First, the configuration of the entire system according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.

As shown in FIG. 1, the entire system according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a smart terminal 10 used by students, a reading support client 20 installed as a mobile application in the smart terminal 10, and reading support. It consists of a reading support server 30 that provides a reading support service in conjunction with the client 20 . It may be configured to further include a database 40 for storing additionally necessary data. In addition, the smart terminal 10 and the reading support server 30 perform data communication through the network 80 .

First, the smart terminal 10 is a mobile terminal used by a user or a student, and is a mobile terminal equipped with a normal computing function such as a smart phone, a phablet, or a tablet PC. In particular, the smart terminal 10 is a terminal on which a mobile application (or app, application) and the like can be installed and executed.

Meanwhile, the smart terminal 10 may be a mobile terminal of a teacher (or leader) in addition to students. That is, a teacher or leader can also participate as a member and share reading activities.

In addition, the smart terminal 10 is a display capable of displaying an output such as an image or video, a speaker outputting audio, an input device such as a touch screen, a communication element, data, or a program that communicates through a network such as a mobile communication network/Internet. It consists of a memory that stores (applications, etc.), a central processing unit that can install and run applications, and the like.

Next, the reading support client 20 is a mobile application (or app, application) installed in the smart terminal 10 and provides a reading support service in conjunction with the reading support server 30 . The reading support service includes services such as post-reading activity support, challenge assignments, activity sharing support, reading habit confirmation, and point compensation and use.

Next, the reading support server 30 is a normal server and is connected to a network (not shown) to provide a reading support service. In particular, the reading support server 30 is a device having a computing processing function, such as a server device, and is connected to the smart terminal 10 through a wired or wireless network.

In particular, the reading support server 30 is built to serve as a normal app service server. The app page of the mobile application (mobile app or app, etc.) for reading support is provided to the student. That is, the reading support server 30 shows the processed result on the application or receives necessary input data through the application. The mobile page includes driving software for performing a specific task, such as an application, in addition to simple text, image, multimedia, and the like.

Meanwhile, the reading support client 20 and the reading support server 30 may be implemented according to a conventional client and server configuration method. That is, the functions of the entire system can be divided according to the performance of the client or the amount of communication with the server. For example, the reading support client 20 may perform only an interface role, and the server 30 may perform most of the tasks for reading support. Alternatively, the reading support client 20 may perform most of the reading support tasks and the server 30 may perform only data or backup functions. Hereinafter, it is described as a survey system, but it can be implemented in various sharing forms according to the server-client configuration method.

Next, the database 40 may be composed of a reading record DB 41 that records reading contents of the student and a challenge task DB 42 that stores challenges for post-reading activities. However, the configuration of the database 40 is only a preferred embodiment, and in developing a specific device, it may be configured in a different structure according to the database construction theory in consideration of the ease and efficiency of access and search.

Next, the configuration of the mobile application-based reading support system 300 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to FIG. 2 .

The reading support system 300 is a client-server system of the client 20 and server 30 described above. Depending on the specific implementation technology of the client-server, the functions of each component to be described below may be divided and configured by the client or the server.

As shown in FIG. 2, the mobile application-based reading support system 30 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a book management unit 31 that manages students' books and a reading information providing unit that provides information on books to be read. 32, a reading habit analysis unit 33 that analyzes reading habits, a challenge task progress unit 34 that proceeds with challenges, and a reading sharing activity unit 35 for sharing reading activities. Additionally, it may be configured to further include a point management unit 36 that manages compensation for reading activities.

First, the book management unit 31 manages books or books of a corresponding user, a student.

As shown in FIG. 3, the book management unit 31 classifies books into books owned by students, books owned by friends of students, and recommended books, and stores and displays book information of the corresponding classification.

Preferably, as shown in FIG. 3 , the book management unit 31 generates thumbnail images of corresponding books as book covers and the like, and lists and displays the thumbnail images of corresponding books.

Students, who are users, can easily identify books they need to read or books they are interested in, as books of themselves or their friends or recommended books are clearly displayed on the screen.

In addition, the book management unit 31 provides recommended book information related to the student's curriculum. Therefore, students or users can read necessary reference books along with books included in textbooks through online reading.

In addition, the book management unit 31 generates and provides recommended books by using recommended book information according to information on reading habits of students or users. In particular, reading habit information is generated by the reading habit analyzer 33 .

In addition, the book management unit 31 provides each book online so that the corresponding book can be read online. That is, the book management unit 31 provides a book reader function so that the content of the corresponding book can be read by the smart terminal 10 or the reading support client 20 .

Next, the reading information providing unit 32 provides reading information such as background knowledge and related vocabulary of the book to be read.

As shown in FIG. 4 , when a user or a student selects a specific book, the reading information providing unit 32 provides reading information such as background knowledge about the book or related vocabulary.

In particular, when the reading information providing unit 32 selects a specific word from the content of the book, it is converted to a screen that explains the vocabulary of the corresponding word. Meanwhile, background knowledge or vocabulary may be determined through a search.

As face-to-face classes become difficult due to the risk of infectious diseases such as corona, students often do not even open their textbooks properly. In other words, as students encounter fewer texts and become accustomed to only videos, they naturally lack not only the ability to understand and interpret long sentences, but also lack background knowledge. In particular, they cannot get help from teachers or friends to ask or explain this background knowledge.

In particular, as students enter the upper grades, vocabulary is the most important factor in reading comprehension, but it is difficult to learn in class. So, while a user or student is reading online, clicking on a word that appears in the book will switch to a screen that explains the meaning of the word. Through this method, students can acquire background knowledge and vocabulary necessary for the grade level, and can check the contents themselves through challenge quizzes. In addition, books that are helpful for deep learning and books that are necessary for me are recommended, which can naturally lead to in-depth reading.

Next, the reading habit analyzer 33 analyzes the contents of the books read by the student or user to generate reading habit information of the student or user.

In particular, the reading habit analysis unit 33 analyzes the books (or books) read by the user or student according to the book classification table. In general libraries, only popular books are worn out or difficult to borrow. This shows that most people prefer interesting and fun-oriented books rather than extensive reading. Therefore, through the reading habit information generated in this way, the user or student can check the strengths and weaknesses of his/her own reading habit, so that he/she can have a correct reading habit.

In addition, the reading habit analyzer 33 generates a book list of recommended books by using the user's or student's reading habit information. The recommended book list is presented to the user or student by the book management unit 31 as a list of recommended books.

Reading is not something you do with your mind set at a time and place, but you should do it whenever and wherever you have a chance. However, in an environment where access to the library is not easy, the reality is that books are limited and it is a burden to read and purchase every time. However, according to the reading support system according to the present invention, popular books and must-read books for each age are provided together, so that each user can read them immediately when he or she wants to read, and books that do not have to be purchased can be read through an app, which reduces the cost of purchasing books. can reduce

Next, the challenge progressing unit 34 provides a tool for creating a challenge task for the read book or book, and a function for performing the created challenge task.

As shown in FIG. 5 or 6 , the challenge progress unit 34 provides a tool for creating a challenge task, such as a reading quiz, a reading discussion, or a reading game, with respect to a specific book. After reading a specific book, a user or student may create a quiz or game by using a challenge creation tool of the challenge progress unit 34 . At this time, other users (students) or their friends can take on these challenges.

In addition, the challenge creation unit 34 presents the created challenge or its list, and provides an execution environment for the user or student to execute the challenge. That is, a user or student is presented with a challenge for a specific book and performs the challenge.

Through this, teachers and students can access at the same time during online classes to read books together and solve problems, and after class, they can review themselves through reading appreciation and challenge tasks. Teachers can check individual understanding of students and assign reading assignments. In addition, anyone can participate in real-time, such as the monthly 'Dokdo Quiz Festival' or 'debate contest', like events held in school libraries, and through these challenges, they provide an opportunity to remind themselves of the contents of the book and improve their confidence.

In addition, beyond reading activities in which only book reviews or impressions are submitted, problems or games created by each user or student, and characters drawn by students can be shared in the app. Through this, after reading a book, you can actively engage in post-reading activities to digest it as your own and enjoy it.

Next, the reading sharing activity unit 35 provides social networking means for sharing reading activities such as chatting or commenting. In addition, the book sharing activity unit 35 may provide social networking means with challenges.

As shown in FIG. 5 or 6, the reading sharing activity unit 35 provides reading sharing activities such as comments and reading discussions.

Through this, each user or student can recognize each other and share opinions through active communication with friends. These courses can increase your interest in reading. Friends who are not interested in reading can also provide an opportunity to participate.

Next, the point management unit 36 provides and manages rewards for reading activities as points.

As shown in FIG. 7 , the point management unit 36 accumulates points each time a reading activity or a reading sharing activity is participated.

In addition, real-time rankings are provided according to accumulated points. Through this, each user or student can check the ranking according to his or her reading activity, and can naturally have a sense of achievement and motivation.

In addition, the point management unit 36 provides the accumulated points to be used for character purchases, donations, and the like. That is, the point management unit 36 provides an online shopping mall that can be purchased with points.

That is, points are accumulated whenever each user or student reads and performs various post-reading activities. In addition, each user or student can use the accumulated points to purchase a character of a book he has read or to decorate his room. The record of each student's reading activity is not simply a book report written in a notebook, but a collection of characters and various items appearing in the book. Through this, students familiar with the online environment can be motivated to read as well as a sense of achievement.

In particular, each user can donate the accumulated points to a place he/she wants. While going through the recent corona situation, you can help the surrounding environment and society. In particular, by allowing donations to the vulnerable, environmental groups, and abandoned animal protection groups, reading activities can have a positive effect on society.

In the above, the invention made by the present inventors has been specifically described according to examples, but the present invention is not limited to the examples, and various changes are possible without departing from the gist of the invention.
