Abstract

PURPOSE:To facilitate generating course wares by analyzing the control code of data to generate a control table and an information file and using information in the control table to generate automatically a program in accordance with the pattern of a frame. CONSTITUTION:A teaching material developer 1 inputs data related to the frame of teaching materials as images of a word processor and stores them in a teaching material source file 6; and in this case, control codes are added to character strings of answer groups of correct answers and choices, hints, etc., and control codes in data are analyzed by a frame analyzing part 4. Frame data and a control table generated by the analyzing part 4 are stored in a frame file 7 and a control table file 8 respectively, and a program generating part 5 generates a program in accordance with the pattern of the frame determined by combination of control codes inputted on a basis of the control table and outputs the program to an object file 9.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention is based on CA I (Computer As5ist).
The present invention relates to a method for easily generating a teaching material program for an ed Instruction system through simple input. [Prior art] A CAI system in which learners learn while interacting with an information processing device uses hardware such as an information processing device and a terminal for learners, and a CAI language processor and learning control program. It consists of software and elements called courseware, such as teaching content (text). Among these, courseware needs to be created by a specialist in education related to the learning concerned, so several types of CAI languages have been developed and provided as languages for material creators to create courseware. .

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

However, since creating courseware using the conventional CAI language requires understanding the CAI language before writing programs, it is difficult for the general public, including those who do not have much interest in or knowledge about information processing devices, to create courseware. In view of these conventional problems, the present invention has been developed by: The purpose is to provide a system that allows educational personnel who do not have knowledge about information processing devices to easily create courseware without prior study. According to the present invention, as described in the claims, a control code is used in a system for creating a teaching content text for a CAI system in which a learner learns while interacting with an information processing device. A means is provided for creating a control table and a file of information related to a frame to be displayed as a screen on a display device by analyzing the control code of data input as a character string attached, and using the information in the control table. This is achieved by a teaching material development method characterized in that a program is automatically generated according to a frame pattern determined by a combination of control codes input.

[Effect]

In the above method, if the teaching material developer attaches a control code to the sentence related to the question and inputs it using the same method as in a word processor, the system analyzes the control code and performs learning based on the input sentence. Automatically Generates Program to Display Text Frame O [Embodiment] FIG. 1 is a functional block diagram of one embodiment of the present invention,
1 is a teaching material developer, 2 is a learner, 3 is a word processor,
4 represents a frame analysis section, 5 a program generation section, 6 a teaching material source file, 7 a frame file, 8 a control table file, 9 an object file, and 10 a teaching machine. Developer 1 is responsible for the teaching material 7 --
Enter data related to the system using a word processor. During input, control codes are added to character strings such as correct answers, answer choices, and hints. The input data is stored in the teaching material source file 60.Then, the frame analysis unit 4 analyzes the control codes in these data, creates a frame data E control table, and stores it in the frame file 7 or control table, respectively. The @program main generation section 5 stores in the file 8 generates a program based on the control table and outputs it to the object file 9.

The logic of the program and the structure of the screen are determined by the frame pattern, solution, number of hints, etc. found from the combination of input control codes.

Hereinafter, the operation of this embodiment will be explained based on a specific example. Figure 2 is a diagram showing an example of a frame pattern.
, ), (b) are examples of patterns where the learner enters the answer in alphanumeric characters from the keyboard (input type), and (c) is an example of a pattern where the learner presses the ENTER key to answer (in Japanese, the answer is 1). An example of a pattern when displaying (display type) (
d) shows an example of a pattern in which the learner selects an answer from among the options and inputs a number (selective type).

Data input by the teaching material developer is performed by adding control codes to frame-by-frame text in the image of a word processor. Examples of input data for each type shown in Figure 2 are shown below.@The characters enclosed in brackets [ ] in the input data represent control codes (the types and functions of control codes will be explained later). Figure 2 (a)

BRI Denma (BI3 (BR1 mode [BF3 [QE]]) Also, in the case of an input frame, it is possible to display a hint when the learner gives an incorrect answer. Figure 3 shows a hint on the screen. This is a diagram showing an example of displaying the screen shown in (a) when the learner makes a wrong answer. If the learner makes a wrong answer, the screen shown in (bl) is displayed. To make the pattern appear, enter the following:

“(QS) 2 to the 3rd power is (ASI 8 (Ag3),
(HT) 2 to the nth power means multiplying 2 n times.
CHEI (HTI 2 to the 3rd power is 2X2X2) (QE)" The meaning or function of each control code mentioned above is as follows. (QS) ~ (QE)... ...Represents the start/end of one frame worth of questions. (As) ~ [AE] ......Indicates that the alphanumeric characters in between are the correct answers for input type or multiple choice type. It is allowed that there are multiple solutions in the represented 01 frame, in which case (1) in the answer frame will be displayed on the screen in the order in which the solutions appear.

(2) Replaced with...

Only one solution per frame is allowed @ (BRI~[BE:]...The strings in between are each answer forming the answer group of the selection type frame.・Numbers are given in the order of appearance on the screen.

(HTI~[)IEI... Indicates that the character string sandwiched in the middle is a hint displayed when the learner gives an incorrect answer in the case of an input type frame. Hints are numbered in the order they appear on the screen, with the first hint being the first hint, and the second hint being 28′1°°°.
