It has a second scroll bar 449 and the like.

The layout setting area 45 is an area in which the layout of the second display area 35 is displayed according to the operation of the instructor. In the illustrated example, the second template image 412, which is the template 2, is selected in the template selection area 41. Then, the area where the block can be arranged is determined according to the selected second template image 412. In the illustrated example, according to the second template image 412, the upper and lower blocks are arranged in two stages, the upper stage is the first designated area 453 which is one block, and the lower stage is the second designated area 455 and the third designation which are two blocks. It is divided into regions 457 and arranged. The fixed area 451 is an area corresponding to the first display area 33 (see FIG. 3) on the training screen LS, and the instructor cannot change the layout in this example. That is, it is an area where the layout is fixed.

Further, in the illustrated example, the first block image 441 which is the block A of the block selection area 43, the second block image 442 which is the block B, and the seventh block image 447 which is the block C are selected. Here, by selecting the first block image 441 and subsequently selecting the first designated area 453 (for example, so-called drag and drop), the block A is displayed in the first designated area 453 (see arrow D51). As a result, the editor screen 351 is displayed in the first designated area 453 (see FIG. 4). Similarly, block B is displayed in the second designated area 455 based on the second block image 442 (see arrow D52), and block C is displayed in the third designated area 457 based on the third block image 443 (arrow). See D53). As a result, the execution result screen 355 is displayed in the second designated area 455, and the console screen 361 is displayed in the third designated area 457. Then, the layout determined in the layout setting area 45 is directly reflected on the training screen LS.

Here, the block is a single service provided to the instructor and / or the student. For example, services indicated by each block, such as an editor block, a console block, a calculator block, a video block, and a memo pad block, are provided via the training screen LS.

Further, in the block selection area 43 of the illustrated example, various blocks are displayed, and the instructor can set the service required for his / her own training via the block selection area 43. More specifically, in the illustrated example, all services required by the instructor can be set via the block selection area 43. This eliminates the need for both the instructor and the student to register for various services in preparation for the course.

Further, in the present embodiment, the layout setting screen TS is not displayed on the terminal 40 or the like operated by the student. That is, students are restricted from changing the position of blocks, replacing blocks, and so on. As a result, it is suppressed that the training screen LS is contrary to the intention of the instructor.

<Direct setting screen DS>
FIG. 6 is a diagram for explaining the direct setting screen DS.
Next, the direct setting screen DS will be described with reference to FIG.
The direct setting screen DS is a screen operated by the instructor prior to the training, instead of the layout setting screen TS.

The layout may be set only on one of the direct setting screen DS and the layout setting screen TS, or the layout may be selected by selecting one of the other setting screens in addition to the direct setting screen DS and the layout setting screen TS. May be set.

With this direct setting screen DS, it is possible to determine the layout of the second display area 35 on the own training screen LS. This makes it possible to create a lecture screen LS unique to the instructor. As a result, the lecture can be conducted in the manner desired by the instructor.

The direct setting screen DS has a block selection area 53 and a layout setting area 55. Here, unlike the layout setting screen TS, the direct setting screen DS does not have the template selection area 41. Further explaining, on the direct setting screen DS, the layout can be freely determined without being limited to the template.

The block selection area 53 is an area for displaying a plurality of blocks that are elements to be displayed in the second display area 35. The block selection area 53 in the illustrated example includes a block search area 531, first block images 541 to 550 which are images of a plurality of blocks, and a second scroll bar 554.

The layout setting area 55 is an area in which the layout of the second display area 35 is displayed according to the operation of the instructor. In the illustrated example, the blocks are arranged in two upper and lower stages, the upper stage is divided into a first designated area 555 which is one block, and the lower stage is divided into a second designated area 555 and a third designated area 557 which are two blocks. NS. Then, block A is displayed in the first designated area 553 based on the first block image 541 (see arrow D61), and block B is displayed in the second designated area 555 based on the second block image 542 (see arrow D62). ), Block C is displayed in the third designated area 557 based on the eighth block image 548 (see arrow D63).
