[1-3] Operation FIG. 5 is a sequence diagram showing an example of the operation of the answer totaling system 1. In this operation example, an operation will be described in which the answers of test takers are totaled for a specific test (hereinafter, referred to as “target test”) and the result is displayed. The target test includes a plurality of questions in the form of selecting an answer from given options. In this example, first, the examinee operates the display device (for example, the touch display 204) of the client terminal 20, and performs an operation for displaying the login screen of the answer totaling system 1. In this example, the answer totaling system 1 requires prior user registration. The examinee performs user registration in advance. At the time of user registration, the examinee inputs his / her own user profile (for example, name, address, age, educational background, etc.). The examinee who has completed the user registration is given a user ID and a password. In step S <b> 1, the client terminal 20 activates a Web browser in response to an operation of a test taker, and transmits a request to acquire a login screen of the answer totaling system to the server 10.

  Upon receiving the acquisition request from the client terminal 20, the server 10 transmits data representing the login screen corresponding to the received acquisition request to the client terminal 20 (Step S2). In step S3, the client terminal 20 receives the data from the server 10, and displays a login screen represented by the received data on a display device.

  FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating an example of a login screen displayed on the client terminal 20. In the example of FIG. 6, a text input box and a button for logging in are displayed. A test taker who has not yet performed user registration performs an operation for user registration on this screen to perform user registration.

  In the screen shown in FIG. 6, the examinee inputs his / her user ID and / or password (hereinafter, referred to as “login information”) and presses a login button. In step S4, the client terminal 20 transmits the input login information to the server 10. In step S5, the server 10 performs user authentication using the login information received from the client terminal 20. When the authentication is successful, the server 10 transmits data of a screen for selecting a function of the answer totaling system 1 (hereinafter, referred to as “menu selection screen”) to the client terminal 20 in step S6. When the authentication fails, the server 10 transmits data indicating that the authentication has failed to the client terminal 20 without transmitting the data of the menu selection screen.

  In step S7, the client terminal 20 displays a menu selection screen on the display device according to the data received from the server 10. The menu selection screen includes a menu provided in the answer totaling service.

  FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating an example of the menu selection screen. In the screen of FIG. 7, the examinee can select a menu of “input answer”, “display count result”, and “display match rate”. “Answer input” is a menu for inputting an option selected by the examinee in the target test (ie, the examinee's answer). “Display tally result” is a menu for displaying the tally result by the answer tally system 1. "Display match rate" is a menu for displaying the match rate between the selection result of the logged-in examinee and the specific option specified by the answer totaling system 1. The examinee first selects the menu of "input answer".

  When the examinee selects the "answer input" menu, in step S8, the client terminal 20 sends a request for acquiring data of a screen for inputting the answer by the examinee (hereinafter referred to as "answer input screen") to the server. Send to 10. In step S9, the server 10 transmits data of the answer input screen to the client terminal 20 in response to the acquisition request from the client terminal 20. In step S10, the client terminal 20 displays an answer input screen according to the received data, and accepts an input of an option for each question selected by the examinee.

  FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating an example of the answer input screen. The screen of FIG. 8 displays a check box for the examinee to select an option for each question included in the target test. In the screen of FIG. 8, the examinee performs an operation of selecting a check box corresponding to the option selected by himself / herself in the target test. In the target test according to this operation example, the number of correct answers differs for each question. The target test is not limited to a question in which the number of correct answers is one, but also includes, for example, a question in which the number of correct answers is two or three.

  The examinee selects a check box corresponding to the option selected by himself / herself in each question, and selects a “register” button. When the examinee selects the “Register” button, in step S11, the client terminal 20 sends data indicating the option selected by the examinee in each of the plurality of questions (hereinafter, referred to as “selection result data”) to the server 10. Send. In step S12, the server 10 receives the selection result data from the client terminal 20. The server 10 receives the selection result data from the plurality of client terminals 20 at different timings.

  In step S13, the server 10 totals the options selected by the plurality of examinees in each of the plurality of questions included in the target test based on the received selection result data. In this embodiment, the server 10 counts the number of votes of each option in each of a plurality of questions, and calculates the vote rate of each option according to the count result. It should be noted that the mode of aggregation is not limited to this, and another mode may be used. For example, the server 10 may only count the number of votes for each option. The result of the aggregation by the server 10 is stored in a predetermined storage area of the server 10.

  In step S <b> 14, for each question included in the target test, the server 10 specifies the number of correct answers in each question in descending order of the ratio (voting rate) selected by the examinee. In the following description, the option specified in this step is referred to as “specific option”.

  In step S15, the server 10 compares the specific option with the option selected by the examinee for the examinee corresponding to the client terminal 20 that has transmitted the selection result data in step S11. The match rate between the examinee's answer and the specific option is calculated. This matching rate may be calculated for each group (for example, for each subject) by grouping a plurality of questions. The data indicating the matching rate and the data indicating the specific option calculated by the server 10 are stored in a predetermined storage area of the server 10.

  In step S151, the server 10 estimates the passability of the examinee based on the calculated matching rate. For this estimation, for example, the server 10 may specify a rank (for example, an A rank, a B rank, a C rank, or the like) indicating the possibility of passing according to the calculated matching rate. Further, as another example, for example, the server 10 may convert the calculated coincidence rate using a predetermined function, and specify a rank indicating the possibility of passing according to the converted value.

  In addition, the server 10 may estimate the pass possibility using the weighting coefficient set for each question. At this time, the server 10 may make the weighting coefficient of the cracking question smaller than the weighting coefficient of the question other than the cracking question (hereinafter, referred to as “normal question”). Specifically, for example, the server 10 corrects the value obtained by multiplying the number of cracked questions presumed to be correct (the option selected by the examinee matches the specific option) by 0.5, and the correct answer. It is estimated that the total value of the number of normal questions (the candidate's choice matches the specific option) and the total number of crack questions multiplied by 0.5 and the total number of normal questions By dividing by the total value, a matching rate with a lighter weight for cracking questions may be calculated, and the possibility of passing may be specified based on the calculated matching rate. Data indicating the pass possibility calculated by the server 10 is stored in a predetermined storage area of the server 10.

  In step S16, the server 10 transmits a response indicating that the input of the answer has been received to the client terminal 20. Note that the transmission timing of the response is not limited to this. For example, a response may be transmitted prior to performing the processing of step S12.

  Upon receiving the response from the server 10, the client terminal 20 displays the menu selection screen illustrated in FIG. 7 again in step S17. The examinee performs an operation of selecting a menu of “display a totaling result” while the screen shown in FIG. 7 is displayed. When the menu of “display the totaling result” is selected, the client terminal 20 transmits a request to acquire the display screen of the totaling result to the server 10 in step S18. In addition, in order to provide a motivation for answer input, the button of “display the tally result” may be displayed only when the answer input is completed.

  In step S19, the server 10 transmits (outputs) data indicating the totaled result at the client terminal 20, which is the transmission source of the acquisition request transmitted in step S18. At this time, the server 10 displays a specific question (breaking question) in which the relationship between the ratios of two or more options included in each question satisfies a predetermined condition among a plurality of questions included in the target test. Is also transmitted (output) to the client terminal 20. In this embodiment, the “breaking question (specific question)” means, when the questions are arranged in descending order of the vote rate, the vote rate of the number of options (n-th place) that is regarded as the correct answer, and the correct answer Is a question that satisfies the condition indicating that the difference from the vote rate of the option of the next rank ((n + 1) th rank) is small.

  In this example, the “breaking question (specific question)” is the vote rate of the n-th choice, which is the number of correct answers when the choices of the question are arranged in descending order of the vote rate (that is, in descending order). The questionnaire has a questionnaire in which the percentage of the vote rate of the (n + 1) th option, which is the next rank, is equal to or more than a threshold value (for example, 70%). For example, for a question in which the number of correct choices is “1”, the ratio of the vote rate of the option having the next highest rank (ie, the second place) to the vote rate of the option having the highest vote rate is 70% or more. If so, the question is identified as a broken question. More specifically, if the vote rate of the option with the highest selected ratio is 50%, the question with the vote rate of the second-ranked option of (50 × 0.7 =) 35% or more is a broken question. Is specified. On the other hand, a question whose vote rate of the second choice is less than 35% is determined not to be a broken question.

  When there are a plurality of correct answers, the same process is used to specify the alternatives. For example, in the case of a question in which the number of correct answers is “2”, the choices of the question are arranged in descending order of the vote rate, and the vote of the third choice is compared to the vote rate of the second choice. When the rate is 70% or more, the question is specified as a crack question. Further, for example, in the case of a question in which the number of correct answers is “3”, the fourth choice is compared with the vote rate of the third choice when the choices of the question are arranged in descending order of the vote rate. If the vote rate is 70% or more, the question is identified as a broken question.

  In step S19, the server 10 transmits to the client terminal 20 data for displaying a link for accessing the bulletin board for the examinee to discuss the cracking question.

  In step S20, the client terminal 20 displays the counting result and the cracking question on the display device according to the data output by the server 10.

  FIG. 9 is a view showing an example of a screen displayed on the display device by the client terminal 20 and showing the counting result and the cracking question. In the example of FIG. 9, a number for identifying each of a plurality of questions (hereinafter referred to as “question number”) is displayed, and for each of the plurality of questions, the total number of votes and the respective vote rates of a plurality of options are totaled. The result is displayed. In each question, a specific option is shown in bold as "expected answer", and an option selected by the examinee is shown as "my answer" underlined.

  In the example of FIG. 9, icons I1 and I2 indicating a crack question are displayed at positions adjacent to the question number. These icons display links for accessing a bulletin board for the examinee to discuss. In this operation example, the cracking question is further subdivided and displayed. More specifically, for a question in which the ratio of the vote rate of the (n + 1) -th option to the vote rate of the n-th option is 90% or more, an icon indicating “hard cracking” is displayed, and 80% or more and 90% For questions less than less than one, an icon marked "break crack" is displayed, and for questions less than or equal to 70% and less than 80%, an icon written as "choice crack" is displayed. Note that no icon is displayed for a question having the difference of less than 70%. In this operation example, data indicating the type of these cracking questions (“hard cracking”, “choice cracking,” etc.) is transmitted by the server 10 to the client terminal 20, and the client terminal 20 transmits the data received from the server 10. To display these icons.

  By examining the screen illustrated in FIG. 9, the examinee can grasp the total result including the selection results of other examinees, and can recognize the difference from his / her own selection results. At this time, an icon indicating that is displayed for the cracking question, so that it is easy to grasp which question was the cracking question.

  In the screen illustrated in FIG. 9, when the examinee performs an operation of selecting an icon indicating that the icon is a crack, in step S21, the client terminal 20 issues a request to acquire data corresponding to the selected icon. Send it to server 10.

  In step S22, the server 10 transmits data representing the screen of the bulletin board corresponding to the acquisition request received from the client terminal 20 to the client terminal 20. In step S23, the client terminal 20 displays the bulletin board on the display device according to the data received from the server 10.

  FIG. 10 is a diagram illustrating an example of a bulletin board screen displayed on the display device. In this bulletin board, icons I11 and I12 for voting for posted answers (comments) may be displayed so that test takers can evaluate comments on each question. The best answer is selected by voting using these icons. When the examinees press the icons I11 and I12, data indicating that is pressed is transmitted from the client terminal 20 to the server 10, and the server 10 counts the voting results. In this case, the control may be performed by the client terminal 20 and / or the server 10 so that the best answer selected by voting is displayed at the top.

  Next, a description will be given of an operation in the case where the examinee selects the “display match rate” menu on the menu selection screen. If “display match rate” is selected, the client terminal 20 transmits a request to acquire the data of the screen for displaying the match rate (hereinafter, referred to as “match rate display screen”) to the server 10 in step S24.

  In step S25, the server 10 receives, as a response to the received acquisition request, data for displaying the matching rate calculated for the examinee corresponding to the client terminal 20 that is the transmission source of the acquisition request, and the matching rate. Data indicating the pass possibility estimated based on the data is transmitted (output) to the client terminal 20. In step S26, the client terminal 20 displays the matching rate and the possibility of passing on the display device according to the data output from the server 10.

  FIG. 11 is a diagram showing an example of a screen displayed on the display device and showing the matching rate and the possibility of passing. In the example of FIG. 11, a numerical value indicating the coincidence rate between the answer of the examinee and the specific option is displayed for each subject, and a rank indicating the possibility of passing is displayed.

In this embodiment, the answer results of a plurality of examinees are totaled, a specific option is specified for each question, and the matching rate between the specified option and the answer result of each examinee is displayed on the client terminal 20. When a crack is included, an image indicating the crack is displayed. The examinee can easily grasp the state of his / her test by looking at the screen displayed on the client terminal 20.

  In particular, in this embodiment, the total score can be estimated immediately after the end of the test by totalizing the vote ratios of a plurality of examinees and displaying the coincidence ratio. In addition, there are cases where it is important from the viewpoint of passing that it is possible for a large number of test takers to answer the questions that have been answered, and where the passability estimated in this embodiment is more useful than actual scoring. There is also.

  In this embodiment, a bulletin board for discussing the cracking question is provided for each cracking question and provided to the examinee. The test taker can use this bulletin board to ask other test takers questions about the question, and to discuss. In this way, the examinee can discuss the cracking question that is ambiguous in estimating the pass, thereby increasing the accuracy of estimating the possibility of passing. In addition, by presenting the best answer on the bulletin board, the applicant's desire for approval can be satisfied and a high-quality commentary can be provided.

[2] Modifications The embodiment described above is merely an example of the embodiment of the present invention, and may be modified as follows. In addition, the above-described embodiment and each of the following modifications may be implemented in combination as needed.

(1) In the above-described embodiment, when the server 10 arranges a plurality of options provided for each question in descending order, the server 10 determines the number of correct answers in the order (nth) of the options, The question in which the percentage of the vote rate of the option of the rank ((n + 1) th rank) is equal to or higher than a predetermined threshold is defined as a cracking question (specific question). The method of identifying a crack is not limited to this. For example, the server 10 identifies a question in which the difference between the vote rate of the n-th choice and the vote rate of the (n + 1) -th choice is less than a predetermined threshold (for example, 30% point) as a crack question. Good. This threshold value may change according to the number of correct answers. As an example, for a question in which the number of correct answers is one (choice one), the threshold is 30% point, and for a question in which the number of correct answers is two, Is a 15% point threshold.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the server 10 specifies, as the cracking question, one satisfying the condition indicating that the difference between the vote rate of the n-th option and the vote rate of the (n + 1) th option is small. The method of specifying the question is not limited to this. For example, the server 10 may specify a question in which the relationship (for example, difference or ratio) of the ratio of two or more options included in the question satisfies a predetermined condition as a broken question. As an example, when the difference between the vote ratios of the (n + 1) th place and the (n + 2) th place is larger than a threshold, this question is specified as a broken question. Alternatively, when the ratio of the vote rate of the (n + 2) th rank to the vote rate of the (n + 1) th rank is smaller than the threshold, this question is specified as a crack question. In another example, the server 10 may specify the question as a broken question when the ratio of all options included in the question is a numerical value within a predetermined range. As an example, in an alternative problem with five choices, the vote rate of the first choice is 40 to 55%, the vote rate of the second choice is 30 to 50%, and the third place or less. This question is specified as a cracking question when the vote rate of is not more than 10%. In still another example, if the vote rate of the (n + 1) th option of the target question is larger than the average of the (n + 1) th vote rate of all questions, and there is a statistically significant difference between the two. This question is identified as a cracking question. Further, when specifying the cracking question, a plurality of conditions related to the vote rate of the option may be used in combination. For example, a question that satisfies two or more conditions among a plurality of conditions regarding the relationship between the vote ratios of options may be specified as a cracking question. As an example, a condition is used in which the total vote rate of the options whose vote rate is up to the (n + 1) th place is 80% or more, and the difference between the vote rates of the nth place and the (n + 1) th place is smaller than the threshold value. . Further, the function of specifying and displaying a crack may be omitted.

(2) In the above-described embodiment, the client terminal 20 displays the passability in a ranked manner, but the display mode of the passability is not limited to the above. For example, the client terminal 20 may display a numerical value (for example, “92%”) indicating the possibility of passing on the display device.

  In the above-described embodiment, a menu for displaying the matching rate and the possibility of passing is displayed on the menu selection screen (FIG. 7), and the matching rate and the possibility of passing are displayed by selecting this menu. Was. The timing at which the coincidence rate and the possibility of passing are displayed is not limited to this. For example, after the examinee transmits his / her own answer result (step S11 in FIG. 5), a screen (the screen in FIG. 11) in which the matching rate and the possibility of passing are displayed is displayed without displaying the menu selection screen. May be done. Further, in this case, control may be performed such that when the examinee scrolls down the screen while the screen of FIG. 11 is displayed, the aggregation result screen of FIG. 9 is displayed.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, an example has been described in which the server 10 estimates the possibility of passing by increasing the weight of the cracking question, but the method of estimating the possibility of passing is limited to the method described above. I can't. For example, the server 10 may determine the number of questions, the number of choices included in each question, the category of the question (e.g., mandatory, general, clinical, essay, general, etc. in the case of a physician national exam), and / or (difference in vote rate). The weight of the question may be weighted based on the condition in which the value of the vote rate itself (in addition to the ratio and the ratio) is considered.

(3) In the above-described embodiment, a site for past exercises for the next test using the tally result may be opened. In this case, a menu of “Past exercises” is displayed on the menu selection screen, and when the examinee selects this menu, a screen for past exercises is displayed. For example, the client terminal 20 displays a question sentence for each of a plurality of questions included in the target test, and displays a check box corresponding to each of the plurality of options. When the check box is selected by the examinee, data indicating the selection result is transmitted from the client terminal 20 to the server 10. The server 10 compares the option corresponding to the received data with the specific option, and determines whether or not the examinee's answer is correct.
According to this aspect, the answer tallying system 1 can provide the examinee with the past exercise and commentary site for the next test immediately after the test. In addition, test takers can practice past questions immediately after the test is made public.

  In the function of the past question exercise, the answer (comment) selected as the best answer for each question on the bulletin board described above may be provided to the client terminal 20 as a commentary on the question. In addition, the screen of the past exercise may be provided to the client terminal 20 after being adjusted for a smartphone, for example.

  Further, a function of managing the results of the examinees may be provided in the menu of the past exercises. For example, the server 10 may total the progress of learning and the correct answer rate for each field according to the result of the answer to the past question by the examinee, and provide the client terminal 20 with data indicating the total result. In addition, a function for marking questions for which the examinee has no confidence may be provided. By providing a function for managing the test taker's performance, the test taker can check the progress of his / her own study and the comprehension of each field. In addition, by marking questions that are not confident, it is possible to set questions to be reviewed later, and it is possible to proceed with learning more efficiently.

(4) In the above-described embodiment, the examinee had to perform user registration in order to use the answer totaling system 1, but a configuration that does not require user registration may be adopted. In this case, for example, the server 10 issues a temporary user ID (temporary user ID), the client terminal 20 displays the temporary user ID on a display device, and the examinee himself stores and uses the displayed temporary user ID. Thereby, the examinee may be identified. Further, in the above-described embodiment, the client terminal 20 may record the login information in a cookie (or a cache) of the Web browser, and may omit a user input related to the next and subsequent logins.

(5) In the above-described embodiment, the distribution diagram of the coincidence rate may be displayed on the client terminal 20. For example, a distribution chart in which the horizontal axis indicates the coincidence rate and the vertical axis indicates the frequency is displayed on the client terminal 20, and an image indicating where the coincidence rate of the examinee corresponding to the client terminal 20 is located is also shown. It may be displayed.

(6) In the above embodiment, the client terminal 20 exchanges data with the server 10 using a Web browser, but the application for using the answer totaling system 1 is not limited to the Web browser. For example, a dedicated application may be installed on the client terminal 20 and the application may control data exchange with the server 10.

  Further, the client terminal 20 may be a terminal such as a smartphone having a touch display, or may be a personal computer to which a user input is made by an input interface (for example, a mouse or a keyboard) other than the touch display.

(7) In the bulletin board according to the above-described embodiment, in order to improve the quality and quantity of comments, a rank may be given to examinees who have made comments that have received good evaluation. For example, the server 10 aggregates the voting results of the examinees, specifies the rank of the examinee who has made a comment whose evaluation exceeds a predetermined reference value as the predetermined rank, and indicates the specific result according to the aggregation result. Data may be output.

(8) The sharing of the functions in the answer totaling system 1 is not limited to those exemplified in the embodiment. A part of the function described as the function of the server 10 in the embodiment may be implemented in the client terminal 20. For example, a pass possibility estimation process may be implemented in the client terminal 20. Further, the hardware configurations of the server 10 and the client terminal 20 are not limited to those exemplified in the embodiment. The server 10 and the client terminal 20 may have any hardware configuration as long as the required functions can be realized.
