Description

{Curriculum Classification and Coding System Using Group Technology}

One embodiment of the present invention relates to a class classification and coding system using group technology.

As the development of science and technology and the globalization of society, the field of study has become more fragmented and specialized, and the curriculum of the university has been repeating the birth of various new subjects and the withdrawal of outdated subjects in order to cope with this social environment change. In the knowledge-based society, people need talents that can converge and apply knowledge in various related fields rather than expert knowledge in one field.

The number of elective courses is increasing rapidly in order to provide students with opportunities to take courses in various subjects, and the number of courses offered in ordinary four-year colleges is estimated to be more than 1,000. However, existing curriculum codes used in universities can be categorized into liberal arts or major courses in each major field, but there is no information about the relationship between the curriculums opened in different colleges or other major fields at all. It is almost impossible to search for courses that you want to enroll. In addition, it is not practically possible to arrange or look at such a large number of subjects as needed without the help of a computer.

Therefore, in most domestic universities, the curriculum code is assigned to each department or major for systematization of the curriculum, and it is expressed in the form of a table or in the form of a chart related to the curriculum. However, in this case, the subject code can be categorized into liberal arts or majors in each major field, but it does not include information on the relationship between the subjects opened in different major fields. Therefore, There is a problem in that it does not help at all.

In the case of foreign universities, MIMA (Mining Information for Management and Acquisition) search, which is a knowledge search engine of science and engineering fields developed in advance at Japan D University, is used to automatically It uses a comprehensive structuring and visualization system that finds relevant information from various media such as patents, papers, and technical data. The significance of this system is the first attempt to systematize and visualize the subject lists using powerful searching functions of MIMA search. It converts similar user input keywords into one standard name through normalization, recognizes the semantic relation, Can be placed in a scientific approach to calculating similarities.

An embodiment of the present invention provides a class classification and coding system using a group technology that can establish a new subject code system that can easily search similar subjects by applying a group technology technique to an existing subject code.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EXEMPLARY EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which those skilled in the art can readily implement the present invention.

In the present invention, in order to classify all the subjects according to similarity, the group technology is grouped into the code system so that the attributes of the subject syllabus are included in the code system. In other words, in the assigned subject code system, subjects with similar codes become subject groups with similar characteristics.

Therefore, according to the present invention, if a class classification and coding system capable of searching for similar subjects by the subject code can be implemented and the relation between the subject and the subject can be shown in the form of a single tree structure, And the diversity of the curriculum. In addition, students can easily select courses and provide important grounds for instructing students to take courses.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating a class classification and coding system using group technology according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a class classification and coding system operation using group technology according to an embodiment of the present invention. For example, a simplified flowchart.

Referring to FIG. 1, a class classification and coding system using group technology according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a subject database 10, a subject code input unit 20, a subject name input unit 30, a first subject search unit 40, a second course search unit 50, and a course output unit 60.

The curriculum database 10 includes a curriculum classification system in which curriculums of respective curriculums are hierarchically classified according to fields, and then each curriculum is given a unique code. In order to implement this operation, the subject database 10 includes an integrated database generation unit 110, a subject classification system database 120, a subject code database 130, and a subject management unit 140.

The integrated database generation unit 110 generates an integrated database that integrates college and department information, which provides a lecture on classes that can be taken in the school, and personal information of a lecturer who teaches a subject, by name for each subject. The integrated database generation unit 110 includes a teaching code database generation unit 111 that classifies teaching names into a series according to major and assigns codes, a major code database generation unit 112 that classifies the subject names into a series by major, ).

The curriculum classification system database 120 classifies each subject in the integrated database hierarchically according to fields as shown in [Table 2].

The curriculum code database 130 gives a unique code to each subject classified in the curriculum classification system database 120.

The curriculum management unit 140 creates and manages a curriculum classification system in which similar curriculums are grouped by matching curriculums assigned with unique codes classified into an integrated database and fields.

Also, the curriculum code database 130 and the curriculum management unit 140 can upload and change the newly added and changed curriculum or teaching information to the existing curriculum database by the administrator.

The course code input unit 20 inputs a code for a subject from a user, and the subject name input unit 30 inputs a subject name for the subject from the user. The curriculum code input unit 20 and the curriculum name input unit 30 are provided as a user interface screen for receiving information from a user or providing information to a user in a curriculum classification and coding system using the group technology. In other words, the class classification and coding system using the group technology operates basically as web-based, so the user interface screen is produced and stored in the form of a web document. Such a technique related to generation, transmission, data reception, and the like of the user interface screen is well known to those skilled in the art, and thus a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

The first class subject search unit 40 includes a first main class class subject search unit 410 for searching for main class subjects corresponding to codes of a first digit in a code for a subject inputted from a user in the class classification system, And a first classifying course search unit 420 for searching for general or practical subjects corresponding to the first digit after the first digit. For example, when the user inputs the 14-digit subject code, the first subject search unit 40 searches for the main classified subjects for the first 1-5 digits, The students will search for general or practical subjects.

The second subject search unit 50 outputs a main subject classification scheme including a main subject category similar to a subject name input from the user and included in the subject classification scheme in the subject name inputted by the user, A selection input unit 520 for inputting a user selection for the main curriculum classification system, a code generation unit for generating a temporary code based on the user selection and the curriculum database 10, A second main classification subject search unit 540 for searching for main classification subject lines corresponding to a code corresponding to a first digit based on the generated temporary code, And a second classifying subject search unit 550 for searching for general or practical subjects. For example, the second subject search unit 50 may search for a main subject classification system (i.e., a main category, a middle category, a small category) including a main category subject similar to a subject name input from a user, And outputs it through the input unit 520 to request the user to sequentially select and input the selection. Then, the code generating unit 530 generates a temporary code for the main subject classification system selected by the user based on the selection of the user and the subject database 10. Then, in the same manner as the operation of the first subject search unit 50, a main classification subject and a general or practical subject corresponding to the first digit and the first code after the first digit are sequentially searched based on the generated code .

Wherein the first code after the first digit is class information of the subject, and the next code of the first code is information on major, professor , And a code number indicating grade information. For example, if the course code is 14 digits, the first digit code may be a 1 to 5 digit code, the first code after the first digit may be the sixth code, and the next code of the first code Can be a 7 to 14 digit code. In addition, the class information of the subject includes general subject information and practice subject information, and the general subject information includes basic, essential, and enriched subject information, and the subject information includes basic and enrichment subject information.

The course output unit 60 outputs the subject matter searched from the first subject search unit 40 or the second subject search unit 50. [ For example, the curriculum output unit 60 may output information classified into general classes or practice classes to the main classification subject and the main classification subject, which are searched from the first subject search unit 40 or the second subject search unit 50, . At this time, the user can also output detailed information on the subject such as a name of the instructor, a contact, an established university and a department, a school year, etc., if desired.

An experimental example in which a class classification and coding system using the group technology configured as described above is applied will be described with reference to FIG. In this experimental example, the classification and coding of all the courses that are opened at K university in Korea are limited. The concrete approach is as follows: GT (Group Technology) coding of subject, , Result output (subject-related subject list, line / post-subject list, classification, etc.).

First, classification and coding of the subjects to be stored in the subject database 10 were conducted on about 250 subjects currently held at K engineering university. Accordingly, the courses belonging to the College of Engineering were listed, and comparative analysis of subjects related to each department was made, and similar courses were grouped and assigned codes. For example, the coding scheme is basically composed of 14 digits as shown in [Table 1].

Course Title Main Category
(Scholarship) Middle class
(Major) Small classification
(Detailed major) shape
(Level / type) Major serial number Professor Code grade 0 00 00 0 0000 000 0

Here, the major category is the area corresponding to the academic field and is given a single digit. For example, science and technology can award 5. In addition, the middle class is given further two digits in the field of study. For example, physics / chemistry can be given 15. In addition, the second category is assigned to the area corresponding to the detailed major among the majors. For example, health / sanitation can be given 10. In addition, the form gives one place as the area representing the form of the subject from the major subjects. For example, in the case of general subjects, there are three categories. The basic foundation is 1, the major required is 3, the majors are 5, and the design / practice / can do. The major serial number lists all major names in ascending order, the major courses in ascending order, and the four-digit code. For example, 3601 can be assigned to a major serial number. As with the major serial number, the professor code arranges all the professors and instructors in the university in ascending order by major and name, and assigns the serial number as a code. That is, three digits (for example, 301) can be assigned as a teaching code. The grade assigns a code to the corresponding grade. In other words, the grade may be given one place (for example, grade 1, grade 2, grade 3).

Table 2 below shows an example of the class classification and coding system for subcategories of science / technology (major classification) -> computers (middle classification).

In order to use the constructed subject database 10 as described above, two search methods may be provided to the user on the first screen, as shown in FIG.

If the user selects a search method based on the subject code (S10), the code is inputted through the code input unit (S15), the first main classified subject search unit 410 searches the subject database 10 (S40) So that the main classification subject lines having the same first digits as the first five digits of the code can be shown in the posterior relationship. That is, if the first five digits of the code number indicating the major classification, the middle classification, and the small classification are the same, it can be judged that the subjects are very similar to each other. More specifically, a list of the same five-digit code is searched for, and the sixth code, which is the second digit next to the first digit of the list searched through the first classifying subject search unit 420, is 1, 3, 5, it means a general subject, and it can be displayed in three stages of basic, essential, and deepening (S55). Further, it is also possible that the sixth rank of the list, which is the second digit of the list searched through the first ranking class subject search unit 420 If the code is 7 or 8, it means Design / Practice / Project course, 7 can be displayed as basic, 8 can be displayed as 2 steps (S60). If you click on a specific course name in the list of courses shown in this way, you will be shown detailed information about the course and the contact information of the instructor so that you can answer questions when necessary.

Next, if the user selects a search method based on the name of the course (S10), the user inputs a name of the course through the course name input unit (S20). That is, as shown in [Table 2], if the user selects the academic field to which the subject belongs in the order of the major category, the middle category, and the minor category, the temporary code for the selected subject is stored in the code information database 10 (S30). For example, if the name of the subject is "Java language", the five-digit code 52510 is classified as the science / technology 5, the computer 25, and the language / compiler 10 as shown in [Table 2].

Then, the first main classification subject search unit 410 searches for the similar subject in the subject database 10 (S40).

If the first five-digit code is found, the third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, tenth, tenth, Output (S50, S55), and if it is a design / practice / project subject, output (S50, S60) in two steps of basic and deepening. In other words, similar subject searches by subject names can search not only subjects with similar names, but also subject subjects whose names are different, but whose contents are similar. Here, a code is given as a basis when the title of the subject is based on or the first place is included, or when it is advanced, or when the second place is included, in other cases.

For example, the coding scheme for a subject name called Java language can be configured as [Table 3].

In the present invention, if group technology is used for class classification and coding, it is possible to easily classify the classes without developing a complex search engine, thereby providing a standardized curriculum coding system that replaces the existing curriculum code system. (Such as teacher name, contact information, open university, department, and grade) can be retrieved as well as retrieval of the relation (similarity, posterior number relation, etc.) of the subject.

Therefore, according to the class classification and coding system using the group technology according to the present invention, it is possible to make convenient enrollment of students, and in particular, among the various courses opened in different universities or majors, You can do it. In addition, students are encouraged to use self-orientation to help them set their own learning goals and to select appropriate courses, and to provide graduate students and professors with research such as lecture exploration and convergence development through layering and grouping of related subjects It is possible to apply for activities.

As described above, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, but can be applied to a class classification and coding system using group technology according to the present invention. It will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that various changes in form and details may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
