The test answer is received for each test ID, question ID, and question ID from the test taker terminal 3a after the test answer is input from the input device of the test taker terminal 3a to the user who is the test taker, and the user ID of the test taker is received. The question ID and the answer for each question ID are stored in the answer sheet information 24 using the test ID as a key. At this time, the examination control means 14 sets “examination scoring status” associated with the user ID and the examination ID as the examinee to “submitted”.

  The scoring control means 15 extracts the test ID that can be scored by the scorer from the scoring authority information 25 and transmits the test answer from the answer sheet information 24 to the scorer terminal 4a based on the extracted test ID. The test scoring result is received from the tester terminal 4a, and the scoring result is stored in the answer sheet information 24 in association with the user ID and test ID of the test taker.

  Specifically, for example, after a user who is a grader is authenticated by the authenticating means 13, when the test ID associated with the user is displayed on the grader terminal 4 a, the user will see that the “examination scoring status” is “scoring” For a test that has not been completed, a score request including a test ID is transmitted to the test providing server 1 from the scorer terminal 4a. When the scoring control means 15 receives a scoring request from the grader terminal 4a, the question ID associated with the test ID included in the test request, the question sentence, the question ID associated with the question ID, the question ID, and the question A sentence or the like is extracted, and the user ID, question ID, question ID, and answer of the examinee associated with the test ID are extracted from the answer sheet information 24 and transmitted to the grader terminal 4a. At this time, the scoring control means 15 sets the “test scoring status” associated with the user ID and the test ID as the test taker to “scoring”. After letting the user who is the grader input the scoring results for the questions and answers from the input device of the grader terminal 4a, for each test ID, examinee's user ID, question ID, question ID from the grader terminal 4a The test scoring result is received, and the question ID and the scoring result for each question ID are stored in the answer sheet information 24 using the user ID and test ID of the examinee as keys. Furthermore, when an instruction to confirm the scoring result for the question ID is given from the input device of the scorer terminal 4a, the “scoring confirmation flag” is set to “true”. Further, when the scoring confirmation flags of all question IDs associated with the user ID and the test ID of the examinee are set to “true”, the “examination scoring status” is set to “scoring end”.

  The scoring result providing means 16 extracts the scoring result of the test associated with the user ID of the test taker from the answer sheet information 24 and transmits it to the test taker terminal 3a.

  The tabulation unit 17 provides the administrator terminal 5 with a summary of test results including the average score, the highest score, the lowest score, and the like for the test performed by the test providing system according to the first embodiment of the present invention. It is a means for transmitting individual data on the answers and scoring results of examinees.

  The management means 18 includes user information 22 that stores a user ID that identifies a user who is one of a test taker, a grader, and an administrator, and test information 23 that associates a test ID that identifies a test with a test question. And answer sheet information 24 in which the user ID of the examinee and the test ID that can be taken by the examiner are associated with each other, scoring authority information 25 in which the user ID of the grader and the test ID that can be graded by the grader are associated, and the like. Store in the storage device. Specifically, registration / change / deletion of user information of the test providing system according to the first embodiment of the present invention, registration / change / deletion of test questions to the test providing system, examinees, scorers, management Set the association between the tester and the test. In this example, the case where the administrator terminal 5 is set via the communication network 6 has been described. However, the setting may be made directly from the input device of the test providing server 1 without using the web interface providing unit 11.
