Description

Terminal device running word learning program

The present invention relates to a terminal device that executes a word learning program that provides an interface corresponding to various gestures of a learner through a mobile terminal.

Recently, in accordance with the trend of internationalization, various types of e-learning devices have been developed that help to efficiently learn language or memorize long-form learning contents such as Korean and Korean history.

In general, in the case of English learning, a method of naturally memorizing learning by allowing learners to repeatedly play and watch words to be memorized through a cassette player or a portable word learning device has become mainstream.

However, such a conventional language learning method not only allows the learner to feel proof of learning as the same learning content is output every time during repetitive learning, but also displays the words to be memorized unilaterally. As a result of memorizing the order in which the words appear rather than memorizing the word itself, there is a limit that the memorized content is easily forgotten when remembered.

Registered Patent No. 10-1853892

An object of the present invention is to provide a terminal device that executes a word learning program capable of solving the conventional problem.

The learning progress unit 152 blinds one of the words and meanings displayed on the display unit 130 to perform word learning in a preset pattern.

The mixing and screen switching unit 153 randomly arranges a sequence of a plurality of words displayed on the display unit 130 based on a motion signal generated according to the movement of the terminal device (see FIG. 9).

In addition, the mixing and screen switching unit 153 includes an interface unit 153-1, and after activating the auxiliary screen by swiping or selecting a button to select a learner among a plurality of words displayed on the display unit 130, It provides a plurality of interfaces for moving the position of a word selected with a swipe or button to a sub screen.

2 to 3, in any one of the plurality of interfaces provided by the interface unit 153-1, any one word of the learner's learning degree is selected by the learner's touch or a button, and in one direction, preferably When the selected word is swiped from left to right on the screen or a button is selected, an additional sheet is created in the right direction, and by moving and placing the selected word on the additional sheet, the word is moved from start to end. After reporting, it is an interface for faster vocabulary learning so that you can move on to additional sheets.

In addition, referring to FIG. 4, the interface unit 153-1 creates an additional sheet in the right direction when selecting the word output as a voice through an external device (a button on the earphone or headphone), and the external device in the additional sheet You can move and place the selected word through (button on earphone or headphone).

On the other hand, each cell of each word disclosed herein may include an input function and a storage function, and in each cell of each word, a learner directly touches the screen to input characters or an image drawn through an electronic pen and Recorded files can be inserted, and the inserted images and recorded files are moved to the storage location of the storage unit set in the cell.

On the other hand, any one of the plurality of interfaces can additionally provide functions of hiding all words and meanings and showing all of the words displayed on the screen. When the word is hidden, the screen is displayed for 2-3 seconds based on the learner's touch. After making it visible, it may be an interface that switches to a hidden state.

In addition, the interface may provide the voice information on the word selected by the learner by a touch or a button to the voice output unit 140, and designate the number of times the voice information of the corresponding word output from the voice output unit 140 is output, and Can be set repeatedly.

The interface may include ① a folder selection function in which words are stored, ② an open folder function, ③ a word shuffle function (see Fig. 11), and ④ a word and return function.

Hereinafter, a function of generating a word learning folder and file will be described in more detail with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6.

For example, assuming that a plurality of word files are stored in the first folder, a subfolder for the first folder is created when the learner selects the first folder and then slides it in one direction.

In addition, after the learner selects a sub-folder, when pushing downward, a folder of the same hierarchy as the sub-folder is created.

Accordingly, the user does not need to select and execute a separate folder creation menu to create or add a folder, so that a task related to folder creation can be intuitively performed.

Meanwhile, the interface provides a function of automatically executing a designated word file according to the number of button clicks and a button press operation, in addition to a method of finding, selecting and executing a vocabulary file that the learner wants to learn.

As an example, when clicking once on a folder in which vocabulary files in various fields of study, such as English, Korean, and math, are stored, 1 English vocabulary can be executed, and when clicked twice, 3 Korean vocabulary can be executed, and click 3 times. In poetry, a mathematical formula vocabulary book may be set to be executed. Here, if the button is kept pressed, a shortcut wordbook or folder menu appears, and at this time, the user can select a desired wordbook or folder (see FIG. 10).

In addition, the ② open folder opening function of the interface may be a function of saving a screen while the folder is open.

Referring to FIG. 7, when a learner selects a screen through a swipe or a button, a new file explorer is created, and the folder open state can be saved while the folder is open. This saves the open state of the explorer so that you can search for documents or words faster.

Therefore, the screen can be saved while the folder is open, and a new explorer can be created through a swipe or button and the folder open state can be saved.

In addition, the ④ return function of the interface can return to the previous folder open state through a swipe or button from the folder open state.

In addition, the ④ return function of the interface can return to the initial folder after deleting folders created up to the last created folder through the return button, referring to FIG. 8.

In addition, additionally, the interface may include a word learning game function, see FIG. 9, and the word learning function deletes the touched word from the screen when a user touches a word whose word falls from top to bottom. When the untouched word reaches the bottom of the screen, the word is automatically transferred to the additional sheet.

In this case, the user may set the falling speed of the words and the words stored in different word folders to be mixed and displayed on one screen.

Therefore, there is an advantage that the user can sequentially review unknown words that are automatically moved to the additional sheet.
