Generating activity status information based on the log information.

The work category may include at least one of a detailed project category, a bulletin board category, or a file registration category of the project.

The method for providing a team project service may further include receiving information on a user setting category from a team member terminal and registering the received user setting category as a work category of the project.

An activity of a team member related to the at least one task may include a registration, modification, or deletion activity of information related to the at least one task.

The log information may include at least one of information on a subject of an activity of a team member related to the at least one task, information on time, information on a number of times, or statistical information.

The activity status information may include information on activity status for each work category of each team member.

The activity status information may represent the activity status information of each team member in the form of a graphical user interface (GUI) including at least one of a table or a graph.

The activity status information may further include information on the number of times the team project service providing server of each team member.

The method of providing a team project service may include receiving information on an evaluation score of another team member from the team member terminal and generating information on a team member mutual evaluation score of each team member based on the received information on the evaluation score. It may further include. The team project service providing method may be stored in a computer readable recording medium recording a program.

The team project service providing system for solving the technical problem registers to receive information about a project DB (database), a project, and at least one task included in a work category of the project from a team member terminal and register the information in the project DB. A module, a log information collection module for storing log information corresponding to an activity of a team member related to the at least one task, and activity status information of each team member in response to an activity status report request received from at least one of the team member terminals. It includes a control module for generating based on the log information.

The registration module may receive information on a user setting category from a team member terminal, and register the received user setting category as a work category of the project.

The control module may receive information on an evaluation score of another team member from the team member terminal, and generate information on a team member mutual evaluation score of each team member based on the received information on the evaluation score.

Since the method and system for providing a team project service according to the present invention can provide an infrastructure for performing a team project online, it is convenient to perform activities (eg, meeting or information exchange, etc.) for performing a project offline. It can be effective.

In addition, the team project can objectively evaluate the contribution of each team member to the project, and since the evaluation is automatically performed in the system, the objective evaluation without the subjective measure of the team members can be made.

As this system is evaluated automatically, it is possible to systematically prevent people who want to free-riding a project by relying on human relationships among team members.

In addition, since team members can subordinate subjective evaluation to other team members, multi-faceted evaluation is possible by combining objective evaluation with subjective evaluation.

Can be collected. Since the collection of such log information can be easily inferred by the average expert in the art, a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

The log information may include at least one of information on a subject of an activity of a team member related to the at least one task, information on time, information on a number of times, or statistical information.

For example, the log information may include information on project activity of each team member related to the whole project. Or, it may include information about team member activities for each task. For example, if team member A has registered information related to task A, information about team member A, information about when team member A registered information, information about other activities of team member A, and / or said details of team member A Statistical information of activities on task A may be included in the log information. In addition to the above-mentioned information, the log information may indicate the degree to which the team members contributed to the project activity, and all the meaningful information that can be monitored by the server 100 (eg, the sum of the times of access to the server 100, etc.). Of course, it may further include).

In addition, the log information is objective statistical data that excludes subjective evaluation of at least team members. It can be assumed that the numerical value of the objective statistical data is at least proportional to the contribution of the project.

Then, the control module 110 may generate activity status information for each team member based on the log information. The generated activity status information may be a document having a predetermined format (ie, activity status report).

The activity status information may include the activity status of each team member of the entire project. In addition, according to the implementation example, it may include information on the activity status for each detailed work category of the project. If the weights of the contributions of the project for each work category (per task) are different, the information on the activity status for each detailed work category (or for each task depending on the implementation example) is generated to calculate the contribution to the entire project. It may be provided to the user or the team member.

On the other hand, the control module 110 may display the information on the activity status in the form of a graphical user interface (GUI) including at least one of a table or a graph in order to increase the readability of the information on the activity status for each team member. have. For example, as shown in FIG. 8, the control module 110 may display the information on the activity status of each work category as bar graphs 32, 33, and 34 based on the log information. Alternatively, it may be represented by a graph 35 of another form. The activity status information may further include information on the number of times the team project service providing server of each team member is connected. That is, the log information may simply include simple statistical information such as the number of times of accessing a web site / page provided by the server 100. The information on the number of times of access is also shown as the activity status information as shown in FIG. It may be provided in a predetermined GUI form (31). In addition to the tables or graphs, various GUI forms can be used to show information about each member's activity.

Meanwhile, the method for providing a team project service according to an embodiment of the present invention uses a subjective evaluation of team members as auxiliary data in addition to the objective activity status information as described above. Can present

That is, in the method of providing a team project service according to an embodiment of the present invention, the server 100 receives information on an evaluation score of another team member from at least one of the team member terminals 200-1 to 200 -N, and receives the information. The information on the team member mutual evaluation score of each of the team members may be generated based on the received information on the evaluation score. Such subjective team members can express numerically the factors that the above activity status information cannot express.

As described above, according to the technical idea of the present invention, the objective activity information and the mutual evaluation between team members can provide not only the evaluation of the project itself but also the indicator of the objective evaluation of the individual members who performed the project as objectively as possible. have.
