Description

The present invention relates to an information processing device, an image forming device and a program.

In recent years, many universities have introduced LMS (Learning Management System) for the purpose of distributing digitized teaching materials and assignments through networks, or interacting with students.

For example, after collecting the answer sheet of the task given to the student in the lecture, the teacher fills in the grade in the predetermined column of the answer sheet, the multifunction device reads the bundle of the answer sheet, digitizes it, and registers it in the LMS. .. By doing so, the student can take out his / her answer preparation from the LMS without having the next lecture.

By the way, the teacher may not fill in the score at the time of scoring, or may make a sweet and spicy adjustment to adjust the overall score after scoring. In this case, it is necessary to extract from the bundle of answer sheets before having the multifunction device read the answer sheet for which the entry omission is noticed or the answer sheet to be adjusted for sweetness and spiciness and register it in the LMS.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

Embodiment 1.
FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an overall system configuration of a lecture support system and a block configuration of a multifunction device in the present embodiment. FIG. 1 shows a configuration in which a multifunction device 10, an LMS 1, a student terminal 2, and a teacher terminal 3 are connected to LAN 4. The lecture support system in this embodiment is installed in a school campus such as a university and is used by teachers, students, etc. to support lectures conducted at the school.

The multifunction device 10 is a form of an image forming apparatus equipped with various functions such as a copy function and a scanning function, and is a device having a built-in computer. In this embodiment, it is assumed that the teacher will use it. LMS1 is a learning support system that retains and manages information related to the support of users (teachers, students, etc.) involved in lectures. The student terminal 2 is an information processing device realized by a personal computer (PC) or the like and used by students. The student accesses the LMS 1 from the student terminal 2. The teacher terminal 3 is an information processing device realized by a PC or the like and used by teachers.

FIG. 2 is a hardware configuration diagram of the multifunction device 10 according to the present embodiment. As described above, the multifunction device 10 is a device having a built-in computer. In FIG. 2, the CPU 21 controls the operation of various mechanisms mounted on the present apparatus such as the scanner 24 and the printer engine 26 according to the program stored in the ROM 29. The address data bus 22 connects to various mechanisms to be controlled by the CPU 21 to communicate data. The operation panel 23 accepts instructions from the user and displays information. The scanner 24 reads a document set by the user and stores it as electronic data in an HDD (Hard Disk Drive) 25 or the like. The HDD 25 stores an electronic document or the like read by using the scanner 24. The printer engine 26 prints an image on the output paper according to an instruction from the control program executed by the CPU 21. The network interface (IF) 27 is used for connecting LAN4 and transmitting / receiving data such as transmission of scan data generated by the present apparatus to LMS1 and transmission / reception of e-mail. The RAM 28 is used as a work memory when executing a program and as a communication buffer when transmitting and receiving electronic data. The ROM 29 stores various programs related to control of the present apparatus, encryption of electronic data, and transmission / reception of electronic data. When various programs are executed, each component described later exerts a predetermined processing function. The external media interface (IF) 30 is an interface with an external memory device such as a USB memory or a flash memory.

The LMS 1, the student terminal 2, and the teacher terminal 3 may all be formed by a general-purpose computer. That is, it is formed by mounting a storage means such as a CPU, ROM, RAM, and HDD, a communication means, a user interface, and the like.

Returning to FIG. 1, the multifunction device 10 includes a reading unit 11, a list information creating unit 12, a designated unit 13, a reading control unit 14, an operation control unit 15, a notification unit 16, a list information storage unit 17, a bundle information storage unit 18, and a bundle information storage unit 18. It has an answer sheet information storage unit 19. The components not used in the description of the present embodiment will be omitted.

The reading unit 11 cooperates with the scanner 24 to read a document placed on a document table (not shown). In this embodiment, the answer sheet corresponds to the manuscript. Then, the student ID number, name, and scoring result are obtained from each answer sheet by OCR (Optical Character Recognition). The list information creation unit 12 collectively creates list information of the scoring result by collecting the information acquired by the reading unit 11. The designation unit 13 causes the faculty member to specify one or more answer sheets to be extracted by the faculty member from the displayed list information of the scoring results, and acquires the document specific information that identifies each of the designated documents. .. In the present embodiment, the teacher designates the answer sheet for which the score is not entered and the answer sheet for which the overall score is adjusted after the score is adjusted. However, students usually do not submit multiple answer sheets for the tasks given in the lecture, but submit only one answer sheet, so there is a one-to-one relationship between the student and the answer sheet. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the student ID number is used as the document identification information acquired by the designated unit 13.

In the reading control unit 14, when the answer sheets forming a bundle of answer sheets are sequentially read by the scanner 24, the document identification information extracted from the read answer sheets is the student registration number acquired by the designated unit 13. If they match, the scanner 24 is controlled to pause the reading of the bundle of answer sheets. As described above, the reading control unit 14 also uses the student ID number as the document identification information for specifying the answer sheet.

As will be described later, in the present embodiment, the scanner 24 is made to read the bundle of answer sheets twice, when creating the list information of the scoring results and when registering the scan data of the answer sheets in LMS1. The operation control unit 15 determines whether the scanner 24 has read the bundle of answer sheets for the first time or the second time, and when the scanner 24 reads the answer sheet for the first time, that is, at the time of the first reading, the list information creating unit 12 generates the list information of the scoring results. The operation is controlled so that the reading control unit 14 controls the case where the reading is not performed, that is, at the time of the second reading. If the student ID number extracted from the answer sheet read by the scanner 24 by the reading control unit 14 is not included in the scoring result list information, the notification unit 16 notifies the user to that effect.

The list information storage unit 17 stores the list information of the scoring results created by the list information creation unit 12. After that, when the designated unit 13 acquires the student ID number, information that can specify the student ID number is added to the list information of the scoring result. The specific data structure of the list information will be described later. The motion control unit 15 uses the subject or subject and the set of date and time entered in the answer sheet in order to determine whether the reading of the bundle of answer sheets is the first time or not, but the bundle information storage unit 18 is used. , Information used when the operation control unit 15 determines the number of readings is stored as bundled information. In the answer sheet information storage unit 19, information on the form including the position information of each item such as scoring and student ID number on the answer sheet, and information on the composition of the answer sheet such as the number of questions given to the students in the lecture are set and registered in advance. Will be done.

Each component 11 to 16 in the multifunction device 10 is realized by a cooperative operation between the computer mounted on the multifunction device 10 and the program operated by the CPU 21 mounted on the computer. Further, each of the storage units 17 to 19 is realized by the HDD 25 mounted on the multifunction device 10. Alternatively, the RAM 28 or an external storage means may be used via the network.

Further, the program used in the present embodiment can be provided not only by communication means but also by storing it in a computer-readable recording medium such as a USB memory. Programs provided from communication means and recording media are installed in a computer, and various processes are realized by sequentially executing the programs by the CPU of the computer.

FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example of an answer sheet to be processed in the present embodiment. The answer sheet is provided with a scoring result, a student ID number, a name, a date and time when the assignment (Practice 1) was performed, and each column in which the subject is entered in a predetermined area. As illustrated in FIG. 3, when a plurality of questions are included in the exercise, an entry field for the score of each question is provided in a predetermined area. The answer sheet information storage unit 19 stores information about the answer sheet, that is, information such as position information (coordinate information) in each column, the number of questions, and the number of answer sheets. As illustrated in FIG. 3, the answer sheet for one task may be composed of a plurality of sheets, but in the present embodiment, the first sheet is the scoring result (total value of each question). Is entered, and the second and subsequent sheets are linked to the first sheet by the student ID number. In the following description, for convenience of explanation, unless particular attention is paid, the answer sheet corresponding to the task will be described as being composed of one sheet.

When the faculty member collects the answer sheet for the task given to the student in the lecture, he / she writes a score in the designated column of the answer sheet. After that, the bundle of answer sheets is read by the multifunction device 10, digitized, and registered in LMS1. As a result, the student can log in to LMS1 from the student terminal 2 and access it to receive his / her answer sheet via LMS1 before the next lecture is conducted. As described above, in the present embodiment, the answer sheet is returned to the student by registering it in LMS1.

By the way, as mentioned above, when the teacher forgets to enter the scoring result in the predetermined column (missing entry), or wants to adjust the overall scoring by referring to the scoring result after scoring (sweet and spicy adjustment). In some cases, the scoring results may be entered and corrected (hereinafter collectively referred to as "correction"). However, it is extremely troublesome and inefficient to check the graded answer sheets one by one. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the answer sheet to be corrected can be taken out from the bundle of answer sheets by using the list of scoring results. As an example, when registering in LMS1 using the multifunction device 10, the scoring result can be confirmed and the answer sheet to be corrected can be specified. Hereinafter, the process of modifying the scoring result in the present embodiment will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG.

As mentioned above, when the teacher collects the answer sheet of the task given to the student in the lecture, he / she writes the score in the predetermined column of the answer sheet. Then, the faculty member logs in to the multifunction device 10 and specifies which lecture (subject) and which task (exercise 1) answer sheet is from the predetermined designation screen displayed on the operation panel 23. After that, the instructor sets a bundle of answer sheets on the platen (not shown) of the multifunction device 10 and presses a desired button from the reading start screen displayed on the operation panel 23 to cause the scanner 24 to read the answer sheets. FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an example of a reading instruction screen according to the present embodiment, but here, since a bundle of answer sheets is read for the first time, the reading button 31 is pressed.

When the reading unit 11 reads the answer sheets one by one as the scanner 24 starts operating (step 101), the reading unit 11 performs OCR on a predetermined column of the read answer sheets to obtain a student ID number, a name, and a score. Get the result (step 102). The above process is repeated for all the answer sheets (Y in step 103).

When the above-mentioned information is acquired from all the answer sheets (N in step 103), the list information creation unit 12 collects such information, creates list information of the scoring result, and registers it in the list information storage unit 17 (N). Step 104).

FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an example of a data structure of list information created by the list information creation unit 12. The list information records each student's record in information that identifies which task in which lecture is a list of scoring results (in FIG. 6, the lecture is "mathematics" and the task is "exercise 1"). In the present embodiment, the information specified by the faculty member is used for the lecture and the assignment, but the lecture and the assignment may be set by reading from the answer sheet. Each record is registered in association with the student ID number, name, and score (scoring result) of the item number corresponding to the serial number. Although the information of three students is shown in FIG. 6, there are actually as many records as the number of answer sheets (students) constituting the bundle of answer sheets.

When the list information is created, the designation unit 13 displays the list information on the operation panel 23 in a table format (step 105). FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an example of a designation screen when the created list information is displayed in a table format. As is clear from the display example of the designation screen, the correction column is associated with each record.

The faculty member selects the student who wants to correct the scoring result by referring to the scoring result displayed in the list. Since the presence or absence of selection can be expressed as flag information, various methods such as specifying the selected record by changing the display form of the selected record can be considered. In the form of, as illustrated in FIG. 7, a circle “○” is added to the correction column. As mentioned above, since there is a one-to-one relationship between the student and the answer sheet, selecting a student from the list is equivalent to selecting the answer sheet.

When the scoring results are displayed in a list as in this embodiment, it becomes easier to understand the tendency of scoring for students, such as the scoring becoming looser (that is, the transition to a higher score) or becoming stricter. Therefore, it becomes easier to adjust the sweetness and spiciness. Also, if there is an omission, the score column will be blank so it is easy to find. Since the record in which the score column is blank is not filled in, the designated unit 13 may automatically set a circle in the correction column without having the faculty member specify it.

When the faculty member specifies the answer sheet to be corrected before registration to LMS1 and then presses the OK button 33, the designation unit 13 accepts the answer sheet (student) designated as the correction target, and the list information storage unit 17 Among the records included in the list information of the scoring results registered in, the record of the answer sheet (student) designated as the correction target is added with the correction flag information and saved (step 106). In addition, the designation unit 13 may be overwritten and saved with the list information to which the presence or absence of modification is added.

FIG. 8 is a diagram showing an example of the data structure of the list information after the presence or absence of correction is specified by the faculty member. In FIG. 8, the correction flag information corresponds to the “correction” item, and a circle “◯” is added to the set record.

After designating the answer sheet to be corrected as described above, the instructor sets the bundle of answer sheets again in the reading unit of the scanner 24 of the multifunction device 10, and the reading start screen displayed on the operation panel 23 (FIG. 5). ), Press the reread button 32.

When the reading unit 11 reads the answer sheets one by one as the scanner 24 starts operating (step 107), the reading unit 11 acquires the student ID number by performing OCR on a predetermined column of the read answer sheets (step 107). Step 108). Subsequently, the read control unit 14 refers to the correction flag information of the list information registered in the list information storage unit 17, and sets the correction flag information of the record corresponding to the school registration number obtained from the read answer sheet. If not (N in step 109), that is, if the read answer sheet is not designated as a correction target by the teacher, the process moves to the next answer sheet until there are no unprocessed answer sheets (in step 112). Y).

Answer sheets that are not subject to revision may be registered in LMS1 at this point. That is, each time the answer sheet is read, it may be registered in LMS1, or a bundle of answer sheets may be collectively registered in LMS1 after the end of this process.

Here, when the correction flag information of the record corresponding to the student ID number obtained from the read answer sheet is set (Y in step 109), that is, the read answer sheet is designated as the correction target by the teacher. If so, the reading control unit 14 controls the scanner 24 (reading unit 11) to suspend the reading of the bundle of answer sheets (step 110).

By suspending, the answer sheet to be corrected is at the top of the reading unit of the multifunction device 10. Therefore, the teacher can easily take out the answer sheet to be corrected from the bundle of answer sheets. In addition, the faculty member will correct the scoring result for the extracted answer sheet, but the handling of the corrected answer sheet may be handled appropriately. For example, the correction flag information may be cleared and then read again by the multifunction device 10, or the collation with the list information (step 109) may not be performed. The handling after the answer sheet to be corrected is corrected is not included in this process. The faculty member will process it separately and register it in LMS1.

When the reading by the scanner 24 is temporarily stopped, the reading control unit 14 displays the continuation instruction screen illustrated in FIG. 9 on the operation panel 23. When the faculty member presses the continuation button 35 from the continuation instruction screen, the reading control unit 14 instructs the scanner 24 to resume reading the bundle of answer sheets in response to the continuation instruction from the faculty member (Y in step 111). .. Then, the above-mentioned processing is repeated until there are no unprocessed answer sheets (Y in step 112).

On the other hand, when the stop button 36 is pressed from the continuation instruction screen, the reading control unit 14 does not cause the scanner 24 to restart reading the bundle of answer sheets in response to the stop instruction (N in step 111). Then, this process ends. Further, when the above processing is performed on all the answer sheets (N in step 112), the processing ends.

According to the present embodiment, the reading of the bundle of answer sheets can be temporarily stopped when the answer sheet to be corrected is read, so that the answer sheet to be corrected can be easily taken out.

By the way, in the present embodiment, the bundle of answer sheets is read twice as described above. Whether it is the first time or the second time can be determined by the button selected from the reading instruction screen shown in FIG. However, there is a possibility that the teacher may make a mistake in selecting the button. Therefore, in the present embodiment, in step 102, the date and time and the subject are acquired according to the time when the student ID number, the name and the scoring result are read from the read answer sheet.

That is, when information is acquired from the answer sheet by OCR, the motion control unit 15 sets the acquired date and time and the subject as bundled information, and if this bundled information is not registered in the bundled information storage unit 18, it is being read. It is determined that the bundle of answer sheets has been read for the first time, that is, the first reading, and this bundle information is registered in the bundle information storage unit 18. Then, the list information creation unit 12 is controlled to operate. On the other hand, when the bundle information is registered in the bundle information storage unit 18, it is determined that the bundle of answer sheets being read is not the first reading, that is, the second reading. Then, the reading control unit 14 is controlled to operate.

With this configuration, it is possible to deal with operational mistakes by teachers, and it is not necessary to prepare a reading instruction screen. Even if the reading instruction screen is prepared, it is possible to standardize the buttons for starting reading without providing the reading button 31 and the re-reading button 32 separately.

Further, in the present embodiment, although the bundle of answer sheets is read twice as described above, it is possible that the teacher mistakenly reads the bundle of different answer sheets as the second time. Therefore, in the above description, when reading the bundle of answer sheets for the second time, in step 108, the list information storage unit 17 is referred to, and the correction flag information corresponding to the student ID number read from the answer sheet in step 107 is set. However, the student ID number read from the answer sheet may be collated with all the student ID numbers registered in the list information storage unit 17. In other words, if the student ID number obtained from the second reading of the answer sheet bundle is not registered in the list information created by the first reading of the answer sheet bundle, the answer will be different from the first and second answers. It can be determined that it is a bundle of paper. Basically, it is considered that the judgment can be made by the first read (first) answer sheet. However, the student corresponding to the first answer sheet is receiving an assignment in another lecture, and the faculty member mistakenly reads the bundle of answer sheets for the assignment given in the other lecture for the second time. There is a logical possibility that it will be treated as. Therefore, it is preferable to collate the student ID number read in step 107 with the student ID number registered in the list information storage unit 17 not only on the first sheet but on the subsequent answer sheet. be.

In addition, it is possible to assume that multiple tasks will be given in one lecture. For example, if two tasks are given in a lecture, the teacher should have the teacher read the bundle of answer sheets for the first task when reading the bundle of answer sheets for the second time. It is logically possible to accidentally read a bunch of answer sheets. In this case, it is not possible to detect an error in the bundle of answer sheets only by collating the student ID number. Therefore, in step 107, the scoring result may be read together with the student ID number. That is, in the above explanation, what was collated only by the student ID number is collated by the pair of the student ID number and the scoring result. As a result, even if a bundle of answer sheets for other tasks given in one lecture is mistakenly read, it can be determined that the bundle of answer sheets is different from the first and second times. However, it is logically possible that the student corresponding to the first read answer sheet will accidentally get the same score on the first and second tasks. Therefore, the collation between the student ID number and the score (scoring result) read in step 107 and the student ID number and the scoring result registered in the list information storage unit 17 is not performed only on the first sheet, but on the subsequent answer sheet. It is preferable to do so in.

As another method of the present embodiment, it is possible that the list of scoring results is not limited to the one generated by scanning. In this case, the list information created by an arbitrary method may be stored in the list information storage unit 17 and used when selecting the correction target.

Embodiment 2.
In the first embodiment, the teacher has specified the answer sheet to be corrected by using the shared multifunction device 10. However, in that case, the faculty member will occupy the multifunction device 10 during that time, and the faculty member himself may not want the work contents to be seen by the people around him. Further, since the screen size of the operation panel 23 is relatively small, it may be desired to work with a device having a relatively large screen size from the viewpoint of information visibility and the like.

Therefore, the present embodiment is characterized in that the answer sheet to be corrected can be designated by the teacher terminal 3 at his / her own seat.

The system configuration and the hardware configuration in the present embodiment may be the same as those in the first embodiment. Further, the content of the process may be basically the same as that of the first embodiment. However, the difference is that the list information of the scoring results is displayed on the operation panel 23 in step 105, but is displayed on the teacher terminal 3.

That is, when the list information is created in step 104, the designation unit 13 displays the download instruction screen illustrated in FIG. 10 on the operation panel 23. When the faculty member presses the OK button 37, the designation unit 13 subsequently displays the download screen illustrated in FIG. 11 on the operation panel 23. When the teacher presses the download button 38, the designation unit 13 transmits the scoring result list information to the teacher terminal 3. The destination teacher terminal 3 may be specified by referring to the teacher master or the like based on the login information of the multifunction device 10.

The teacher returns to his / her own seat and performs a predetermined operation on the teacher terminal 3 to display the designated screen illustrated in FIG. 7 on the Web browser operated by the teacher terminal 3. When the teacher presses the OK button 33 after designating the answer sheet to be corrected in the same manner as in the first embodiment, the designation unit 13 that detects the pressing displays the upload screen illustrated in FIG. 12 on the teacher terminal 3. Display it on a working Web browser. Then, when the teacher presses the upload button 39, the designation unit 13 accepts the answer sheet (student) designated as the correction target sent from the teacher terminal 3, and stores the list information as in the first embodiment. It is stored in the unit 17 (step 106). Since other processes may be the same as those in the first embodiment, the description thereof will be omitted.

Embodiment 3.
In each of the above embodiments, for convenience of explanation, the answer sheet corresponding to the task is described as being composed of one sheet. In the present embodiment, a case where the answer sheet is composed of a plurality of sheets will be described. In the present embodiment, each answer sheet constituting the answer sheet is referred to as "paper", and the answer sheet composed of a plurality of sheets is referred to as "answer sheet".

For example, when the answer sheet is composed of 10 sheets, the scoring result is usually written on the first sheet. Even if it is written on another sheet such as the final page (10th sheet), it can be specified by referring to the answer sheet information. In this embodiment, it is assumed that the score column is provided on the first sheet.

According to the above explanation, since the teacher wants to correct the scoring result on the answer sheet, the reading control unit 14 suspends the reading by the scanner 24 when the first sheet provided with the score column is read. , The rest of the paper that does not have a score column may not be paused.

Further, in the above explanation, the case of suspending on a form having a scoring result entry field has been described as an example, but the form (page) to be suspended may be separately specified to the faculty member or the like.

For example, as shown in FIG. 3 as an example of the answer sheet, the task may include a plurality of questions. FIG. 13 is a diagram showing list information of scoring results when a plurality of questions are included in the task, and shows list information of scoring results after the correction flag information is designated by the designation unit 13. As shown in FIG. 13, a correction column is provided for each question. In other words, the correction flag information can be set for each question. As a result, if the faculty member wants to correct only the score of a specific question, he / she may set the correction flag information corresponding to the question and suspend it at the page where the score of the question is entered.

By the way, in each of the above embodiments, the bundle of answer sheets is read twice. Of these, the first reading of the bundle of answer sheets is to create list information of the scoring results. Then, the teacher is asked to specify the answer sheet to be corrected from the list information. That is, this is to specify the answer sheet for which the scoring result is corrected before registering the answer sheet in LMS1 by reading the bundle of answer sheets for the second time. Therefore, it is not necessary to read a bundle of answer sheets because the teacher only needs to specify the answer sheet to be corrected. In this embodiment, in order to improve the efficiency of the work of creating a list of student ID numbers, the list information of the scoring results is created and specified by the faculty member. All you have to do is identify and create a list of student ID numbers that correspond to the identified answer sheet. In the present embodiment, the acquisition means for acquiring the document-specific information (student ID number) that specifies the answer sheet is composed of the reading unit 11, the list information creation unit 12, and the designation unit 13, but other means are used. It may be configured.

Further, in the present embodiment, the answer sheet has been described as an example of a document, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, it can be applied to other documents and uses, such as scanning an application form with missing required items from an application form such as a loan with a scanner 24 and suspending the application form before registering data.
