  Next, with reference to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, setting of information necessary for evaluation of the group discussion by the discussion evaluation management terminal 100 will be described. First, FIG. 3 shows an example of the material 150 used in the group discussion. Here, the material 150 may be a text created by word processing software, or may be a text read by a scanner of an image forming apparatus and recognized by an OCR (Optical Character Reader).

  Reference signs a1 to c1 shown in the material 150 indicate markers indicating selection of keywords a to c necessary for evaluation of the group discussion. When adding the markers a1 to c1 to the theme material 150, for example, the keyboard 102 or the mouse 103 is operated in a state where the theme material 150 is displayed on the display unit 104, and the character strings to be used as the keywords a to c are selected. In the case of text recognized by OCR, adding markers a1 to c1 on the display unit 104 can be omitted by adding markers a1 to c1 to a document (not shown) in advance. Further, the color of the marker a1 added to the theme material 150 is red, the color of the marker b1 is blue, and the color of the marker c1 is green. Thus, the importance of each keyword ac can be shown by changing the color of the markers a1-c1. Moreover, the importance of each keyword a-c can be shown with a weighting coefficient, for example like FIG.4 (b) mentioned later. In FIG. 3, the keywords a to c are selected by adding the markers a 1 to c 1. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the character string whose color is changed by changing the color of the character string itself is used as the keyword a to c. It is good also as c. Further, the character string itself may be surrounded by a frame for each color, and the character string surrounded by the frame may be used as the keywords ac.

  Next, the group discussion evaluation information generated by the discussion evaluation management terminal 100 will be described with reference to FIG. 4A shows the group discussion information 120, and FIG. 4B shows the weighting information 130 for the keywords a to c. First, the group discussion information 120 shown in FIG. 4A includes an item column 120a indicating a title, an item column 120b indicating a date, an item column 120c indicating a type, an item column 120d indicating a group name, and a keyword including a weighting factor. Item fields 120e to 120f indicating a to c are provided. Here, in the item columns 120a to 120d, the title, date / time, type, and group name are input by operating the keyboard 102 of the discussion evaluation management terminal 100 or the like. On the other hand, the contents corresponding to the color-specific markers a1 to c1 added to the subject material 150 are reflected in the item columns 120e to 120f. The evaluation setting management unit 116 reflects the contents corresponding to the color-specific markers a1 to c1 in the item columns 120e to 120f.

  In other words, the weighting coefficients based on the colors of the markers a1 to c1 indicate the importance of the keywords a to c, and are set as weighting information 130 shown in FIG. 4B, for example. Here, the red weighting factor is 1.0, the blue weighting factor is 0.8, the green weighting factor is 0.6, the yellow weighting factor is 0.4, and the purple weighting factor is 0.2. Suppose that In addition, about the value of each color and a weighting coefficient, it can change arbitrarily. The keyword a in the item field 120e, “Do not lie even if you become an adult” is a character string with the red marker a1 shown in FIG. The red weight coefficient is 1.0 as shown in FIG. The evaluation setting management unit 116 refers to the weighting information 130 in FIG. 4B, and based on the character string with the red marker a1 and the color of the marker a1 in FIG. The coefficient is acquired and registered in the item column 120e. Similarly, the evaluation setting management unit 116 refers to the weighting information 130 in FIG. 4B, and the character string that is the keyword b with the blue marker b1 in FIG. ) And the color of the marker b1, the keyword b and the weight coefficient (0.8) of the keyword b are acquired and registered in the item column 120f. Further, the evaluation setting management unit 116 refers to the weighting information 130 in FIG. 4B, and determines the character string (bad reputation) that is the keyword c with the green marker c1 in FIG. 3 and the color of the marker c1. The keyword c and the weight coefficient (0.6) of the keyword c are acquired based on the above and registered in the item column 120f.

  In addition, link information indicated by underline is added to the keywords a to c in the item columns 120e to 120f. For example, when an underlined keyword a is clicked with the mouse 103, a character string “Do not lie even if you become an adult” corresponding to the keyword a in the material 150 shown in FIG. 3 is displayed. Also, the weighting information 130 in FIG. 4B can be used in the evaluation of descriptive answers. That is, as with the material 150 of FIG. 3, the keywords a to c necessary for the evaluation can be set by adding the markers a1 to c1 to the character string of the model answer to the written answer.

  In the evaluation for the descriptive answer, for example, by adding the markers a1 to c1 shown in FIG. 3 to the character string of the model answer information (not shown), the evaluation setting management unit 116 describes the same as the group discussion information 120. Evaluation information including keywords a to c and weighting factors necessary for evaluation of the answer is created.

  Next, with reference to FIG. 5, the evaluation of the group discussion by the analysis apparatus 200 will be described. Here, FIG. 5A shows an example of evaluation in a group discussion, and FIG. 5B shows an example of evaluation in a descriptive answer. First, in FIG. 5A, the analysis result of the speech in the group discussion is shown by the analysis by the speech analysis unit 214. That is, the utterance analysis unit 214 obtains the material material information indicating the material material 150 of FIG. 3 from the discussion evaluation management terminal 100, the group discussion information 120 of FIG. 4A, and the speech recognition result of the speech recognition unit 213. Based on the utterance analysis. In this case, the speech analysis unit 214 analyzes how many keywords a to c of the group discussion information 120 are included in the speech recognition result of the speech recognition unit 213, for example. Further, the utterance analysis unit 214 refers to weighting factors corresponding to the keywords a to c in the group discussion information 120 and calculates an analysis value according to the number of appearances of the analyzed keywords a to c. That is, for example, 50 keywords a having a large weighting factor “do not lie even when grown up” are included in the speech recognition result, and 70 keywords c having a “bad reputation” having a small weighting factor are included. Suppose it was included. In this case, for example, by multiplying the number of occurrences of each of the keywords a and c by a weighting factor, an analysis value of 50 is obtained for the keyword a having a weighting factor of 1.0, and a keyword having a weighting factor of 0.6 An analytical value of 42 is obtained for c. Thereby, the analysis value of the keyword a with high importance becomes high. Then, the utterance analysis unit 214 is an analysis result on, for example, comprehension, expressiveness, aggressiveness, cooperation, etc., as shown in FIG. 5A, based on the analysis values based on the analysis results of the respective keywords a to c. Create a group discussion evaluation 230.

  FIG. 5B shows a description answer evaluation 240 created by the description analysis unit 215. The description analysis unit 215 compares the description response information (not shown) in the group discussion received from the group discussion terminal 300 with the model response information (not shown) received by the discussion evaluation management terminal 100, for example, for understanding and expressiveness. And a descriptive answer evaluation 240, which is the analysis result, is created. That is, by adding the markers a1 to c1 shown in FIG. 3 to the character string of the model answer information, the evaluation setting management unit 116 can provide the description answer in the same manner as the group discussion information 120 shown in FIG. Evaluation information including keywords a to c and weighting factors necessary for evaluation is created. Then, the description analysis unit 215 analyzes how many keywords a to c of the group discussion information 120 are included in the description response information, for example. Further, the description analysis unit 215 refers to the weight count corresponding to the keywords a to c in the group discussion information 120 and calculates an analysis value corresponding to the number of appearances of the analyzed keywords a to c. That is, the description analysis unit 215 calculates analysis values of the analyzed keywords a to c, for example, by multiplying the number of appearances of the keywords a to c by a weighting factor. The description analysis unit 215 compares the description response information (not shown) with the model response information (not shown), and further refers to the evaluation information including the weighting coefficient corresponding to the keywords a to c. Based on the analysis values based on the analysis results of -c, a description response evaluation 240 such as comprehension and expressiveness is created as shown in FIG. The graph showing the group discussion evaluation 230 and the descriptive answer evaluation 240 may be a bar graph, a pie chart, or a radar chart.

At this time, the speech analysis unit 214, for example, based on the text created by the speech recognition unit 213 and the keywords a to c in the item columns 120e to 120g of the group discussion information 120 in FIG. Analyze power, aggressiveness, and collaboration. Further, the utterance analysis unit 214 creates the group discussion evaluation 230 shown in FIG.

(Step S206)
The system control unit 218 determines whether the voice analysis has been completed.
In this case, the system control unit 218 determines that the speech analysis has not been completed if there is no notification from the speech analysis unit 214 indicating that the speech analysis has been completed (step S206: No).
In response to this, the system control unit 218 determines that the voice analysis has been completed if there is a notification from the speech analysis unit 214 indicating that the voice analysis has been completed (step S206: Yes), and proceeds to step S207.

(Step S207)
The system control unit 218 transmits the analysis result.
In this case, the system control unit 218 instructs the communication control unit 217 to transmit the group discussion evaluation 230 in FIG. 5A that is the analysis result created by the utterance analysis unit 214.
At this time, the communication control unit 217 transmits the group discussion evaluation 230 in FIG. 5A, which is the analysis result created by the utterance analysis unit 214, to the discussion evaluation management terminal 100.

  As described above, in this embodiment, the topic material 150 necessary for the group discussion or the model answer (material) (not shown) required for the group discussion is displayed on the display unit 104 of the discussion evaluation management terminal 100, and the material material 150 or A character string displayed in a color corresponding to the weight is extracted from a model answer (document) (not shown), and the evaluation setting management unit 116 sets the selected character string as keywords a to c for evaluation of the group discussion. Discussion information 120 is generated, and group discussion information 120 is transmitted to analysis apparatus 200 by system control unit 118. In addition, the evaluation setting management unit 116 adds weighting factors indicating weighting to the keywords a to c.

  Thereby, extraction of keywords a to c for evaluation of group discussion is performed by selecting a character string of the subject material 150 or a model answer (material) (not shown) by the keyboard 102 or the mouse 103 (operation unit), or marking a manuscript. This can be done by reading the material material 150 to which a marker is added with a pen or a model answer (material) (not shown), and by adding a weighting factor indicating weighting to the keywords a to c, Since the importance can be set, the setting work of the importance of the keywords a to c and the keywords a to c can be simplified.

  After step S104 shown in FIG. 6 and before executing step S105, the system control unit 118 may instruct the display control unit 115 to display the generated group discussion information 120 on the display unit 104. . In this case, when the keyword of the displayed group discussion information 120 is selected (for example, clicked on the screen), the system control unit 118 indicates the keyword selected in the material 150 to the display control unit 115. Display of the location (for example, page) may be instructed. Here, the system control unit 118 may accept the correction of the range and color of the markers a1 to c1 added to the displayed material 150 in accordance with the operation of the keyboard 102 and the mouse 103, or a new one. You may accept the addition of a simple marker. In this case, the process may be returned to step S101.

  Further, the specified values of the weighting factors added to the keywords a to c may be different depending on whether the keywords a to c are obtained from the speech recognition result and obtained from the model answer information.
