are mainly university students from the third grade of elementary school.

      In this way, the cram school mainly teaches children in the evening and at night, especially for elementary and junior high school students, it is important for parents to clarify where they are while they are away from home.

It is important for parents to clarify where they are when they leave their homes, especially when they are young, such as kindergartens, elementary schools, junior high schools, etc. It is a thing.

      In addition, for parents who pick up their children at the end of the last class of the cram school, the daily end time will vary depending on the availability of supplementary lessons, etc., so they will arrive before the end or wait for a while after the end It is often inconvenient.

In addition, parents often attend children's commuting even in kindergartens, elementary schools, junior high schools, etc., where the working hours are daytime, and due to sudden factors such as supplementary training, the class end time of the day varies depending on the student There is the same inconvenience as the pick-up at the school.

      As a measure to improve these problems, a private company other than the school or study school provides a child with a mobile device so that they can contact each other and know where they are when they are out. In some cases, the location information providing service using GPS is used. However, with a mobile terminal, until the child reports a false statement, with GPS, the guardian himself or herself repeatedly for confirmation. You must have access to the service provider's database.

      Also, the GPS method cannot be used to know the end time of the class at the school or school. Even if a child has a portable terminal, the communication may be forgotten and cannot be a reliable means.

In order to solve these problems, it is sufficient to manage each student's entrance to and exit from the school / school, and to report the time of each entry, but use a personal authentication device such as an IC card. Most of the entrance / exit systems that have been used are limited entry / exit management systems for specific places, which are not suitable for entrance / exit management for students attending schools and cram schools. Information cannot be distributed elsewhere.

The problem to be solved is that there is anxiety and inconvenience caused by the fact that students attending school / learning cram school are not transmitted to parents / guardians in real time.

  In the present invention, each student has a unique ID as a personal authentication device, and the ID is recognized by a dedicated reader connected to a computer. Parents who have automatically registered student entrance / exit information in a cram school, managed on a server where a dedicated program is stored, and registered in advance as attendance / departure school information in real time via an Internet server By using the mail function to the mobile terminal of the automatic delivery through the Internet line, the class information of the class that can be referred to the parent and school information and delivery log information from the mobile terminal or the computer connected to the Internet The purpose is to provide a system for history management for each individual.

The present invention also acquires the start time of the last class of the day by recognizing the ID by a dedicated reader using a dedicated teacher / school cram school ID card with a unique ID recorded by the teacher. Based on this information, a scheduled guidance for class end time is created on the server where the dedicated program is stored, and the mail function is used via the Internet server to a guardian's mobile terminal registered in advance in real time. Another object of the present invention is to provide a system for automatic distribution via an Internet line.

It is another object of the present invention to provide a system in which a parent can inquire and refer to not only the scheduled class end time guidance but also a class schedule and schedule from a portable terminal or a computer connected to the Internet.

      According to the present invention, each student has a student ID card with a unique ID recorded as a personal authentication device, and the ID is recognized by a dedicated reader connected to a computer. Information on entrance / exit of students to schools / schools is automatically acquired and managed by a server where a dedicated program is stored, and the entrance / exit information is pre-registered in real-time as school attendance information via an Internet server. By using the mail function to automatically distribute to a guardian's mobile terminal via the Internet line, the guardian can know in real time the fact that the child has arrived at the school / learning school.

In addition, the start time of the last class of the day is obtained by recognizing the ID by the dedicated reader using the school / learning school dedicated teacher ID that records the unique ID possessed by the teacher. Based on the above, we will create a scheduled time guidance for the day on the server where the dedicated program is stored, and connect the Internet line via the Internet server to the guardian's mobile terminal registered in real time using the mail function. Through the automatic distribution, the guardian who picks up the child can arrive at the school / learning school at an appropriate time.

Furthermore, by organizing and storing these school attendance information as logs for a certain period of time using a management computer installed at the school / school, the parents can use their mobile terminals or home computers to connect their children via the Internet line. It can be referred to as a record of attending school.

      A student ID card with a unique ID recorded is assigned to each student as a personal authentication device, and a teacher ID card with a unique ID is recorded with the teacher in charge of the class. These are read in a timely and appropriate place with a dedicated reader, the database is searched using the ID number as a key, and the input time of the ID number is added to the extracted data as an attribute, or processed with dedicated software, and the data is further processed. The school / study school is the sender, and at least the sender name, contact information, etc. are added to the email format. As information on school attendance at the cram school, the recognition information of the teacher / department card dedicated to the cram school owned by the teacher is sent via the Internet server as the scheduled class end time information for that day. Of parents have been registered in advance in real-time to the mobile terminal using the mail function to realize the resolve the problem by building a system that automatically delivered via the Internet.

      The school / school cram school student ID card and school / school cram school teacher ID card recorded with a unique ID are electronically readable, for example, those with a barcode, contact type with a built-in IC chip, or not. Contact IC cards can be used.

In the embodiment, a non-contact type IC card with a built-in non-contact type IC tag is used for the school / school cram school student card and the school / school cram school teacher card in which the unique ID is recorded. Does not limit non-contact type IC cards with built-in non-contact type IC tags as school / school cram school student cards and school / school cram school teacher cards.

      FIG. 1 is an overall view of the system of the present invention. 1 is a student / department-only student ID card with a non-contact IC tag carried by a student, and 2 is a teacher of a school / learning school or This is a dedicated teacher / school cram teacher ID card with a built-in non-contact IC tag tag possessed by the instructor. 3a, 3b, and 3c are one or more dedicated non-contacts installed at necessary locations in the school / learning school.

The computer also includes a student database (13 in FIG. 3), a teacher database (14 in FIG. 3), a timetable database (15 in FIG. 3), a school attendance information log database (16 in FIG. 3), and a scheduled class end time. A guidance log database (17 in FIG. 3) is stored. Of course, this computer is installed with a set of basic software that controls the basic operation of the computer. Reference numeral 5 denotes an Internet server installed in a school / learning school, which stores a scheduled class end time guidance log database (19 in FIG. 3). Reference numeral 6 denotes a portable terminal that is owned by a guardian and registered as a delivery destination of 5, and 7 is a home main server (4a) owned by the guardian.

An example of the distribution of school attendance information and browsing of school attendance records will now be described.

      Each student who attends a school or cram school has a student ID card (1). This student ID card incorporates a non-contact type IC tag in which a circuit composed of an IC chip, a memory chip and an antenna is arranged.

The school / school cram school student ID (1) may have a card shape as shown in FIG. 1, a circular button shape, or other shapes.

      Student / School Cram Dedicated Student ID (1) A unique ID is stored in the internal memory chip. This memory chip may be either a rewritable type or a non-rewritable type.

      At least one dedicated non-contact type IC tag reader (3a in FIG. 1) is arranged at the entrance of the school / learning school or the entrance of the classroom. The reader (3a) is connected to the main server (4a) or the client computer (4b). The main server (4a) or the client computer (4b) is in a waiting state for entrance management (8 in FIG. 2) when the student goes to school. This operation can be performed by either the main server (4a) or the client computer (4b).

      When the student arrives at the school / learning school, the student ID card (1) held by the reader (3a) installed at the entrance of the school / learning school or the classroom is brought closer to the reader (3a) until the authentication sound is heard. . If a reader with a monitor function is adopted or a monitor is installed near the reader (3a), the name of the student and various information on admission confirmation are displayed, and the student himself can confirm admission.

      When the ID number stored in the student ID card (1) is input from the reader (3a), the student information retrieved from the student database (13) with the ID number, the ID number input time, and the security code are part of the attribute. Is automatically generated and stored as school attendance information in the school attendance information log database (16) inside the main server (4a).

The school attendance information is immediately written in a temporary file (18) of the Internet server (5). The Internet server (5) searches and calls the address of the mobile terminal of the data distribution destination from the distribution destination database (19) using the student ID number of the school attendance information as a key.

At the same time, the mail software in the Internet server (5) creates a mail in which the school attendance distribution data is written based on the school attendance information in the temporary file (18). The school attendance data includes at least the name of the delivery school, the contact information of the school, the student's name and date, the name of the delivery guardian, and the school attendance time (hours and minutes).

      The mail software in the Internet server (5) compares the guardian name and the security code used for data collation with the guardian name and the security code in the school attendance information. After confirming the match, the mail is delivered to the delivery address.

After the distribution, distribution completion log information from the Internet server (5) is added to the data in the school attendance information log database (16) in the main server (4a).

      Before the class, the main server (4a) to which the reader (3a) set in the standby for class management (10 in FIG. 2) is connected is connected to the main server (4a) or the client computer (4b). Is set as a stand-by for exit management (9 in FIG. 2). This operation can be performed by either the main server (4a) or the client computer (4b).

      After the class is finished, the student brings the student ID card (1) possessed by the reader installed at the entrance of the school / learning school or the entrance of the classroom close to the reader (3a) until an authentication sound is heard. If a reader with a monitor function is adopted or a monitor is installed near the reader (3a), the student's name and a sign for confirming the exit are displayed, and the student can also confirm the exit.

      When the ID number stored in the student ID card (1) is input from the reader (3a), the student information searched by the ID number, the ID number input time, and the data having the security code as part of the attribute are automatically generated. The stored information is stored in the main school (4a) ascending / descending school information log database (16).

The school information is immediately written to a temporary file (18) of the Internet server (5). The Internet server (5) searches and calls the address of the mobile terminal of the data distribution destination from the distribution destination database (19) using the student ID number of the school information as a key.

At the same time, the mail software in the Internet server (5) creates a mail describing the school delivery data based on the school information in the temporary file (18). The school delivery data includes at least the name of the delivery school, the contact information of the school, the student's name and date, the name of the delivery guardian, and the school hours (hours and minutes).

      The mail software in the Internet server (5) compares the guardian name and the security code used for data collation with the guardian name and the security code in the school information. After confirming the match, the mail is delivered to the delivery address.

After the distribution, distribution completion log information from the Internet server (5) is added to the data in the school attendance information log database (16) in the main server (4a).

      Next, an embodiment will be described in which the scheduled lesson time is automatically distributed to the guardian's mobile terminal using the mail function.

Each teacher at a school or cram school will have a school / cram school teacher card (2). This teacher ID incorporates a non-contact type IC tag in which a circuit composed of an IC chip, a memory chip and an antenna is arranged.

The shape of the school / school cram teacher ID may be a circular button shape as shown in Fig. 1 or a card shape or other shapes.

      A unique ID is stored in the memory chip inside the school / school cram school teacher card. This memory chip may be either a rewritable type or a non-rewritable type.

      At least one dedicated non-contact IC tag reader (3b in FIG. 1) is arranged in the classroom of the school / school. The reader (3b) is connected to the main server (4a) or the client computer (4b). This server (4a) or client computer (4b) is in a waiting state for entrance management (8 in FIG. 2) until the final class starts. The class management standby state (10 in FIG. 2) is set immediately before the start of the final class. This operation can be performed by either the main server (4a) or the client computer (4b).

The teacher closes the teacher ID (2) possessed by the reader (3b) installed in the classroom platform immediately before the start of the final class until the authentication sound is heard. If a reader with a monitor function is adopted or a monitor is installed near the reader (3b), various information for confirming the start of the final project is displayed, and the teacher himself can also confirm.

      When the ID number stored in the teacher ID (2) is input from the reader (3b), the timetable information retrieved from the timetable database (15) with the ID number is automatically generated and the data is automatically generated. It is stored as scheduled lesson time information in the scheduled lesson time guidance log database (17) inside the server (4a).

The scheduled class end time information is immediately written out to the Internet server (5). The Internet server (5) retrieves / calls the address of the portable terminal of the data distribution destination corresponding to all the student ID numbers of the school attendance information from the distribution destination database (19).

At the same time, the mail software in the Internet server (5) is used to create an email describing the scheduled class end time information. This data includes at least the name of the distribution school, the contact information of the school, the name and date of the student, the name of the distribution guardian, and the scheduled class end time (hours and minutes).

      The mail software in the Internet server (5) simultaneously distributes the mail to the delivery destination address after confirming the match to all the delivery destination addresses extracted in the previous search.

After the distribution, distribution completion log information from the Internet server (5) is added to the data in the scheduled class completion time guidance log database (17) in the main server (4a).

By installing a client computer (4b) in each classroom, attendees and absentees can be managed before the start of each class. This requires an attendance management program (not shown in the figure) to be installed on the main computer (4a).

In this attendance management program, a list of student attendance information entered on that day is displayed. Attendees and absentees are displayed in different colors, and attendees are shown the time when the student ID was read.

By using this function and confirming attendance before the lesson starts, it is possible to know the existence of students who have attended but failed to confirm admission with their student ID. At that time, these students can confirm the admission with the student ID card and distribute the school attendance information mail that has not been notified to the parents.

      The program also has a function to display a list of people who have left the school, and when all students have returned home.

      When all the students leave, the students who have failed to confirm the exit with the student ID card are in an unleaved state. With regard to these students, the exit information processing that has not been notified to the parents can be delivered by performing the exit process with the authority of the person having the system administrator code.

In addition, by setting the timetable database and the teacher database using the teacher ID as a key, a weekly schedule table by class and a work schedule by teacher can be created.

Furthermore, the following information can be used by performing a daily totaling process of school attendance information.

      As a school / learning school, it is possible to create a management table of student attendance status for a certain period of time.

      Parents can view individual school attendance and weekly schedules on their home computers via the Internet.

In addition, the attendance and attendance school information log database (16) can identify individual students by ID numbers, so a data attribute can be provided for each student in the data attribute, and comments regarding individual students can be entered in this field as needed. By doing, it becomes a report of the learning guidance status to parents.

Furthermore, a guardian entry column can be provided in the data attribute.

The guardian can view the student guidance column from the home computer via the Internet line at any time. In addition, a request as a guardian can be written in the guardian entry field.

The personal information in the attendance and attendance school information log database (16) can also be accessed by a guardian entering an ID from a homepage opened by a school / learning school.

      The school attendance information of students attending schools and cram schools that conduct classes in the evening and at night arrives under the guardian in real time, leading to the peace of mind of the guardian. In addition, there is also an effect of reducing unnecessary visits when students return home.

      The time at the end of the class may vary depending on the day depending on whether or not there is a repair class. For parents who pick up students, knowing the end time of the last class of the day will help to effectively use the time.
