Of course, the test paper authoring tool 100 may register the item through a separate interface.

For example, if the document is written in a Korean word processor, the user can select the portion 10 with an input device (eg, a mouse or keyboard). When the user copies and pastes the selected portion 10 to the second region 30 through the input device (eg, a mouse or a keyboard), the selected portion 10 is selected in the second region 30. It may be displayed and stored in the question DB 140. At this time, the portion 10 registered in the second area is stored in the form of a predetermined file recognizable by a word processor provided by the test paper authoring tool 100 so that the user can edit it again and the question DB 140 Can be registered to. For example, when the user selects the portion 10 and registers the portion 10 in a predetermined manner, the registration module 140 stores the selected portion 10 in the form of block storage to select the selected portion 10. It can be saved as a separate Korean word processor file.

Alternatively, when the document is created by the MS word processor, when the user registers the selected part 10 in the second area 30 by a predetermined method (for example, copy and paste), the registration module 130 ) May generate the selected portion 10 in a predetermined file format (eg, rtf format) and store it in the question DB 140. As such, the registration module 130 may generate corresponding data for each item registered in the second area 30 and store the data in the question DB 140, and the stored data is provided by the test paper authoring tool 100. Is stored in a form recognizable by a word processor (eg, an existing commercial word processor or a separate word processor provided by the test paper authoring tool 100), so that a user can edit a registered item in a general word processor. Easy to edit

Therefore, as in the conventional test paper authoring tool, there is an effect that it is not easy to register in the DB including the problems, or to improve the portion that the user cannot easily edit the registered problem again.

In addition to the copy-en paste or drag-and-drop for registering the items as described above, the test paper authoring tool 100 may provide a separate user interface (eg, a menu interface), and when the user selects the user interface, The selected portion 10 may be registered as the second area 30.

In addition, the test paper authoring tool 100 may provide a predetermined interface 40 for registering item attribute information of the item in addition to the item. As described above, the item attribute information may include various information for classifying or classifying the item. As shown in FIG. 2 to register such information in the question DB 140 in association with the question, an interface 40 for registering a curriculum, a subject, a grade, a difficulty level, a title, and the like, may be used. Authoring tool 100 may provide. The form and type of the interface 40 is only one example, and it can be easily inferred by those skilled in the art that various implementations are possible.

In addition, the test paper authoring tool 100 may generate data recognizable by the test paper authoring tool 100 for each item through the registration module 140, and register the item through this. Therefore, it is possible to easily provide a variety of use environment by the addition of a function (fuction) or a module capable of recognizing a document produced by a variety of existing commercial word processor. Accordingly, the test paper authoring tool 100 can directly use a commercial word processor or provide a compatible word, so that the user can apply the usage of the word processor that he or she originally used.

Based on the registered information and the information on the items, the control module 110 may generate a test paper. As described above with reference to FIG. 3, the control module 110 may generate test paper corresponding to the test paper generation criteria received in response to the test paper generation request signal. To this end, the control module 110 extracts a question corresponding to the test paper generation criterion from the information stored in the question DB 140, and extracts the question to the test paper template corresponding to the test paper template based on preset test paper template information. Can be generated. As described above, the test paper template may be manufactured by a user.

The generated test paper can be easily edited / edited by the user. This is because each item stored in the item DB 140 is stored in a data format that can be recognized and compatible in a word processor provided by the test paper authoring tool 100. Accordingly, the test paper authoring tool 100 may receive an edit request signal of the registered item and perform an edit corresponding to the received edit request signal. The edit request signal may be used as a meaning including a signal corresponding to a series of actions performed by a user using an input device (eg, a mouse or a keyboard). That is, the edit request signal is not only a single event performed by a user (eg, a mouse movement, a click, or a single key stroke through the keyboard) but also a plurality of events (eg, a mouse movement, a click). , A combination of key strokes).

By the plurality of events, the test paper authoring tool 100 may receive a request for replacing, deleting, or adding a request for at least one of the problems included in the test paper, and at least based on the received signal. At least one of the replacement, deletion, or addition of one problem may be performed.
