Description

A Method and An Apparatus for Remote Education Using Internet Auction}

The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for providing a distance education service using an internet auction.

The distance education service using the Internet has the advantage of increasing the educational effect by applying video conferencing system to the distance education service to simultaneously provide video, voice and text information to the existing education service.

However, most of the distance education services using the Internet are merely moving existing education services onto the Internet. In other words, the existing market practice of unilaterally determining education contents, class hours, tuition fees, etc., and consumers using education services accordingly is reproduced on the Internet. This problem can be divided into the demand side and the supplier side using the education service. The consumer should select the instructor from the list of instructors provided by the supplier, and even if they are not satisfied with the contents of the education service, they cannot change the instructor for a predetermined period of time, and there are problems such as a fixed class time and a limited choice of lecture topics. . Providers cannot expect income from their ability due to fixed tuition fees, and they have problems such as fixed lecture time and restriction on free choice of lecture topics.

In order to solve the above problems, service auctions have recently emerged that have introduced auction methods into service products such as education services. The auction is a method in which the owner of the product sets the lowest bid price and then sells the product to the buyer who has the highest price. Recently, low-priced products are also sold through auctions using the Internet, and the auction method has appeared in reverse auction method in which the seller sets the successful bid price unlike the existing method in which the owner of the product predetermines the successful bid price. However, the existing auction method and the new reverse auction method still suffer from the problem that the agreement between the seller and the buyer on the sale of the product depends on one's choice.

An object of the present invention is to introduce the auction method to the distance education service to improve the problems of the distance education service using the Internet, and to mediate students and instructors to participate in distance education commerce activities while optimizing their economic benefits. . To this end, it is an object of the present invention to provide a distance education method and apparatus using an internet auction having a distance education search engine capable of realizing the above object by finding the best condition desired by the student and the instructor.

The categorized categories are represented by the type of educational service, that is, language / artistic / technology, etc., and then divided into subcategories, and include language-English, Japanese, Chinese, French, German / art-western, writing, music / technical-computer Subdivided into maintenance and maintenance. A user who accesses as a student can search for a desired instructor using a category already classified. In addition, the desired instructor can be searched using the distance education search engine provided by the present invention. The search using the distance education search engine may perform a more accurate search than the category search described above. When a user connected to a student selects a lecturer's lecture level, evaluation level, types of services provided, difficulty of lectures, tuition fees, and the like, the distance learning search engine provides a list of lecturers that optimally match the selected conditions. An example of the search screen is shown in FIG.

Displaying a list of subjects available for trading 104 provides a list of subjects available for trading according to the degree of correspondence of the desired distance education target list by the searchable subject list by the category search or the distance learning search engine, If there is no match, the entire auction progress board is provided. When performing a search using a category or the distance learning search engine in step 103, a list of tradeable subjects is provided in an order of optimally matching a distance learning desired condition among currently connected instructors or instructors stored in a distance education database.
