Description

How to provide knowledge content via a network {METHOD OF PROVIDING KNOWLEDGE CONTENTS OVER NETWORK}

The present invention relates to a method for distributing and providing learning content and knowledge content.

In general, knowledge is unidirectionally transferred from high to low.

So was web-based e-learning, and e-books.

The same was true of more classical books and online and offline lectures.

On the other hand, since the popularity of Web 2.0, the direct participation of users and the production of contents through them have become a hot topic in the Internet technology field.

As a result of the direct participation of the users, not only the high-quality contents are produced in large quantities, but also the positive results that the users become the subjects of the whole process have come as the users directly participate in the whole process of production and consumption.

From this point of view, it is necessary to prepare a channel for the production and distribution of learning contents by the participation of learners from the unilateral knowledge transfer as before.

This means that learners can actively participate in the process of producing and consuming learning contents.

[Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 10-2012-0011265 "Interactive teaching apparatus and method related to social network service" [Patent Literature 2] Patent Publication No. 10-2012-0010868 "Method and System for Providing Social Network Online Education Service Utilizing Location Information of Mobile Terminal"

The present invention has been made to solve the above problems of the prior art, it is intended to present a model in which learners directly participate in the production and consumption of knowledge content.

More specifically, a large number of knowledge contents are produced by the participation of learners, but the learners can check the produced multiple knowledge contents at a glance, but can identify at a glance what is knowledge about the representative conversation. The purpose of this is to provide a user interface.

In order to achieve the above object, a method of providing knowledge content via a network according to the present invention is that when a terminal user selects a knowledge content generation function while playing a learning resource, the server sends a message from the terminal. In response to the knowledge content generation request, a thumbnail of the learning resource is generated and stored at the time when the knowledge content generation function is selected, and the location information for accessing the playback position of the learning resource at the time when the knowledge content generation function is selected. Step 110 of generating knowledge content by further storing;

Step 120 of storing the received conversations when there is an input of a conversation about the generated knowledge content from a terminal;

Step 130, selecting a representative conversation from among pre-stored conversations using a representative conversation selection algorithm for each of the plurality of knowledge contents held by the server;

Step 140, a terminal displaying a thumbnail and a representative dialog of the knowledge contents as the terminal accesses through the network;

Step 150, as the terminal user scrolls the initial screen in a specific direction, the server further provides a thumbnail and representative dialog of the knowledge content to be displayed on the scrolled terminal screen;

Step 160, when the terminal user selects any one of the thumbnails displayed on the screen, the server retrieves and provides location information for accessing the playback location of the learning resource stored in the thumbnail to the terminal;

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments and accompanying drawings. In order to clarify the present invention, contents which are not related to the configuration of the present invention will be omitted, and the same reference numerals are used for the same components.

On the other hand, when an element is referred to as being "comprising" another element in the description of the invention or in the claims, it is not interpreted as being limited to only that element, Elements may be further included.

Also, in the description of the invention or the claims, the components named as "means", "parts", "modules", "blocks" refer to units that process at least one function or operation, Each of which may be implemented by software or hardware, or a combination thereof.

1 is a view for explaining a connection relationship between a plurality of terminals connected through a social network service and a server providing a learning resource and a social network service to the terminal.

The server 10 provides a social network service (SNS) to a plurality of terminals 20 connected through a network. That is, a plurality of terminals 20 can be connected to each other through a network, and users can communicate with each other by using a terminal 20 by exchanging messages.

Meanwhile, the server 10 provides the learning resource to the terminal 20 connected through the network.

At this time, the learning resource may be a content used for learning, a web document, a lecture video, a book, an image, and the like.

That is, the server 10 in this aspect corresponds to the LMS (Learning Management System) according to the prior art.

The user who accesses the terminal 20 through the authentication process through the terminal 20 provides the learning resource in real time by the streaming method in units of units according to the learning curriculum of the user and collects information such as the learning result, progress status, and achievement of the learner can do.

On the other hand, the terminal 20 is a means by which the server 10 can access the social network service. In addition, the terminal 20 is also a means for progressing the learning of the user by simultaneously receiving and reproducing learning resources.

Such a terminal 20 may be in the form of a smart phone or a tablet according to the related art.

The method of providing knowledge content via the network according to the present invention can be executed in the server 10 as described above.

2 is a conceptual diagram illustrating a structure of knowledge content provided by a method for providing knowledge content via a network according to the present invention.

Before describing a method of providing knowledge content via a network according to the present invention, the concept of knowledge content based on the present invention will be described.

2, the knowledge content includes a plurality of thumbnail images. Each thumbnail image is then associated with a number of conversations.

The server 10 generates a thumbnail image at the request of the user of the terminal 20 as described later, and stores the metadata of the position information or the like related to the generated thumbnail image. Then, the conversations of the users of the terminal 20 are separately stored, and the stored conversations are connected to the respective thumbnail images.

Thus, knowledge content has a structure that is differentiated over layers of thumbnails and metadata and layers of conversations below. Thumbnails are created and fixed by being added to knowledge content, but conversations are expanded or changed independently. However, only citations and connections to thumbnails of conversations are maintained.

According to the knowledge content providing method via the network according to the present invention, the knowledge content having the above structure is provided to the plurality of terminals 20 connected through the network.

5 is a flowchart illustrating a method of providing knowledge content via a network according to the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 5, the server 10 generates and stores a thumbnail of a learning resource according to a request from the terminal 20 (S110), and generates a knowledge content by storing a conversation connected to the thumbnail. And expand (S120).

Looking at the process in detail, first, the user of the terminal 20 learns by receiving and playing the learning resource, and if the user wants to exchange opinions with other terminal 20 users, the user generates the knowledge content by operating the terminal 20. The function can be selected.

At this time, the user of the terminal 20 can input his conversation to be connected to the generated knowledge content.

As described above, "conversation" corresponds to contents of communication between users of the terminal 20 connected to thumbnails of respective knowledge contents.

The first dialogue that is created when creating knowledge content is important because it decides what content to exchange.

On the other hand, the terminal 20 requests the server 10 to generate the knowledge content via the network. At this time, the content of the conversation input by the user of the terminal 20 is further transferred to the server 10.

When the server 10 requests a generation of knowledge content from the terminal 20, the server 10 generates a thumbnail image from a learning resource that is being played by the terminal 20 when the knowledge content generation function is selected, and generates and stores various metadata. By adding it to existing knowledge content.

That is, a thumbnail is newly added on the thumbnail image layer as shown in FIG.

At this time, the server 10 may store location information for accessing the reproduction position of the learning resource at the time when the generation function of the knowledge content is selected, together with the thumbnail.

Location information has two meanings.

The first means the network address of the learning resource. That is, if the type of the learning resource is a video, a web document, an image, or a separate file stored in the server 10, regardless of the form of the learning resource, Address.

For example, it may be expressed in the form of url.

The second refers to a position displayed on the screen of the terminal 20 at a time when the knowledge content generation function among the entire learning resources is selected when the learning resource has a rather long amount rather than an amount that can be confirmed at a glance.

For example, when the learning resource is a moving image, a few minutes and a few seconds of the runtime of the entire moving image, a few pages when the learning resource corresponds to the north, and a position of the entire web document when the web document is the web.

That is, the server 10 extracts position information for approaching the reproduction position of the learning resource according to the type of the learning resource, and stores it when the thumbnail of the learning resource is generated.

That is, when the learning resource is a moving image, the server 10 stores a screen shot of the corresponding moving image at the time of requesting the knowledge content creation as a thumbnail image, and stores the URL and playback time of the moving image as position information.

When the learning resource is the north, the server 10 stores the book cover image as a thumbnail image, and stores the page of the north book displayed in the terminal at the point of time of requesting the knowledge content creation, do.

Though the screen shot of this page can be used as a thumbnail image, it is also possible to use a representative cover such as a thumbnail image at a glance.

If the learning resource is a web document, the server 10 generates a thumbnail image by converting the screen of the web document into an image, and displays the URL of the web document and the corresponding web Store the location in the document as location information.

On the other hand, when the learning resource is an image, the server 10 stores the image itself as a thumbnail image and stores the url of the image as location information.

In addition, the user of the terminal 20 can modify the thumbnail by, for example, making a note on the thumbnail generated in association with the learning resource. When the server 10 receives the data of the thumbnail changed from the terminal 20 .

For example, a user of the terminal 20 may directly write a note on the thumbnail displayed on the touch screen screen of the terminal 20 with a stylus pen or a finger, and the server 10 receives and stores the memo.

On the other hand, the location information of the learning resource stored together with the thumbnail may be stored in the form of metadata such as a tag.

At this time, in addition to the above-described location information of the learning resource, the server fetches one or more pieces of information among the subject, subject, difficulty, and progress of the learning resource previously held in association with the learning resource and stores it together with the metadata of the thumbnail It is possible.

The metadata thus stored can be utilized in the recommendation or retrieval of knowledge contents.

Meanwhile, when generation and storage of the thumbnails are performed as described above, the server 10 separately stores the contents of the conversation input by the user of the terminal 20 and connects them to the thumbnails. That is, the conversation has a kind of pointer to the thumbnail to which it is connected.

Thus, even if the conversation expands or changes, the thumbnails will be irrelevant.

As described above, thumbnails related to a specific location and content of the learning resource are generated to generate knowledge content, and the conversation contents of the user of the terminal 20 are connected to form a layer as shown in FIG. 2.

Thereafter, the server 10 selects a representative conversation for each of the plurality of accumulated knowledge contents by repeating steps S110 to S120 (S130).

For example, the conversation that has received the most citation among a plurality of conversations connected to a thumbnail of one learning resource is represented, or the keyword that matches the metadata of the learning resource most frequently among the conversations most frequently represents a conversation. Representative conversations can be selected from pre-stored conversations using various representative conversation selection algorithms.

After the representative dialog is selected for each thumbnail of the knowledge content as described above, the server 10 displays an initial screen of the thumbnail and the representative dialog of the knowledge content as the terminal 20 is connected through the network. Provides (S140).

The present invention is characterized by providing a user interface for selecting knowledge contents at a glance while viewing a plurality of thumbnails and representative dialogs for each thumbnail, and FIGS. 3 and 4 conceptually illustrate such a user interface.

3 is an exemplary screen diagram illustrating how a list of a plurality of knowledge contents is shown on a terminal screen.

As illustrated in FIG. 3, the server 10 displays a thumbnail and a representative conversation of each knowledge content in a space divided into a plurality of sections, and provides the same to the terminal 20.

Looking at the process in more detail with reference to Figure 6 as follows.

FIG. 6 is a flowchart illustrating a process of dividing a plurality of pieces of knowledge content on a screen according to the present invention shown in FIG. 5.

First, the server 10 selects a plurality of knowledge contents to be displayed on the screen (S141).

Then, the space in which thumbnails and representative dialogs of the selected knowledge contents are displayed is partitioned (S142).

When the space is partitioned in this manner, the server 10 displays thumbnails and representative dialogs of the knowledge contents in the partitioned space, respectively (S143).

In the example of FIG. 3, the thumbnails of all the knowledge contents are displayed in the divided areas with the same size. However, in view of the importance of the knowledge contents and the association with the user of the terminal 20, the size of the region where the thumbnails and the representative dialog are displayed and The location can be different.

That is, when the terminal 20 accesses, the user information is obtained by retrieving the information of the terminal 20 account, and compared with the metadata of each knowledge content, the central or size of the knowledge content that is highly related to the user is prominent. Can be reconfigured in real time to be placed in a large area.

Alternatively, the importance of the knowledge content is calculated using the degree of participation (number of conversations, access frequency, etc.) of the users of the terminal 20 with respect to each knowledge content, and the area or size where knowledge content with high importance is prominent is large. It can be displayed in the area.

By this process, the screen of the terminal 20 is displayed on the initial screen as illustrated in FIG. 3.

That is, the user of the terminal 20 can check thumbnails and representative conversations of the plurality of knowledge contents at a glance.

On the other hand, if the amount of knowledge content is so large that it is difficult for all knowledge content to be displayed on one page of the screen of the terminal 20, the server 10 may slide or scroll the screen of the terminal 20 in a predetermined direction to view it. At the request of the terminal 20, thumbnails and representative dialogs of a plurality of knowledge contents are provided in real time.

In this case, similarly, the knowledge contents to be displayed on the screen after the slide or scroll is selected, and the space in which the thumbnails are displayed are arranged in advance, and the position to be displayed according to the importance or the association with the user of the terminal 20 is displayed in real time. By selecting it to provide it to the terminal 20.

On the other hand, the user of the terminal 20 may look at a plurality of thumbnails and representative conversations displayed on the screen in this way, and may want to see in more detail about any one.

In this case, when the user of the terminal 20 makes a predetermined input (eg, a touch screen gesture input), the terminal 20 may zoom in and display the selected thumbnail on the screen. In the screen as illustrated in FIG. 3, even if the entire contents of the representative conversation are difficult to be displayed, the entire contents of the representative conversation may be displayed as the zoom-in process is performed.

On the other hand, the user of the terminal 20 may further select one of the thumbnails, and may want to access the contents of the knowledge content (location information for accessing the learning resources and the entire conversation).

In this case, the terminal 20 requests the server 10 for the details of the corresponding knowledge content, and the server 10 transmits the position information for accessing the playback position of the learning resource stored in the thumbnail to the terminal 20 or The terminal provides the entire conversations stored in the knowledge content (S160).

FIG. 4 is an exemplary screen diagram illustrating how the details of the selected knowledge content are displayed on the terminal screen as one of the knowledge content list shown in FIG. 3 is selected.

That is, as the user of the terminal 20 selects one of the thumbnails, the terminal 20 receives the details of the corresponding knowledge content from the server 10 and displays the same as illustrated in FIG. 4.

In this case, the location information of the learning resource provided by the server 10 may be a url of a learning resource directly hosted by the server 10, or may include a url of a learning resource existing outside the server 10. In accordance with this, the following items are additionally included.

That is, when the learning resource is a video, the location information may further include a playback time point of the video.

Alternatively, when the learning resource is e-book, the location information further includes page information of the e-book displayed at the terminal at the time of the request for knowledge content generation, and when the learning resource is a web document, the location information is a knowledge content generation request. The location may further include a location in the web document that was displayed on the terminal at the time point.

As the location information of the learning resource is provided in this way, the user of the terminal 20 selects the location information, thereby directly accessing the learning resource corresponding to the original of the thumbnail, and also the part corresponding to the point where the thumbnail is generated among all the learning resources. You can do it.

Meanwhile, as illustrated in FIG. 4, while viewing the entire conversation of knowledge contents, the user of the terminal 20 may participate in the conversation for expansion of knowledge.

To this end, when the user of the terminal 20 inputs a new conversation in addition to the existing conversation, the server 10 stores the existing conversation and the received conversation together (S170).

On the other hand, when a new conversation is input and the knowledge content is updated, the server 10 updates the representative conversation of the corresponding knowledge content by reselecting the representative conversation by the same representative conversation selection algorithm as described above (S180).

Meanwhile, the method for providing knowledge content via a network according to the present invention may be implemented as computer readable code and stored in a computer readable recording medium.

The computer-readable recording medium may include any type of medium in which data readable by a computer system is stored. Examples of the medium include a DVD-ROM, a CD-ROM, a hard disk, a USB memory, a flash memory And the like.

On the other hand, the expression to be recorded on the recording medium encompasses not only a case where a large amount is recorded on a recording medium, a case where it is distributed in the form of a package, a case where it is provided on a recording medium through a network in the form of a data packet.

In the above description, the expression "server" is used. However, in a distributed computing environment, it is common to divide a function or a load into a plurality of servers for processing. Therefore, a "server" does not necessarily refer to a single hardware component, And < / RTI >

In the above description, the network is referred to as a local area network (WAN), a wide area network (WAN), or an intranet, a virtual private network (VPN) Therefore, it should be construed as a broad concept covering wired and wireless communication methods known as WiBro, WiFi, and the like.
