Subsequently, the operation of the online test system 10. Incidentally, FIG. 12 is a flowchart showing the operation of the online test system.

  First, the site examinee database 54b and the test content data 54c are distributed from the test management server 62 to the test site server 42 via the network 200 by the test implementation time (step S1). Distribution of the venue examinee database 54b and the test content data 54c is performed manually or automatically.

  Then, the information entered in the examination slip is input by the examinee at the examination terminal 12, and the examinee is authenticated by the test processing application 54a of the examination venue server 42 (step S2). If the authentication is performed correctly, the test taken by the examinee is specified based on the venue examinee database 54b.

  After the authentication is performed, the test content data 54c corresponding to the test taken by the examinee is delivered to each examination terminal 12 (step S3).

  In the test terminal 12 to which the test content data 54c has been distributed, the test content data 54c is displayed on the screen, played back by voice or video by the test application 28a, and the test is started. The examinee inputs an answer to the contents displayed on the screen, reproduced by audio or reproduced to the examination application 28a, and creates answer content data (step S4).

The answer content data is created by selecting and inputting characters and symbols displayed on the display 26 by the input device 32 as shown in FIG. 13 when the test format is a mark type or a selection type. Answer content data is created.

  If the test format is descriptive, the answer content can be obtained by inputting handwritten characters and symbols in the handwriting input field displayed in the display 26 using an input device 32 such as a tablet as shown in FIG. Data is created.

  Further, when the test format is a descriptive (oral) formula, answer content data is created by the examinee answering the answer verbally and inputting the voice into the microphone 38.

  Furthermore, when the test format is a descriptive formula, the answer content data may be created by inputting sound into the microphone 38 and recording moving image data using the camera 22. As a result, the examinee's way of speaking and facial expressions can be referred to when performing the scoring process.

  When the test time ends, the answer content data is collected from each test terminal 12 to the test site server 42. Further, the answer content data collected by the examination hall server 42 is collected from the examination hall server 42 to the scoring server 82 (step S5).

  The answer content data collected by the scoring server 82 is scored based on the answer data 74e by the OMR processing application 94a when the answer content data is created by image data for OMR. When the answer content data is created from OCR image data, the OCR processing application 94b performs a scoring process based on the answer data 74e. If the answer content data is created from audio data or moving image data, the content of the data is reproduced using the answer content data reproduction application 94c, and a scoring process is performed by the grader (step S6).

  When the scoring process is performed by the OMR processing application 94a and the OCR processing application 94b, scoring content data is automatically generated by the OMR processing application 94a and the OCR processing application 94b. In addition, when the scoring process is performed by the grader using the answer content data reproduction application 94c, the scoring content data is created when the scoring result is input to the answer content data reproduction application 94c. (Step S7).

  As scoring content data created by the OMR processing application 94a, the OCR processing application 94b, and the answer content data playback application 94c, HTML data that can be viewed by the examinee by the WWW server application 74c, or as an email to the email server application 74d Print data that can print text data distributed to the examinees and documents proving that the examination has been passed is created.

  The created scoring content data is appropriately transmitted to the WWW server application 74c and the e-mail server application 74d of the scoring server 82 according to the type of the data (step S8).

  The WWW server application 74c that has received the scoring content data stores it in a data area that can be viewed by the examinee and publishes the test result as a home page. The e-mail server application 74d transmits the received scoring content data to the e-mail address of the examinee as appropriate (step S9). As for the e-mail address of the examinee, the contents of the examinee database 74a are searched and extracted as appropriate by the e-mail server application 74d.

  As described above, according to the online test system according to the present invention, the answer result of the test can be quickly collected and the scoring process can be quickly performed. Also, the scoring results are quickly distributed as a homepage or e-mail by the WWW server application 74c or the e-mail server application 74d. Furthermore, when conducting an essay test, it is possible to conduct tests on a plurality of examinees at a plurality of venues at the same time without dispatching examiners to each examination venue.

  In this embodiment, the WWW server and the e-mail server that provide the scoring content data are constructed by the single test management server 62. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the WWW server and the e-mail are configured by a plurality of servers. You may build a server.

  In this embodiment, the scoring performed by the OMR process, the scoring performed by the OCR process, and the scoring performed by reproducing the audio data and the moving image data by the answer content data playback application 94c are performed by one scoring server 82. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and a plurality of scoring servers may be installed. Also, each scoring server performs scoring by processing by OMR, scoring by processing by OCR, and answer content data reproduction application 94c. You may comprise so that any of the scoring performed by reproducing | regenerating audio | voice data and moving image data may be processed specially.

  Furthermore, in this embodiment, the answer content data is any one of image data that can be scored by OMR processing, image data that can be scored by OCR processing, audio data that can be scored by reproduction processing, and moving image data. Although it is configured to include a single type of data, the present invention is not limited to this, and answer content data in which a plurality of these data are mixed may be created. In this case, the answer content data is appropriately divided based on the content of the data, distributed to an application for scoring, etc., and the scoring content data is created by synthesizing the scoring content data.
