Description

The present invention relates to technology for assisting input of digital teaching materials.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, many digital teaching materials are known for improving the knowledge, ability, etc. of users (students). Patent Literature 1 describes a system in which a user uses a tablet-type mobile information terminal or a stationary personal computer to answer questions.

JP 2018-59973 A

However, in the configuration of Patent Literature 1, when a user inputs an answer using a digital teaching material, the user selects an answer candidate in a state in which the order of conversion candidates is determined. When the user repeatedly answers the same question, the correct answer may be displayed at the top of the conversion candidates (higher display position) due to the character conversion function. That is, the user can mechanically select the correct answer, which may reduce the learning effect.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a character input device that suppresses a decrease in the user's learning effect.

According to an example of the present disclosure, this character input device includes a candidate search unit that searches for conversion candidates of an input character string that has been input, and a sequence determination unit that determines the sequence of conversion candidates. The sequence determining unit dynamically changes parameters used to determine the sequence of conversion candidates.

As is well known, character input includes a method in which a user inputs the phonetic notation of a word to be input as a character string (desired character string), and a method in which the user inputs the spelling of the word to be input as a character string, depending on the type of language to be input. There is also a method of making the user input. For example, Japanese and Chinese are types of languages that require the user to input phonetic notation (reading (kana), pinyin) of a word to be input as a character string. Also, for example, English and German are types of languages in which the user is prompted to enter the spelling of a word to be entered as a character string.

The input character string referred to here may be a character string corresponding to the phonetic notation of the word to be input, or a character string corresponding to the spelling of the word to be input, depending on the type of language to be input. Conversion candidates include not only character strings that completely match the input character string, but also character strings that front-match the input character string (so-called predictive conversion candidates).

With this configuration, even if the same input character string is repeatedly input, the sequence of conversion candidates corresponding to this input character string can be dynamically changed. As a result, it is possible to suppress a decrease in the user's learning effect in repetitive learning using digital teaching materials.

Further, the parameter may be, for example, a random number generated according to the input of the input character string, the input time of the input character string (input start time, input end time, etc.), or other The timing may be used as a trigger for determination.

With this configuration, it is possible to change the order of conversion candidates of the input character string input by the user through simple processing.

Also, the character input device may include, for example, a communication unit that transmits and receives input character strings or conversion candidates.

With this configuration, the user can obtain conversion candidates via the network.

Also, the character input device may include a scoring unit that scores answers selected from conversion candidates.

With this configuration, the user can easily determine whether the answer is correct or incorrect.

Further, in the character input device, the sequence determination unit may calculate weights according to the types of conversion candidates, and determine the sequence of conversion candidates by adding the calculated weights.

With this configuration, conversion candidates can be arranged according to the learning environment of the user.

According to this invention, it is possible to suppress the deterioration of the user's learning effect.

Embodiments of a character string input device according to the present invention will be described below with reference to several drawings.

<1. Application example>
FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing a network system using digital teaching materials. The network system of this example has a configuration in which a plurality of user terminals 30 are connected to a server device 10 via a network 20, as shown in FIG. The server device 10 performs data communication with a user terminal 30 connected via the network 20 .

The user terminal 30 is a personal computer or a tablet terminal operated by a user studying with digital teaching materials. The server device 10 distributes digital teaching materials to the user terminals 30 . The server device 10 also scores the answers sent from the user terminal 30 .

In this example, the character input device according to the present invention is applied to server device 10 . The server device 10 distributes problems used in digital teaching materials to the user terminals 30 .

The user terminal 30 displays the questions distributed from the server device 10 on the screen of the display. The user operates a keyboard or touch panel, which is an input device, to input an answer to the question.

The user inputs, for example, kana characters "taisei" as an answer to the question displayed on the display. The user presses the conversion button. The user terminal 30 transmits to the server device 10 the kana character "taisei", which is the character string input this time.

The server device 10 generates conversion candidates according to the input character string received from the user terminal 30 . The server device 10 generates random numbers and uses the generated random numbers to determine the sequence of conversion candidates.

The server device 10 transmits the conversion candidates and the sequence of conversion candidates to the user terminal 30 . The user terminal 30 displays the conversion candidates received from the server device 10 . The user terminal 30 displays the conversion candidates in the order received from the server device 10 . The user selects a conversion candidate judged to be an answer from the displayed conversion candidates by operating a mouse, keyboard, or touch panel as an input device.

The user terminal 30 transmits the selected conversion candidate to the server device 10 as the user's answer.

The server device 10 scores whether the answer is correct or incorrect for each user, that is, for each user terminal 30 .

Thus, in the network system of this example, even if the user repeatedly inputs the same input character string, the sequence of conversion candidates corresponding to this input character string is dynamically changed. Therefore, when the user repeats learning to answer the same question repeatedly, the order in which the correct conversion candidates are displayed can be dynamically changed. As a result, it is possible to suppress a decrease in the user's learning effect in repetitive learning using digital teaching materials.

<2. Configuration example>
FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the main part of the server device of this example. FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the main part of the user terminal of this example. 4A and 4B are image diagrams of the display of the user terminal in this example. 5(A), 5(B), and 5(C) are image diagrams of the display of the user terminal in this example. Here, a Japanese character string input device will be described as an example.

First, the configuration of the server device 10 will be described with reference to FIG. The server device 10 includes a control unit 110 , a dictionary database 120 (dictionary DB 120 ), and a communication section 130 .

(Configuration of control unit)
The control unit 110 controls each part of the main body of the server device 10 . The control unit 110 includes a character string acquisition section 110a, a candidate search section 110b, an alignment determination section 110c, and a scoring section 110d.

(Structure of dictionary database)
The dictionary database 120 is a database in which readings (kana character strings), parts of speech, converted character strings (character strings after kana-kanji conversion), etc. are registered in association with each other. In this example, the kana character string corresponds to the input character string according to the present invention. The communication unit 130 performs data communication with the user terminal 30 connected via the network 20 .

The dictionary database 120 may be, for example, a storage medium such as a HDD (Hard Disk Drive) or an SSD (Solid State Drive), or may be another storage medium.

(Detailed configuration of control unit)
The character string acquisition unit 110 a acquires the kana character string received from the user terminal 30 . The character string acquisition unit 110a outputs the kana character string to the candidate search unit 110b.

The candidate search unit 110b searches the dictionary database 120 using the kana character string. More specifically, the candidate search unit 110b searches the dictionary database 120 using the kana character string as a key to acquire conversion candidates. The conversion candidates acquired here include not only conversion candidates associated with readings that exactly match the kana character string, but also conversion candidates associated with readings that match the beginning of the kana character string (predictive conversion candidates). included. The candidate search unit 110b outputs the acquired conversion candidates to the alignment determination unit 110c.

The sequence determination unit 110c dynamically determines the sequence of conversion candidates using random numbers (for example, pseudo-random numbers). In other words, the arrangement determination unit 110c uses random numbers to randomly arrange the conversion candidates. This random number is generated according to the user's operation of inputting kana characters. This random number corresponds to the "parameter" in the present invention.

Note that the arrangement determination unit 110c has shown a configuration in which the arrangement of conversion candidates is dynamically determined using random numbers. However, if the arrangement of the conversion candidates output by the candidate searching unit 110b is predetermined, the arrangement determination unit 110c may rearrange the conversion candidates using random numbers.

Note that the parameters used by the sequence determination unit 110c to determine the sequence of conversion candidates may replace the random numbers described above with the input time (input start time, input end time, etc.) of the input character string.

The communication unit 130 transmits to the user terminal 30 the conversion candidates acquired by the candidate search unit 110b and the sequence of conversion candidates determined by the sequence determination unit 110c.

The scoring unit 110d scores the conversion candidates selected by the user terminal 30, that is, the user's answers.

The control unit 110 of the server device 10 is composed of a hardware CPU, memory, and other electronic circuits. When the hardware CPU executes the character input program according to the present invention, it operates as a character string acquisition section 110a, a candidate search section 110b, an alignment determination section 110c, and a scoring section 110d. The memory also has an area for developing the character input program according to the present invention and an area for temporarily storing data generated when executing the character input program. The control unit 110 may be an LSI (Large Scale Integrated Circuit) integrating a hardware CPU, memory, and the like. Also, the hardware CPU is a computer that executes the character input method according to the present invention.

Next, the configuration of the user terminal 30 will be described with reference to FIG. The user terminal 30 includes a control section 310 , a display device 320 , an operation section 330 and a communication section 340 . The user terminal 30 is a general personal computer, tablet terminal, smart phone, or the like.

The control unit 310 controls the operation of each unit of the user terminal 30 .

The display 320 displays a screen corresponding to the state of the user terminal 30 main body. The operation unit 330 has input devices such as a mouse, a keyboard (software keyboard), and a touch panel. The operation unit 330 receives user input operations on the user terminal 30 . The communication unit 340 performs data communication with the server device 10 connected via the network 20 .

The control unit 310 of the user terminal 30 is composed of a hardware CPU, memory, and other electronic circuits. Also, the control unit 310 may be configured by an LSI that integrates a hardware CPU, memory, and the like.

A specific processing image of the user terminal 30 will be described with reference to FIGS. 4, 5A, 5B, and 5C.

FIG. 4 is an image diagram of the display 320 of the user terminal 30. As shown in FIG. The user terminal 30 displays the questions distributed from the server device 10 on the display 320 . The user terminal 30 in the example shown in FIG. 4 is a tablet terminal, and has a configuration using a software keyboard as the operation unit 330 .

The display 320 displays questions (problems to be answered by the user) distributed from the server device 10, and an input section 321 and an input section 322, which are answer columns for inputting answers to the questions. The input units 321 and 322 change the content, size, and number of inputs to be accepted depending on the question to be answered by the user.

The user inputs the kana character “taisei” into the input unit 321 and presses the conversion button of the operation unit 330 . The communication unit 340 of the user terminal 30 transmits the input kana character “taisei” to the server device 10 .

The communication unit 130 of the server device 10 outputs the kana character "taisei" received from the user terminal 30 to the character string acquisition unit 110a. The character string acquisition unit 110a outputs the kana character "taisei" to the candidate search unit 110b. The candidate search unit 110b acquires conversion candidates from the dictionary database 120 using the kana character "taisei" as a key.

The candidate search unit 110b outputs the conversion candidates to the alignment determination unit 110c. The sequence determination unit 110c determines the sequence of conversion candidates using random numbers. For example, the sequence determination unit 110c may determine the sequence of conversion candidates as "attitude", "system", "stance", "formation", "recession", "resistance", and "great government". It may be determined as "Resistance", "Stance", "Structure", "Stance", "Retreat", "Great Government", "Great Success", or it may be determined in a sequence other than this.

The communication unit 130 transmits to the user terminal 30 the conversion candidates acquired by the candidate search unit 110b and the sequence of conversion candidates determined by the sequence determination unit 110c. The user terminal 30 displays the conversion candidates received by the communication unit 340 in the conversion candidate display field 331 in the received order. For example, if the determined sequence of conversion candidates is "attitude", "system", "stance", "formation", "recession", "resistance", and "great government", the user terminal 30 The display shown in FIG. 4A is performed in the candidate display field 331, and the sequence of the determined conversion candidates is "resistance", "stance", "regime", "attitude", "retreat", "police", " 4(B) is displayed in the conversion candidate display field 331 .

The user performs an operation of selecting a conversion candidate determined as an answer from the random conversion candidates displayed on the display 320 by using a mouse, keyboard, or touch operation as an input device.

The communication unit 340 of the user terminal 30 transmits the selected conversion candidate to the server device 10 as the user's answer. The communication unit 130 outputs the user's answer received from the user terminal 30 to the character string acquisition unit 110a. The character string acquisition unit 110a outputs the user's answer to the scoring unit 110d.

The scoring unit 110d scores whether the user's answer is correct or incorrect.

Screen display on the display 320 when the user terminal 30 is a personal computer will be described with reference to FIGS. 5(A), 5(B), and 5(C). 5A, 5B, and 5C are image diagrams of the display 320 when the user terminal 30 is a personal computer. The user terminal 30 displays the questions distributed from the server device 10 on the display 320 . In the examples shown in FIGS. 5A, 5B, and 5C, the operation unit 330 of the user terminal 30 is, for example, a hardware keyboard.

Even when the user terminal 30 is a personal computer, the user inputs the kana character “taisei” into the input unit 321 and presses the conversion button of the operation unit 330 .

As is clear from FIGS. 5A, 5B, and 5C, the screen of the display 320 does not display the image of the software keyboard.

The processing until the user terminal 30 receives the conversion candidates and the sequence of conversion candidates from the server device 10 is the same as in the case of the tablet terminal described above.

If the user terminal 30 is a personal computer, for example, the sequence of the determined conversion candidates is "attitude", "attitude", "attitude", "formation", "recession", "endurance", and "great government". 5A is displayed in the conversion candidate display field 331a, and the sequence of the determined conversion candidates is "resistance", "posture", "system", "posture", and "retreat". In the case of "sei", "taisei", and "taisei", the conversion candidate display field 331 is displayed as shown in FIG. Further, if the determined sequence of conversion candidates is "Taisei", "Recession", "Resistance", "Stance", "Stance", "Stance", and "Taisei", the user terminal 30 The display shown in FIG. 5C is performed in the candidate display column 331a.

In this way, the server device 10 randomly determines the sequence of conversion candidates to be displayed on the user terminal 30 using random numbers. That is, every time an operation related to conversion is performed on the user terminal 30, the arrangement of conversion candidates displayed on the user terminal 30 can be dynamically changed. Therefore, when the user repeats learning to answer the same question repeatedly, the order in which the correct conversion candidates are displayed can be dynamically changed. As a result, even in iterative learning in which the same question is repeatedly answered, the user's learning effect can be prevented from decreasing.

<3. Operation example>
The operation of the server device 10 and the user terminal 30 when the user uses the digital teaching material will be described below. FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing the processing flow of the server device 10. As shown in FIG. FIG. 7 is a flow chart showing the processing flow of the user terminal 30. As shown in FIG.

The server device 10 distributes the questions of the digital teaching material to the user terminal 30 (S101). For example, as shown in FIG. 4, the server device 10
"The next project will proceed with the new 'Taisei'. Enter the correct kanji in "Taisei".
and the like are transmitted to the user terminal 30 .

The user terminal 30 receives the questions distributed from the server device 10 via the communication unit 340 (S111). The user terminal 30 displays the received question on the display 320 (S112). The user operates an input device such as a keyboard provided in the operation unit 330 to input kana characters "taisei" to the input unit 321 (S113).

The user terminal 30 transmits the input kana characters to the server device 10 via the communication unit 340 (S114). The user terminal 30 waits for conversion candidates to be transmitted from the server device 10 .

After distributing the question, the server device 10 waits for the reading (the kana character input by the user) to be received from the user terminal 30 (S102). When the character string acquisition unit 110a of the server apparatus 10 receives the kana character (here, "taisei") input by the user via the communication unit 130, the character string acquisition unit 110a converts the kana character "taisei" into Output to the candidate search unit 110b.

The candidate search unit 110b searches for conversion candidates from the dictionary database 120 using the kana character "taisei" as a key. The candidate search unit 110b acquires conversion candidates (S103), and outputs the conversion candidates to the sequence determination unit 110c.

The sequence determination unit 110c randomly determines the sequence of conversion candidates (S104). At this time, the sequence determination unit 110c determines the sequence of conversion candidates using random numbers.

The communication unit 130 transmits the conversion candidates acquired by the candidate search unit 110b and the sequence of conversion candidates determined by the sequence determination unit 110c to the user terminal 30 (S105).

When the user terminal 30 receives the conversion candidates and the sequence of conversion candidates from the server device 10 (S115), the received conversion candidates are displayed in the conversion candidate display columns 331 and 331a in the received sequence (S116).

The user selects the conversion candidate judged to be the answer from among the conversion candidates displayed in the conversion candidate display fields 331 and 331a using a mouse, keyboard, or touch operation as an input device (S117).

The communication unit 340 of the user terminal 30 transmits the selected conversion candidate to the server device 10 as the user's answer (S118).

After transmitting to the user terminal 30 the conversion candidates acquired by the candidate search unit 110b and the sequence of conversion candidates determined by the sequence determination unit 110c in S105, the server device 10 waits for an answer to be received from the user terminal 30 ( s106). When the server device 10 receives the user's answer at the communication unit 130, the scoring unit 110d scores the user's answer received from the user terminal 30 (S107). The scoring unit 110d scores whether the answer is correct or incorrect for each user, that is, for each user terminal 30. FIG.

In this way, the server device 10 randomly determines the sequence of conversion candidates to be displayed on the user terminal 30 using random numbers. As a result, even in iterative learning in which the user repeatedly answers the same question, the user's learning effect can be suppressed from deteriorating.

<4. Variation>
・Modification 1
The sequence determination unit 110c of the server device 10 shown in the above example determines the sequence of conversion candidates using random numbers, subject, language (Japanese, English, Chinese, etc.), statistical The random number may be weighted using a coefficient calculated from the correct answer rate. The "subject, language (Japanese, English, Chinese, etc.), and statistical correct answer rate of the corresponding question" correspond to the "type" in the present invention.

With this configuration, it is possible to provide conversion candidates according to the user's learning status.

・Modification 2
FIG. 8 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the main part of the user terminal 30A of Modification 2. As shown in FIG. 30 A of user terminals of this modification 2 differ from the said example in that the control part 310 has the row determination part 310a while being provided with dictionary DB350. The dictionary DB 350 has the same configuration as the dictionary DB 120 in the above example. Also, the arrangement determination unit 310a has the same configuration as the arrangement determination unit 110c in the example described above.

The user inputs kana characters into the input unit 321 and presses the conversion button of the operation unit 330 . 30 A of user terminals acquire a conversion candidate from dictionary DB350 provided inside. Note that the method for searching the dictionary DB 350 stored inside the user terminal 30A is a known method, and detailed description thereof will be omitted. Sequence determination section 310a randomly determines the sequence of conversion candidates by performing the same processing as in the above example. The user terminal 30A displays the conversion candidates acquired by searching the dictionary DB 350 in the conversion candidate display fields 331 and 331a in the order determined by the order determination unit 310a.

The user selects a conversion candidate judged to be an answer from the conversion candidates displayed in the conversion candidate display fields 331 and 331a by using a mouse, keyboard, or touch operation as an input device.

The communication unit 340 of the user terminal 30A transmits the selected conversion candidate to the communication unit 130 of the server device 10 as the user's answer. The communication unit 130 outputs the answer to the character string acquisition unit 110a. The character string acquisition unit 110a outputs the answers to the scoring unit 110d.

The scoring unit 110d scores whether the answer is correct or incorrect for each user, that is, for each user terminal 30. FIG.

By configuring in this way, the user terminal 30A, after the question is distributed from the server device 10 to the user terminal 30A, until the user terminal 30A transmits the user's answer to the server device 10, within the user terminal 30A Processing can be completed. That is, even if the network environment is not ready, the user can use the digital teaching material offline as long as the user terminal 30A can download the questions from the server device 10 in advance.

・Modification 3
The character input device according to the present invention is not limited to the type of language (Japanese) in which the user inputs the phonetic notation (reading (kana)) of a word to be input as a character string. It can also be applied to languages that require the user to enter the spelling of the desired word. Here, an example of English, which is a method of inputting the spelling of a word that the user wants to input as a character string, will be described.

"Look at that (beauty) mountain."
A case will be described as an example.

When the user inputs "beaut" into the input unit 321, the server apparatus 10 (configuration of the above application example) acquires "beaut" input by the user from the user terminal 30, and converts the acquired "beaut". Get Candidates. The server device 10 acquires, for example, "beaut", "beauti", "beautiful", "beauty", "beautfulfy", etc. as conversion candidates for "beaut". In addition, the server device 10 determines the sequence of the acquired conversion candidates of "beaut". For example, the server apparatus 10 may determine the sequence of conversion candidates to be "beauti", "beaut", "beautiful", "beauty" and "beautfulfy", or "beaut", "beautiful", "beauty" and "beautfulfy". , ``beauti'', or other arrangements. The sequence of conversion candidates is randomly determined using random numbers or the like, as in the above example.

Upon receiving the conversion candidates and the sequence of conversion candidates from the server device 10, the user terminal 30 displays the received conversion candidates in the received sequence in the conversion candidate display field 331a.

FIG. 9A shows an example in which the sequence of conversion candidates is "beauti", "beaut", "beautiful", "beauty" and "beautfulfy", and FIG. 9B shows an example in which the sequence of conversion candidates is Examples are "beaut", "beautiful", "beauty", "beautfulfy", and "beauti".

Also in this modification 3, the server apparatus 10 may determine that the user has answered the question, and may grade the selected conversion candidate in the same manner as in the above-described example.

Also, FIG. 9 illustrates the case where the user terminal 30 is a personal computer, but in the case of a tablet terminal, the conversion candidates are displayed in the conversion candidate display column 331 in the determined arrangement.
