Description

Language Teaching Device and Method using User Interface of Conditioned Reflex

The present invention relates to a foreign language education apparatus, and more specifically, a combination (or word) of a voice expressing a foreign language or a character expressing a foreign language is imaged into a figure of a specific shape based on its usage, and the figure or the figure The present invention relates to a foreign language education apparatus for inducing movement of a body or body part depicting the figure as a body or body part by providing a user with a tactile sensation caused by vibrations of different frequencies, strengths, or sequences depicting figures.

An acquired reaction method that an animal acquires through learning. The unconscious response to a specific stimulus is called a conditioned reflex. In addition, the acquisition of conditioned reflexes to stimuli through learning is called conditioning. At this time, an animal's original response to salivation while eating is called an unconditioned response (UCR). And the stimulus that causes this unconditioned response to eat is called an unconditioned stimulus (UCS). In Pavlov's experiment, a stimulus to associate with an unconditioned stimulus, such as ringing a bell, is called a conditioned stimulus (CS). In the case of Pavlov's experiment, the case of feeding after ringing the bell is reinforcement. However, if only the conditioned stimulus is given and then the unconditioned stimulus is not given, the conditioned reflex gradually ceases to occur, which is called extinction. In the case of Pavlov's experiment, it is the case that no food is given after ringing the bell. Therefore, conditioned reflexes are not maintained just because they are learned once, and disappear if the stimulus is not continuously applied. This is the most basic form of learning because it is regulated by the coupling between nerve cells. (Source: [Naver Knowledge Encyclopedia] Conditioned reflex (Doosan Encyclopedia)

The hand refers to the tip of the forearm, the part that is attached to the wrist. The hand consists of a ‘palm’ and five ‘fingers’ extending from it. The front of the hand is called the palm, and the skin is thick (0.7 millimeters) and hairless, but has skin ridges (palmprints and fingerprints). The back of the hand, the back of the hand, has thin skin (0.4 millimeters) and has the same characteristics as the skin in other areas. The human hand is made up of twenty-seven small bones. There are four basic movements of the hand: 'bend' to clench a fist, 'extend' to open the hand, 'pull' to hold the fingers together, and 'open' to spread the fingers. In addition to the thumb's unique 'fighting' movement, the basic movements of the fingers are five types: bending, straightening, gathering, spreading, and confronting. The combination of these several movements creates a cartoonish activity for the human hand. In particular, the abductor and trapezius muscles of the thumb are particularly developed, so they can move with strong force. The hand is not only a motor organ that carries out commands from the brain, but also a sensory organ that provides the most information to the brain. The brain is activated when you move your hand or when you accept an external change with your hand. The hand is a tool that implements the commands created in the head, but on the contrary, new ideas are created by using the hand. This is because the frontal lobe is stimulated when the hand is used, and in the process, the frontal lobe, the center of the human brain, engages in creative activities that go beyond interpreting the stimulus. In other words, using your hands is the same thing as stimulating the highest level of mental function.

In order to activate the brain required for efficient memorization of the spelling of foreign words, it can be said that it is in the same context to move the hand and follow the spelling pattern.

The haptic interface [觸覺-] is a connection device that delivers tactile information to the user. As it is the largest organization among body organs in square meters (m2), it is considered as an essential communication channel for information recognition and expression when humans and computers become close environments such as wearable computers in the future.
