  FIG. 11 is a diagram illustrating an example of the initial setting process before distribution.

  Each learner's terminal 10 performs necessary settings at the initiative of or in cooperation with the school server 23 before being distributed to the learner.

  First, when the learner's terminal 10 is turned on (S001), the driver is read and the OS is activated (S002). As shown in FIG. 1, the school server 23 and the learner's terminal 10 are connected to the in-school network 22 by wire or wirelessly. As a result, the learner's terminal 10 is connected to the in-school network 22 as a pre-initialization terminal. It is registered and only necessary communication is possible.

  Next, the school server 23 transmits an initialization request to the pre-initialization terminal (S003). When the learner's terminal 10 receives the initialization request, the learner's terminal 10 shifts to an initialization mode in which basic setting, administrator registration, and basic software setting of the learner's terminal 10 are possible.

  Next, administrator registration is performed so that the administrator of the in-school network 22 can remotely change the setting of the learner's terminal 10 (S004).

  Next, basic settings are made (S005). Here, in order to set the terminal-specific information of the learner's terminal 10 shown in FIG. 16, among the communication unit settings and control unit settings shown in FIG. Terminal specific information is set.

  Next, the basic software is transmitted and set (S006).

  Specific examples of the basic software are security software that can detect viruses, filtering software that restricts inappropriate speech and display, and management software that communicates with the school server 23 to manage information necessary for learning. With respect to the security software, the security software is transmitted from the school server 23 to the learner's terminal 10, and the learner's terminal 10 executes the installation. After the installation, the learner's terminal 10 performs initial settings necessary for the security software. For example, the reception setting of the definition information for virus detection, the setting of the search date and time, the setting of the reporting method when the virus is detected, and the like are performed.

  Regarding the filtering software, the school server 23 transmits the filtering software to the learner's terminal 10, and the learner's terminal 10 executes the installation. After the installation, the learner's terminal 10 performs initial settings necessary for the filtering software. For example, settings such as restricted words, documents, and Internet sites are set.

  Regarding the management software, the school server 23 transmits the management software to the learner's terminal 10, and the learner's terminal 10 executes the installation. After the installation, the learner's terminal 10 performs initial settings necessary for the management software. For example, school-specific information, class-specific information, and learner-specific information are set as information necessary to implement a service necessary for learning.

  The setting is such that the school specific information, the grade specific information, the class specific information, the learner basic information, and the learner specific information stored in advance by the storage unit 2304 of the school server 23 are the learner's terminal 10. Sent to and done.

  The learner's terminal 10 stores the transmitted information in the storage unit 1004.

  A specific example of each piece of information stored in the storage unit 1004 of the learner's terminal 10 is shown in FIG. For example, when the learner's terminal 10 which is a pre-initialization terminal is used by a group of learners per year, the contents of the class specific information corresponding to the group per year in FIG. 13 are stored in the storage unit 1004. .

  For example, if the user of the learner's terminal 10 which is the pre-initialization terminal is “Jiro Yokohama”, the learner ID is id01, so the content of the learner specific information corresponding to id01 is stored in the storage unit 1004. . If stored normally, the learner basic information id01 stored by the storage unit 2304 shown in FIG. 13 and the learner basic information id01 in the terminal stored by the storage unit 1004 shown in FIG. . That is, the learner basic information corresponding to “Yokohama Jiro” indicating the data of the learner name in the learner basic information corresponding to id01 stored by the storage unit 2304 and the learner basic information stored by the storage unit 1004 The basic learner information corresponding to "Jiro Yokohama" indicating the data of the learner's name is the same.

  Similarly, the storage unit 1004 stores a learner ID, a learner ID password, results information, attendance information, health status, learning history, and reading history. The grade information and health status do not need to be exactly the same between the school server 23 and the learner's terminal 10. For example, if the grade information stored by the school server 23 is managed by the school (ie, the instructor) such as the internal application form or the guidance record, and contains information that is inappropriate to be disclosed to the learner, The school server 23 may transmit the grade information excluding these pieces of information to the learner's terminal 10, and the storage unit 1004 may store this.

  Next, learning material transmission and setting for learning are performed (S007). Specifically, based on the class-specific information, the school server 23 transmits data related to teaching materials such as textbook data, notebook data, and reference book data to the learner's terminal 10, and the learner's terminal 10 Implement the settings to make it available.

  Next, various precautions are set (S008). Specifically, the learning server 23 sends various precautions to the learner by the instructor to the learner's terminal 10, and the learner's terminal 10 stores this. The various precautions mean items that the user should be aware of, such as tutorials on how to use and store the learner's terminal 10, precautions at the time of enrollment and attendance, and permission to use each software. Note that only items that the instructor wants to pay attention to the learner do not need to be transmitted to the learner's terminal 10, and guidance or the like for the guardian may be included.

  Next, a setting check test is performed to check whether the settings so far are correctly performed (S009). Specifically, the school server 23 requests the learner's terminal 10 to transmit various setting contents, and in response to this, the learner's terminal 10 transmits the stored setting contents to the school server 23. And the setting content transmitted from the terminal 10 for learners and received by the school server 23 is collated with the content set by the school server 23. As a result of this collation, if both match, it is assumed that initialization has been completed, and the power to the learner's terminal 10 is turned off manually or automatically (S010). As a result of the collation, when the setting content stored by the school server 23 does not match the setting content stored by the learner's terminal 10, the school server 23 notifies the administrator or the like to that effect. Then, the learner's terminal 10 having a setting problem is processed as an initial defective product. Specifically, without distributing the corresponding learner's terminal 10 to the learner, the hardware is checked for defects, and if it can be repaired, it is repaired and reinitialized.

  FIG. 12 is a diagram illustrating an example of post-distribution initial setting processing.

  When the learner's terminal 10 is turned on (S021), the precautions are displayed (S022).

  Next, the learner's terminal 10 displays school-specific information, class-specific information, learner basic information, and learner-specific information, confirms that the learner has no mistakes, and changes as necessary (S023). ). Here, a process of changing the password may be performed. The learner's terminal 10 transmits the changed content to the school server 23.

  Next, the home network 62 is set (S024). Specifically, the communication unit setting necessary for communication in the home network 62 is performed for the communication unit setting of the terminal specific information. Settings necessary for connection to the network 2 are also made as necessary.

  The post-distribution initial setting process is thus completed, and the learner's terminal 10 is in a state of being normally usable. The normal usable state means that, for example, all functions of the learner's terminal 10 can be used, such as a learner participating in a class via the school network 22 and browsing the textbook data and the note data. Say state.

  As described above, since the optimum setting to be used in the school network 22 can be surely performed before the learner's terminal 10 is distributed to the learner, an initial failure can be prevented in advance. Moreover, since the learning material suitable for the learner is transmitted to the learner's terminal 10, it is possible to smoothly introduce electronic textbooks and reference books.

  Next, a second embodiment according to the present invention will be described. In addition, this embodiment has the same configuration, functions, elements, and the like as the above-described embodiments within a necessary range.

If the received signal is encrypted, the decryption process is also performed.

  The bus 2114 is a transmission path through which signals are transmitted between the units.

  17 to 20 are diagrams illustrating an example of the normal learning process.

  First, when the learner performs an operation of turning on the power of the learner's terminal 10 in his / her classroom after going to school (S200), the learner's terminal 10 is connected to the in-school network 22, and the school A timetable information request is transmitted to the server 23 (S201). The time schedule information request is a request for time schedule information (described later) to the school server 23. The timetable information request includes a learner ID, but instead of the learner ID, a learner's name or class name that can specify the learner's timetable information may be used.

  The school server 23 that has received the timetable information request reads the timetable information corresponding to the received learner ID from the storage unit 2304 and transmits it to the learner's terminal 10 (S202). An example of the timetable information for learners is shown in FIG. The timetable information for learners is information relating to the timetable of lessons that the learner using the learner's terminal 10 should receive. The timetable information in this embodiment is the start time, end time, subject name, name of the instructor in charge, ID for identifying the textbook used in the class, and information indicating the page number of the textbook. , An ID for identifying a reference book used in the class, and server address information (URL, folder name, etc.) used in the class. In addition, textbooks, reference books, IDs indicating other teaching materials, etc. that should not be used during the class may be included. The timetable information basically includes the timetable for one day of the class to which the learner belongs (schedule information for school activities), but includes information for one week or other classes. You can do it.

  It is also conceivable that the learner's terminal 10 is not performed after the learner's attendance at school, but the learner attends school with the learner's terminal 10 in a state in which the power is turned on. In this case, the learner may manually perform an operation necessary for acquiring the time schedule information, and the learner terminal 10 may transmit a time schedule information request to the school server 23 in response to this operation. Alternatively, the learner's terminal 10 may automatically transmit a timetable information request to the school server 23 only when the learner's terminal 10 detects that it has connected to the school network 22. good. Thereby, the user's usability improves. In order to detect that the learner's terminal 10 is connected to the school network 22, for example, when connecting by wireless communication such as a wireless LAN, the beacon information transmitted by the access point (base station) is read and included therein. A method may be considered in which it is recognized that the connected information is a predetermined value, authentication processing or the like is performed on the access point, and the connection to the in-school network 22 is considered when the access point is correctly set in the standby state or the belonging state.

  The same applies to the instructor terminal 20, and when the instructor performs a power-on operation of the instructor terminal 20 in the staff room, for example, in the staff room (S210), the instructor terminal 20 The timetable information request is transmitted to the school server 23 by connecting to the network 22 (S211). The timetable information request includes the leader ID, but may include the name of the leader who can specify the timetable information of the leader or the class name in charge, instead of the leader ID.

  The school server 23 that has received the timetable information request reads the timetable information corresponding to the received leader ID from the storage unit 2304, and transmits it to the leader terminal 20 (S212). An example of the timetable information for the instructor is shown in FIG. The timetable information for the instructor is the class start time, end time, subject name, class name in charge, ID for identifying the textbook used in the class, which the instructor using the instructor terminal 20 should carry out, It includes information indicating the page number of the textbook starting from the textbook, an ID for identifying a reference book used in the class, and server address information (URL, folder name, etc.) used in the class. In addition, textbooks, reference books, IDs indicating other teaching materials, etc. that should not be used during the class may be included. The timetable information basically includes a list of classes, subjects, and times that the instructor is in charge of the day, but it includes information for one week, information for each class, and other instructors. May be included. The method for acquiring timetable information when attending school with the power on is the same as that in the learner's terminal 10.

  Note that the timetable information transmitted by the school server 23 is stored so that it can be updated by the storage unit 1004 of the learner's terminal 10 or the storage unit 2004 of the instructor's terminal 20.

  Based on the timetable information received in S202, the learner's terminal 10 automatically enters the lesson mode for a predetermined subject when the lesson start time is reached or when a predetermined time has passed before the lesson start time. The process proceeds (S203). The lesson mode of the learner's terminal 10 means a state in which the learner can execute a process necessary for taking a lesson using this, for example, textbook data, notebook data, reference book data of the lesson. Etc. (that is, the control unit 1005 reads from the storage unit 1004 and the display unit 1001 displays it), prevents data not related to the lesson from being opened, checks the remaining battery capacity, and the learner's terminal A state in which it is possible to perform processing such as checking whether the state 10 is normal. Since the learner's terminal 10 automatically prepares for the next class in conjunction with the previously acquired timetable information, it is convenient for the user.

  Note that the transition to the lesson mode of the learner's terminal 10 may be performed based on an operation by the learner. In this case, for example, it is possible to respond to a request from a learner who is willing to start preparation from a time earlier than a predetermined time before the class start time.

  Thereafter, the learner's terminal 10 prompts the learner to perform a login operation, and when the learner performs the login operation (S204), the learner's terminal 10 sends authentication information to the school server 23. Is transmitted (S205). The authentication information here means information input to confirm the identity, and is a learner ID and a password for the learner ID, or biometric information for authentication of the learner (fingerprint, finger vein, or voiceprint). Etc.). The school server 23 compares the received authentication information with the learner-specific information, and if the identity is confirmed, the school server 23 notifies the learner's terminal 10 of the login permission (S206), and the school of the learner's terminal 10 Login to the server 23 is completed. And the attendance information which shows that the said learner attends the said class is recorded by the memory | storage part 2004 of the school server 23 (S207).

  An example of attendance information is shown in FIG. The attendance information of the present embodiment includes an ID for identifying a learner, a learner name, and attendance status for each class (information indicating whether attended, absent, or before class starts). When the school server 23 recognizes that the learner has successfully logged in, the school server 23 updates the information indicating the attendance status of the class from “before class start” to “attendance”. When the school server 23 cannot recognize the end of the identity verification of the learner even after the class start time has passed, or the learner's terminal 10 has notified the fact that no login operation has been performed by the learner, The learning server 23 updates the attendance information from “before class start” to “absence”.

  If the learner's terminal 10 fails to log in to the school server 23 even though the learner has tried, the learner is prompted to start the login process again, or a display indicating that the login has failed is displayed. To do. Note that the information recorded in S207 may include the homework submission status and the state of the learner's terminal 10 (remaining battery capacity, virus check results, etc.). In this case, in S205, these pieces of information may be transmitted together with the authentication information.

  Upon receiving the login permission notification, the learner's terminal 10 issues a data download request for the class to the school server 23 (S208). The data necessary for the lesson is a memo prepared by the instructor for the lesson, or notebook data stored by the learner in the school server 23. Receiving the download request, the school server 23 transmits the requested data to the learner's terminal 10 (S209).

  On the other hand, the instructor's terminal 20 also automatically performs a lesson of a predetermined subject when the class start time is reached or a predetermined time before the class start time based on the timetable information received in S212. The mode is shifted (S213). The lesson mode of the instructor's terminal 20 means a state in which the instructor can perform a process necessary for conducting a lesson using this, for example, a list of learners of the class in charge at that time. It means a state where it is possible to perform processing such as downloading setting information related to the class equipment (wireless communication access point, electronic blackboard, etc.) that is downloaded from the school server 23 at that time. Since the instructor terminal 20 automatically prepares for the next class in conjunction with the previously acquired timetable information, it is convenient for the user.

  The transition to the lesson mode in the instructor terminal 20 may be performed manually, that is, based on an operation by the instructor, similarly to the transition to the lesson mode in the learner terminal 10.

  If the instructor goes to the classroom and the electronic blackboard 21 in the classroom is turned on (S216), the instructor's terminal 20 and the electronic blackboard 21 perform pairing processing (S217). Here, the pairing processing is to set the electronic blackboard 21 so that the screen of the instructor terminal 20 can be output. For example, when the leader terminal 20 and the electronic blackboard 21 are wirelessly connected, the leader terminal 20 broadcasts peripheral device search data (including address information of the leader terminal 20) and receives it. A method may be considered in which the electronic blackboard 21 transmits response data (including address information of the electronic blackboard 21), and the instructor terminal 20 receives the data to perform pairing. For example, when the instructor terminal 20 and the electronic blackboard 21 are connected by wire, a method of pairing by physically connecting them with a display cable is conceivable.

  Thereafter, when the instructor terminal 20 transmits an attendance information confirmation request to the school server 23 (S214), the school server 23 transmits attendance information to the instructor terminal 20 (S215). . The attendance information confirmation request includes information indicating a class or lesson or information indicating a learner so that the school server 23 can determine which learner's attendance information of which lesson should be transmitted. In addition, the information that the school server 23 transmits to the instructor terminal 20 in S215 may include the homework submission status and the state of the learner terminal 10 (remaining battery capacity, virus check results, etc.). good.

  Furthermore, when a predetermined operation is performed by the instructor and the instructor terminal 20 receives a screen output instruction (S220), the instructor terminal 20 is applied to the electronic blackboard 21 paired in S217. Screen data is transmitted (S221), and the display unit 2101 of the electronic blackboard 21 displays the data (S222). Instead of transmitting the screen data in S221 in a single shot, the screen data may be continuously transmitted until a predetermined operation is performed by the instructor and a screen output stop instruction is issued from the instructor terminal 20. The screen data referred to here is, for example, a video input signal, an HDMI signal, or the like. In addition, data (still image data) obtained by capturing the content displayed by the instructor terminal 20 may be used.

  In addition, the display example of each of the terminal 20 for leaders and the electronic blackboard 21 is shown in FIG. Here, the screen data (screen data A; screen data that may be shown to the learner) opened on the screen of the instructor terminal 20 and the screen data (screen data B; learned) opened the teaching material for the instructor. Screen data) that the user does not want to see. Before the screen output instruction in S220 is performed, no screen data to be output is input, so nothing is displayed on the screen of the electronic blackboard 21 (FIG. 24A). When a screen output instruction for screen A is issued in S220, screen data A is displayed on the screen of the electronic blackboard 21 (FIG. 24B).

  When the instructor terminal 20 receives an operation for instructing to open a predetermined page of the textbook (S223), the instructor terminal 20 transmits designated page information to the learner terminals 10 in the class at the same time. (S224). The designated page information includes information specifying a textbook and information indicating a page number to be opened. The learner's terminal 10 that has received the designated page information opens the designated page of the designated textbook (S225). By the operation of the instructor, the designated textbook page can be opened on the display unit 1001 of the learner's terminal 10, so that the learner does not miss the instruction of the instructor and become confused.

  In addition, when the instructor terminal 20 receives an operation to start monitoring the screen of the learner's terminal 10 in the class (S226), the instructor terminal 20 responds to the learner's terminal 10 in the class. Then, a screen data acquisition request is transmitted (S227). This screen data acquisition request may be transmitted simultaneously to all the learner terminals 10 in the class, or to the learner terminals 10 (one or more) designated by the instructor terminal 20. It may be sent only to. When the instructor terminal 20 transmits a screen data acquisition request to a plurality of learner terminals 10, it is not transmitted at the same time, but is transmitted at a shifted timing, so that the communication path (especially wireless communication) Case) congestion can be suppressed.

  The learner's terminal 10 that has received the screen data acquisition request transmits screen data to the instructor terminal 20 (S228). The screen data referred to here is, for example, a video input signal, an HDMI signal, or the like. In addition, data (still image data) obtained by capturing the content displayed on the terminal 20 for instructors may be used. The learner's terminal 10 monitors the plurality of learner's terminals 10 by periodically transmitting screen data to the instructor's terminal 20 or only when the display content is updated. Even when the communication is performed, congestion of the communication path (especially in the case of wireless communication) can be suppressed. In this way, by using the instructor terminal 20 to freely monitor the content displayed on the learner's terminal 10, the instructor can determine whether each learner is answering the exercise. Etc. can be grasped. That is, the instructor can grasp in real time which learner's understanding level is insufficient, and can perform more effective instruction.

  Further, when the instructor terminal 20 accepts an output screen selection operation and an output screen switching operation in a state where the content displayed by the learner terminal 10 is being monitored (S229), The screen data of the leader terminal 20 is transmitted to the electronic blackboard 21 paired in S217 (S230), and the electronic blackboard 21 is connected to the learner terminal 10 displayed by the leader terminal 20. Display contents are displayed (S231). Instead of transmitting the screen data in S230 in a single shot, the screen data may be continuously transmitted until a predetermined operation is performed by the instructor and a screen output stop instruction is issued by the instructor terminal 20.

  A display example of the instructor terminal 20 after receiving the screen data of the learner terminal 10 in S228 is as shown in FIG. The screen data (screen data B, C, D, E, F) of the plurality of learner terminals 10 can be displayed simultaneously in addition to the screen data (screen data A) in which the textbook is opened. On the electronic blackboard 21, the screen data A on which the screen output operation has been performed is still displayed, and the screen data of the learner's terminal 10 is not displayed. When an output screen switching operation for displaying the screen C is performed in S229, the screen data C is displayed on the screen of the electronic blackboard 21 (FIG. 24 (d)). In S229, a plurality of screens are displayed. When an operation for outputting data is performed, a plurality of screens designated on the screen of the electronic blackboard 21 may be displayed.

  In this way, the display content of the learner's terminal 10 selected by the instructor based on the instructor's operation is displayed on the electronic blackboard 21 that can be commonly viewed by learners in the class. Therefore, effective class management, such as encouraging discussion between learners, becomes possible.

  When the instructor terminal 20 accepts an operation for giving permission to the electronic blackboard 21 to the learner terminal 10 (S240), the instructor terminal 20 makes a mode to the electronic blackboard 21. A switching request is transmitted (S241), and output permission data to the electronic blackboard 21 is transmitted to the designated learner's terminal 10 (S242). The mode switching request includes address information and device authentication information of the learner's terminal 10 that has given the output permission. The output permission data includes address information of the electronic blackboard 21 and device authentication information.

  When the learner's terminal 10 accepts an operation for giving an output permission to the electronic blackboard 21 (S243), the learner's terminal 10 controls the learner's terminal 10 with respect to the electronic blackboard 21 specified by the output permission data. Screen data is transmitted (S244), and the electronic blackboard 21 displays the data (S245). At this time, identity verification using the above-described authentication information may be performed between the learner's terminal 10 and the electronic blackboard 21. Instead of transmitting the screen data in S244 in a single shot, the screen data may be continuously transmitted until the learner's terminal 10 receives a screen output stop instruction. The screen data referred to here is, for example, a video input signal, an HDMI signal, or the like. In addition, it may be data (still image data) obtained by capturing the content displayed by the learner's terminal 10.

As described above, the display contents of the learner's terminal 10 are displayed on the electronic blackboard 21 that can be commonly viewed by learners in the class based on the learner's operation. When the mode is switched in S241, nothing is displayed on the electronic blackboard 21 (FIG. 25 (e)). When an output operation is performed in S243, the screen data (screen data G) of the learner's terminal 10 is displayed on the screen of the electronic blackboard 21 (FIG. 25 (f)).

  If the terminal 20 for leaders receives operation which cancels the output permission to the electronic blackboard with respect to the terminal 10 for learners (S246), the terminal 20 for leaders will transmit the mode switching request | requirement with respect to the electronic blackboard 21. (S247) An output permission end notification to the electronic blackboard is transmitted to the designated learner's terminal 10 (S248). The mode switching request includes address information of the learner's terminal 10 that has given the output permission and address information of the instructor's terminal 20. The learner's terminal 10 that has received the output permission end notification stops transmission of screen data (S249). The electronic blackboard 21 that has received the mode switching request displays the screen data transmitted from the instructor terminal 20 or does not display it (S250). That is, the state shown in FIG. 24C or FIG.

  Further, the learner can freely write questions and opinions to the instructor on the learner's terminal 10 during the class (S251). For example, matters that could not be asked verbally to the instructor, information indicating the level of understanding of the lesson (such as “I understood well” or “I didn't understand this at all”), or answers to the tasks delivered by the instructor during the class It is. The written content is sent to the school server 23 together with the entry date and time, the writer information, etc. (S252), and the school server 23 stores it as note data (S253). The learner's terminal 10 may transmit the contents to the school server 23 every time the learner writes, or may transmit it to the school server 23 every predetermined time.

  When the instructor appropriately performs an operation for confirming the note data (S254), the instructor terminal 20 transmits a note data acquisition request to the school server 23 (S255), and the school server 23 Note data is transmitted to the instructor terminal 20 (S256).

  Thereby, the instructor can grasp the understanding level of each learner in real time. Moreover, the accumulation | storage of this can grasp | ascertain the learning history of each learner.

  Moreover, the instructor or the learner can directly write on the electronic blackboard 21 during the lesson (S260). When the terminal 20 for leaders receives the operation which preserve | saves the content written in the electronic blackboard 21 (S261), the terminal 20 for leaders will transmit a data preservation | save request | requirement with respect to the electronic blackboard 21 (S262). The blackboard 21 transmits capture data of the electronic blackboard screen to the instructor terminal 20 (S263). The electronic blackboard 21 may accept an operation for saving the written content. The instructor terminal 20 that has received the captured data of the electronic blackboard screen records it (S264).

  When the instructor terminal 20 accepts an operation of transferring the captured data of the electronic blackboard screen stored in S264 to the learner terminal 10 (S265), the instructor terminal 20 makes a response to the learner terminal 10 Then, the capture data of the electronic blackboard screen is transmitted (S266), and the learner's terminal 10 receiving it captures it (S267).

  The instructor terminal 20 does not store the capture data of the electronic blackboard screen, but the electronic blackboard 21 or the school server 23 may store it.

  As a result, the contents written on the electronic blackboard 21 during the lesson are distributed to the learner's terminal 10 possessed by each learner, which can be utilized for review of the learner.

  When the learner's terminal 10 accepts an operation for ending the lesson mode (S268), the learner's terminal 10 ends the lesson mode, and the note data written to the school server 23 during the lesson. Is transmitted (S269). The end of the lesson mode may be automatically performed by the learner's terminal 10 based on the timetable information. However, since the class may be extended, a display prompting the learner to end the lesson mode is displayed, and if the operation to stop the end of the lesson mode is not performed within the specified time, the lesson is automatically performed. You may make it complete | finish a mode. Thereby, the usability of the learner's terminal 10 is improved.

  The school server 23 that has received the note data records the note data (S270).

  Next, a third embodiment according to the present invention will be described. Specifically, an example of collaborative learning in which a plurality of learners teach and learn using the learner terminal 10 will be described.

  In this embodiment, an example of collaborative learning in which a plurality of learners form a group and share one task will be described. In addition, this embodiment has the same configuration, functions, elements, and the like as the above-described embodiments within a necessary range. FIG. 26 is a diagram illustrating an example of the collaborative learning setting process.

  The instructor terminal 20 inputs the instructor ID and the instructor ID password, and logs in to the school server 23 via the in-school network 22 (S460).

  The terminal 20 for leaders transmits the group setting which consists of information, such as the number of persons for every group and the number of groups which the leader set, to the school server 23 (S461).

  The school server 23 creates a group based on the group setting transmitted from the instructor terminal 20 (S462). Specifically, the school server 23 creates or specifies a name, a learner's name and a learner ID for each group.

  The learner terminals 10a and 10b belonging to the same group individually log in to the school server 23 using the learner ID and the learner ID password (S463).

  The instructor's terminal 20 transmits the task information such as the learning time, difficulty, learning content, and common format set by the instructor to the school server 23 (S464). Here, the common format refers to file formats such as the same font, the same character size, the same format, style, and configuration.

  The school server 23 distributes the name of the group to which the learner belongs, the learner-specific information of each learner belonging to the same group, the assignment information, and the like to the learner terminals 10a and 10b (S465).

  As a result of discussion between learners, the learner's terminal 10a possessed by the learner who is the representative of the group transmits the work shared by each learner to the instructor terminal 20 (S466).

  As described above, it is possible to quickly create a group for performing collaborative learning by a plurality of learners.

  Next, FIG. 27 shows an example of the collaborative learning process, which will be described.

  The school server 23 transmits the group creation status, work sharing status, note data for each learner, synthesized note data, and the like to the instructor terminal 20 (S467).

  A learning operation by a learner using the learner's terminal 10 is started (S468).

  After completion of the learning work by the learner, the learner's terminal 10 transmits note data including self-made document data in a common format in the learner specific information to the school server 23 (S469).

  Here, FIG. 29 shows an example of self-produced document data that is note data in the learner-specific information. FIG. 29A shows self-made document data created by the learner's terminal 10a. FIG. 29B shows self-made document data created by the learner's terminal 10b. Self-made document data is data consisting of a title, name, text, and chart, and varies depending on the learner.

  The school server 23 combines the self-made document data transmitted by each learner to create group document data (S473). Group document data is a combination of learner's note data or self-made document data, and is the result of collaborative learning. Note that group document data is given read / write access rights only to learners and instructors belonging to the group, for example, and cannot be edited by others. Specifically, when group document data is stored in the storage unit 2004 of the school server 23, information that can be read and written only by learners and instructors belonging to the group that has achieved the result is added. The school server 23 refers to this information, for example, when a learner's terminal used by a learner in another group attempts to read out information stored in the storage unit 2004 of the school server 23. Try to reject it, if any.

  The school server 23 transmits the combined group document data to the learner terminals 10a and 10b (S474). FIG. 30 shows a display example of the synthesized group document data. The self-made document data shown in FIGS. 29A and 29B are synthesized, and the learner name, group name, date, and the like are added.

  When the group document data is determined to be incomplete by the learner's terminals 10a and 10b or any of the learners (S475: No), the learner waits for correction of the note data and implements it (S472). When it is determined to be completed (S475: Yes), the group document data and the completion report are transmitted to the school server 23 and the leader terminal 20, and the learner terminal 10 is determined by the leader from the leader terminal 20. Wait for success or failure.

  Next, it is determined whether or not the group document data can be passed by the instructor (S476). In the case of failure (S476: No), a correction instruction is transmitted to the learner's terminals 10a and 10b. When it passes (S476: Yes), the terminal 20 for leaders transmits a notice of success to the terminals 10a and 10b for learners (S477).

  As described above, it is not necessary for the learner himself to synthesize a plurality of self-created document data to create group document data, which is convenient for the user.

  FIG. 28 is a diagram illustrating an example of the collaborative learning announcement process.

  Here, the learner's terminal 10c is a learner's terminal 10 that does not belong to the same group as the learner's terminal 10a and the learner's terminal 10b, and has logged into the school server 23 and has been verified.

  The instructor terminal 20 transmits to the school server 23 a message indicating that the group document data of the desired group is to be displayed (S478).

  The school server 23 receives an instruction from the instructor terminal 20, and issues an instruction to output the corresponding self-made document data to an external output device such as the electronic blackboard 21, a projector, or a printer (S479).

  The learner's terminal 10c and the instructor's terminal 20 transmit evaluations and comments to the school server 23 (S480 and S481).

  The school server 23 stores learner-specific information such as notebook data and learning history, and notifies the stored contents to the learner terminals 10a and 10b (S483).

  In the present embodiment, a plurality of learners can create one group, and each learner's terminal 10 can be used to share work for one task and to learn collaboratively. Also, by using a common format, note data created by the learner can be easily synthesized.

  Next, a fourth embodiment according to the present invention will be described. Specifically, an example will be described in which a learner takes a test using the learner's terminal 10 and obtains a scoring result in the school. In addition, this embodiment has the same configuration, functions, elements, and the like as the above-described embodiments within a necessary range.

  31 and 32 are diagrams showing an example of a test test process.

  The instructor terminal 20 logs in to the school server 23 using the instructor ID and the instructor password (S400).

The learner's terminal 10 logs in to the school server 23 using the learner ID and the learner's password (S401).
The instructor terminal 20 has a test ID, a test time setting, a textbook viewing restriction, an application activation (computer) restriction, a web search availability setting, a web search range setting, a midway exit availability setting, a graffiti availability setting, a learner terminal. Error setting, answer backup setting, etc. are performed (S402).

  The instructor terminal 20 transmits a test mode setting instruction to the learner terminal 10 and the school server 23 (S403).

  The learner's terminal 10 analyzes the test setting information included in the test mode setting instruction. The test setting information includes restriction information such as a test title, a test ID, a required time for the test, textbook browsing disabled, application activation disabled, and web search disabled.

  The school server 23 has data including a test title, test ID, assignment, problem, answer column template, and the like.

  Here, the test mode setting process (S404) performed when the learner's terminal 10 receives a test mode setting instruction from the instructor terminal 20 will be described in detail with reference to FIG.

  The learner's terminal 10 stores the current setting status in the storage unit 1004 as existing setting information (S430).

  Next, various settings such as camera unit 1008 inoperable, voice output unit 1010 inoperable, textbook browsing disabled, application activation disabled, and web search disabled are performed (S431).

  After completing the various settings, the control unit 1005 checks the remaining battery level of the power supply unit 1003 (S432), and calculates the remaining drive time of the learner's terminal 10 from the remaining battery level (S433).

  The test time which is the answer time of the test in the test mode setting instruction of the instructor terminal 20 is compared with the driving time (S434).

  When the test time exceeds the drive time (S434: Yes), the control unit 1005 sets an abnormality flag and terminates abnormally (S435).

  When the test time is less than the drive time (S434: No), the control unit 1005 completes the test mode setting (S436).

  Next, the learner's terminal 10 transmits a setting completion notification to the school server 23 (S405), and the school server 23 determines the abnormality of the learner's terminal 10 from the presence / absence of the abnormality flag (S435) (S406). If there is an abnormality (S406: Yes), the school server 23 notifies the terminal-specific information to the instructor terminal 20, and responds to an abnormality such as restarting the learner terminal 10 or replacing the instructor with an alternative terminal. (S407).

  When there is no abnormality (S406: No), the school server 23 distributes the test data corresponding to the test ID to the learner's terminal 10 and the instructor's terminal 20 (S408). At this point, the test contents are not displayed.

  The learner's terminal 10 notifies the school server 23 and the instructor's terminal 20 that the learner is ready to take the test in response to accepting a predetermined operation by the learner who is ready to take the test. (S409).

  The instructor's terminal 20 displays test data or the preparation status of each learner for taking an examination based on the instructor's operation (S410). When receiving a predetermined operation by the leader who has determined that the test can be started, the leader terminal 20 transmits a test start instruction to the school server 23 and the learner terminal 10 (S411).

  The learner's terminal 10 receives the test start instruction from the instructor's terminal 20, starts displaying the contents in the test data, and transmits the learner ID to the school server 23 (S412).

  The school server 23 receives the test start instruction and starts a timer (S413). The content of the test is displayed on the learner's terminal 10, and the learner answers.

  The learner's terminal 10 transmits answer data to the school server 23 for each answer of the test (S417). By transmitting the answer data for each answer, the school server 23 can hold the learner's answer even if the learner's terminal 10 has an abnormality such as freezing. Not only this but answer data may be transmitted for every time, and it becomes possible to reduce communication traffic by changing transmission timing in each learner's terminal 10. Note that the answer data transmitted to the school server 23 is held by the school server 23 so that a learner who desires the correction can correct it later.

  The school server 23 counts the answer status of the learner's terminal 10, for example, the progress of the question answering time and the like, and the instructor terminal 20 monitors the answer status as needed (S418). By freely monitoring the screen of the learner's terminal 10 using the instructor's terminal 20, the instructor can grasp how far the answer of the test has progressed for each learner. That is, the instructor can grasp in real time which learner's understanding level is insufficient, and can perform more effective instruction.

  When the learner's terminal 10 accepts the test answer ending operation based on the learner's operation (S419: Yes), the learner's terminal 10 transmits the answer data to the school server 23, and transmits a midway ending notice to the instructor terminal 20. .

  When the test answer ending operation has not been performed (S419: No), the school server 23 transmits to the learner's terminal 5 minutes before the end of the timer 5 minutes before the end of the timer (S420).

  When the timer ends, the school server 23 requests the learner's terminal 10 to forcibly end the answer (S421). When the learner's terminal 10 receives this request for compulsory answer termination, for example, the learner's terminal 10 displays a message such as “End of test time” on the display unit 1001 of the learner terminal 10, and for the answer by the learner Do not accept operations. Thereafter, the learner's terminal 10 performs a test mode canceling process for canceling the test mode setting (S422).

  FIG. 34 is a diagram illustrating an example of a test mode release process.

  The learner's terminal 10 calls the terminal setting information stored in the storage unit 1004 during the test mode setting process (S438). Then, settings similar to the various settings during the test mode setting process are performed (S439), and the test mode setting is canceled (S440).

  After canceling the test mode setting, the learner's terminal 10 transmits the answer data to the school server 23 (S423).

  The school server 23 refers to the model answer stored in advance and scores the answer data transmitted by each learner's terminal 10 (S424).

  After completing the scoring, the school server 23 notifies the scoring result to the corresponding learner's terminal 10 (S425), and the learner's terminal 10 displays the scoring result (S426).

  After the scoring of the test, the school server 23 calculates a class average score, a correct answer rate, etc. (S427), and notifies the instructor terminal 20 as test scoring information (S428).

  The instructor terminal 20 displays class-specific information such as class average score and correct answer rate (S429).

  In the present embodiment, voice output is impossible and textbook browsing is not possible due to the restriction information. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, only a part of the textbook data may be permitted to be browsed or not viewable. Or you may set according to a learner.

  Moreover, although the abnormality diagnosis of the terminal 10 for learners was performed by the school server 23 in S406, it is not restricted to this. For example, the learner's terminal 10 may make a self-determination.

  Moreover, although the school server 23 graded automatically about the scoring and transmitted to the terminal 10 for learners, it is not restricted to this. For example, the learner's terminal 10 or the instructor terminal 20 may automatically score, or the scoring may be started by the instructor's operation. When the school server 23 scores, the processing load of the learner's terminal 10 or the instructor's terminal 20 can be reduced. On the other hand, by scoring at the learner's terminal 10, scoring can be performed even outside the network. By scoring at the terminal 20 for instructors, it is possible to perform scoring of difficult tasks such as paintings, addition of comments, etc., and fine guidance can be performed.

  Moreover, although the school server 23 notified the learner's terminal 10 about the scoring result display and the test result display, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the instructor terminal 20 may notify the learner terminal 10 by an operation of the instructor. This can prevent unintended information from being disclosed to the learner.

  In this embodiment, unnecessary functions not intended by the instructor at the time of taking the test are restricted, so that the learner can be prevented from cheating. In addition, the possibility of the test being interrupted can be reduced by determining the abnormality of the terminal such as a battery failure in advance. Further, by providing a timer for each learner, it is possible to obtain an equal test taking time.

  Next, a fifth embodiment according to the present invention will be described. In this embodiment, a specific method of processing for evaluating a learner's grade will be described. In addition, this embodiment has the same configuration, functions, elements, and the like as the above-described embodiments within a necessary range.

  An example of the school system of the present embodiment is shown in FIG. In the school network 22 of the present embodiment, a class teacher instructor terminal 20a that is a user who is a class teacher and a subject instructor in charge of teaching a specific subject is used. The terminal 20b is connected, and the others are the same as in FIG. In the following, in order to simplify the explanation, there is a single subject instructor terminal 20b. However, there are usually a plurality of subjects and subject instructors in charge of the subject. There are multiple terminals.

  FIG. 36 is a diagram illustrating an example of a result process.

  Each learner's terminal 10, the classroom teacher's terminal 20a, and the subject teacher's terminal 20b register the grade information necessary for the grade processing in the school server 23 (S101).

  The grade information includes, for example, information for evaluating learning results including test results for each subject, information for evaluating learning attitudes, information for evaluating cooperation within the organization, and the like. This is the information necessary to evaluate the learner's subject grades and overall grades.

  Note that the timing at which the grade information is registered depends on the content of the grade information. For example, when evaluating the learning grade, specifically, when using the test grade, the graded result after the test is conducted is the learner's terminal. It is only necessary to register at the timing stored in. When evaluating the learning attitude, specifically, when using the number of utterances in a class, the number of utterances is measured using the voice input unit 1009 of the learner's terminal 10, and the measurement result is calculated at the end of the class. May be registered in the school server 23.

  In addition, at the end of each class, the subject instructor terminal 20b may register the learning attitude. Moreover, the class teacher instructor's terminal 20a may register the cooperation in the learner's organization at the end of the class of the day. Alternatively, the communication unit 1006 measures the communication amount with other learners in the class, stores the daily communication amount and the communication partner as the communication state in the storage unit 1004, and if there is a large amount of communication and the communication partner, there is much communication. Since it can be taken, it may be registered as information for evaluating cooperation within the organization.

  Next, the subject supervisor confirms the result information of the subject subject, and corrects and registers as necessary using the subject supervisor terminal 20b (S102).

  Next, the school server 23 performs subject-specific result processing (S103). Specifically, the subject-specific result processing includes a process of statistics of the results of each subject for each grade or class and creating the learner's results in the subject as subject-specific results. This can be said to be a process of calculating the grades to be entered in the notification table of each learner.

  Next, the school server 23 performs learner-specific results processing (S104). Specifically, the learner-by-learning result processing creates notification table data to be notified to the learner as a comprehensive result based on the subject-specific result and the result information calculated for each subject. FIG. 37 shows a specific example of the notification table data. The notification table data includes school-specific information, grade-specific information, class-specific information, learner basic information, and learner-specific information, such as school name, class name, homeroom name, learner ID, learner name, each Includes subject grades, findings, attendance information, parental information, and parental approval. The findings are those that are automatically generated by extracting information that should be noted from the subject-specific grades and the grade information. For example, if the communication state for evaluating the cooperation within the organization is obtained from the result information, and the statistical processing result shows that the deviation value of the communication state is remarkably good, “there is an exchange with many friends. "This is a popular person." In addition, sentences are automatically generated from attendance information such as “No absence”.

  Next, the school server 23 transmits the generated notification table data to the class charge instructor terminal 20a (S105).

  The class supervisor instructor terminal 20a that has received the notification table data performs notification table processing (S106). The notification table processing specifically includes display of notification table data, confirmation by the instructor, and description of findings, and the class staff corrects the notification table data as necessary and registers it in the school server 23 (S107).

  The school server 23 performs the whole school results processing from the notification table data of the learners of all the schools (S108). Specifically, on-campus statistical data of the grades of learners enrolled in the school is calculated. The on-campus statistical data is statistical data in which an arbitrary student enrolled in the school, such as an average of school attendance rate and an average of exam results common throughout the country, is a population.

  Next, the school server 23 transmits a notification table to the learner's terminal 10 (S109). Next, in the learner's terminal 10 that has received the notification table, the notification table is approved by the guardian (S110). The notification table approval method is implemented, for example, when a password known only to a guardian is input. Further, information that can be browsed only by a guardian at the time of the approval may be displayed.

  Next, the learner's terminal 10 transmits the approval result to the school server 23 (S111). The approval result is information indicating that the guardian confirms and approves the contents of the notification table. For example, the date when the password is entered or the electronic signature of the guardian is entered into the notification table by entering the password, and the school It may be transmitted to the server 23. That is, the fact that the notification table approval process has been normally completed may be transmitted to the school server 23.

  As described above, a series of results processing can be reliably performed with less burden on the subject, class teacher, and guardian.

  Moreover, the above-mentioned subject-specific results processing, learner-specific results processing, and whole-school results processing are not performed at the timing shown in FIG. 36, but may be executed at any timing as long as necessary grade information is registered in the school server 23. Is possible.

  Next, a sixth embodiment according to the present invention will be described. Specifically, an example will be described in which a learner performs homework using the learner's terminal 10 at home. In addition, this embodiment has the same configuration, functions, elements, and the like as the above-described embodiments within a necessary range.

  In this embodiment, note data, textbook data, reference book data, and the like are described as being stored in the school server 23.

  FIG. 38 is a diagram illustrating an example of homework learning processing.

  The school server 23 downloads public performance information from the administrative server 53 managed by the administrative organization (S500). FIG. 39 shows an example of public performance information. Public grade information is a set of grade information transmitted from school servers 23 in some regions such as the whole country or a specific prefecture, specifically, subject, degree of achievement, ranking, average, and It is composed of the implementation rate, etc., and the learner can compare with the national ranking and average and know how many learners have learned by the implementation rate, which leads to improvement of the learner's willingness to learn. Public grade information may be provided for each grade and class. Moreover, although the public achievement information is the achievement level of learning, it is not limited to this. For example, it may be a score of a test instead of an achievement level. In addition, when personal information that can identify the learner is included in the published performance information, it is appropriate not to make it publicly disclosed. However, for some learners, such as those with excellent grades, their names and names may be made public. In this case, it may be possible to contribute to improvement of the learner's willingness to learn.

  Next, the instructor terminal 20 inputs the instructor ID and the instructor ID password based on the instructor's operation, and logs in to the school server 23 via the network 2 and the in-school network 22 (S501).

  The learner's terminal 10 inputs the learner ID and the learner ID password based on the learner's operation, and logs in to the school server 23 via the home network 62, the network 2, and the school network 22 (S502). .

  The school server 23 transmits learner specific information corresponding to the learner ID to the learner's terminal 10 (S503).

  The learner's terminal 10 displays the learning history in the learner-specific information, and the learner selects homework information and notifies the school server 23 (S505).

  Here, the selection of homework is explained. FIG. 40 is a diagram illustrating a display example of a homework list. This homework list is displayed on the display unit 1001 of the learner's terminal 10, and information such as name, class rank, national rank, achievement level of each subject, final learning date and time, and information are browsed with different information for each learner. it can. For example, the notification displays the update status of class units, new homework distribution information, and the like. When the learner selects arithmetic, the display unit 1001 of the learner's terminal 10 displays as shown in FIG. 41, and the arithmetic homework item and the achievement level are displayed. When the learner selects an unachieved item, the corresponding homework is downloaded from the school server 23 to the storage unit 1004 of the learner's terminal 10 so that the homework can be learned.

  The school server 23 transmits necessary information such as note data, textbook data, reference book data, and the like from the corresponding learner-specific information to the learner's terminal 10 (S506).

  The learner's terminal 10 transmits data for backup to the learning server 23 every time the learner answers during learning (S507).

  Based on the operation by the learner, the learner's terminal 10 transmits to the school server 23 the learning completion by the learner and the answer data as a result thereof (S508).

  The school server 23 scores the answer data (S509).

  The instructor terminal 20 can monitor learner-specific information and class-specific information, and transmits the evaluation and comments input by the instructor to the school server 23 (S510).

  The school server 23 updates the learner specific information and the public achievement information, and transmits it to the learner's terminal 10 (S511).

  The display unit 1001 of the learner's terminal 10 displays as shown in FIG. 42, and the learner confirms the class progress in the class specific information, the learning history in the learner specific information, and the like (S512).

  In the present embodiment, use at home is taken as an example, and the learner's terminal 10 accesses the school server 23 via the home network 62 and the network 2, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, as shown in FIG. 1, it is possible to learn regardless of the home network 62 by accessing the school server 23 via the network 2 that is high-speed wireless communication such as LTE or WiMAX. Moreover, in the present Example, although the school server 23 scored, it is not restricted to this. For example, the learner's terminal 10 or the instructor's terminal 20 may perform the scoring process, or a method in which a guardian or an instructor directly scores.

  Further, in the homework example, the ranking and the like are calculated between the school servers 23 of each school. However, the publisher server or the cram school server may manage the text purchased by the individual or the cram school original text.

  In the present embodiment, the learner can access the school server 23 at a place other than the school and learn, and the achievement of the class can be compared with the national average. Moreover, since the school server 23 performs the scoring process, the school work of the leader can be reduced. In addition, since the instructor can grasp the progress in the class, the comparison with the national average, etc. on the network 2 or the school network 22, the instructor can be efficiently instructed to the learner.

  Next, a seventh embodiment according to the present invention will be described. In addition, this embodiment has the same configuration, functions, elements, and the like as the above-described embodiments within a necessary range.

  43 and 44 are diagrams illustrating an example of the learner information update process.

  At the time of switching the year, the instructor updates the school server 23 with information on the learner according to the advancement status of the learner (S280). For example, the learner's affiliation grade information and affiliation class information are rewritten.

  In this state, when the learner's terminal 10 receives an update start process of the learner's terminal 10 (S281), the learner's terminal 10 transmits a learner information acquisition request to the school server 23 ( S282). The update start process is a process for starting to download new grade and class setting information, textbook data, etc., and specifically, a process for pressing an “update start button”. The school server 23 that has received the learner information acquisition request transmits learner information to the learner's terminal 10 (S283). It is assumed that the learner information acquisition request is not transmitted when the learner's affiliation grade or affiliation class does not change.

  When the learner's terminal 10 that has received the learner information recognizes that the learner's affiliation grade information and affiliation class information have been updated (S284), the unique information of the grade to which the learner belongs and the uniqueness of the class Information acquisition is requested (S285). The school server 23 that has received the grade and class specific information acquisition request transmits the grade and class specific information to the learner's terminal 10 (S286). Grade and class-specific information includes, for example, new class list information, new class timetable information, information about peripheral devices placed in the new class (device ID, device name, address information, etc.), new class There is a list of textbooks and other teaching materials used in. The grade and class specific information may also include font data for each grade (font data that takes into account Kanji that should be learned for each grade). The learner's terminal 10 that has received this can be reflected in the font data in the learner's terminal 10. This improves convenience for the user.

  Subsequently, the learner's terminal 10 transmits a learning material data acquisition request based on the received grade and class specific information (S287). The school server 23 that has received the learning material data acquisition request transmits the learning material data to the learner's terminal 10 (S288). The learning server 23 may execute S283, S286, and S288 simultaneously.

  When the learner is transferred, the learner's guardian performs the transfer application procedure to the transfer destination municipality, and the fact that the transfer application procedure has been performed is recorded in the administrative server 53 (S290). This includes the ID of the learner to be transferred, grade information, information indicating the school from which the transfer was made, and the like. When it is recorded that the transfer application procedure has been performed, the administrative server 53 transmits a transfer confirmation request to the school server 23a of the transfer-source school (S291). If necessary, an authentication process is performed between the school server 23a and the administrative server 53 before that. The information on the transfer application procedure may be used to determine the school from which the transferee is transferred, and the administrative server 53 associates the learner with the school where each learner goes to school. May be stored and managed, and the school currently attending school may be determined from the learner ID of the transferee. The school server 23a that has received the transfer student attendance confirmation request transmits the transfer student attendance confirmation information to the administrative server 53 (S292).

  The administrative server 53 creates transfer-in notification information when the current transfer status of the transferee can be confirmed by the received transferee attendance confirmation information (S293). The transfer notification information includes learner basic information such as the transferee's name, gender, date of birth, address, guardian's name, and emergency contact information. The administrative server 53 has a list of schools under management. The school list includes a school name, a representative name, a contact telephone number, a contact address, a total number of learners, and the like. The administrative server 53 selects the optimal transfer destination of the transferee from the school list, and transmits the created transfer notification information to the school server 23b of the school (S294). If necessary, an authentication process is performed between the school server 23b and the administrative server 53 before that. The school server 23b that has received the transfer notification information creates a transferee account (S295). Basic information about the learner is associated with the transfer account. If the transfer student account can be created, the school server 23b transmits a transfer acceptance notice to the administrative server 53 (S296).

  The administrative server 53 that has received the transfer acceptance notice transmits a transfer information transfer request to the school server 23a (S297). The transfer information transfer request includes the address information and authentication information of the school server 23b that transfers the transfer information. The school server 23a that has received the transfer information transfer request creates transfer information (S298). Transferee information includes transferee grade information, health information, learning history, and the like. When the transfer person information is created, the school server 23a transmits the transfer person information to the school server 23b (S299). The school server 23b that has received the transferee information records this (S300).

  As described above, when transferring, the guardian of the transferee need only perform the procedure at the local government (administrative server), and does not have to go to the transferee school or the transferee school to perform the procedure. Convenience is improved for.

  Next, an eighth embodiment according to the present invention will be described. In the present embodiment, an example will be described in which the learning status of the learner is summarized for each class or grade and reported to the school leader. In addition, this embodiment has the same configuration, functions, elements, and the like as the above-described embodiments within a necessary range.

  FIG. 45 is a diagram showing an example of a learning status registration process in which the instructor for each subject registers the analysis result of the learning status in the configuration diagram shown in FIG. 1 and reports the grade status for each class or grade. .

  Each student's grade information registration procedure is performed as follows using the learner's terminal 10 possessed by each learner. A learner registers a learning history for each subject in the school server 23 using the learner's terminal 10a (S662, S663). The instructor in charge of the subject A refers to the learning history of the learner, and further registers the analysis result of the learning situation for each learner, that is, the progress of learning, the degree of understanding, and the like in the school server 23 (S664). Similarly, the leader in charge of the subject B registers the analysis result of the learning situation for each learner in the school server 23 for the subject B (S665). By performing the series of steps S662 to S665 in daily classes, the learner's performance information is registered (S661). Similarly, the grade information is registered for other learners (S666).

  Based on the grade information accumulated above, the school server 23 periodically reports the grade information, for example, at the end of the semester or every month, or at any time. The result information is reported for each subject, and the results of the summation for each class are reported to, for example, the teacher in charge of the class and the instructor in charge of the subject A if the subject is A (S667, S668). In addition, for the subject B, the counting result is reported to the teacher in charge of the subject B and the teacher in charge of the class (S669, S670).

  In addition, the results of the totals of all subjects for each class are also reported to the class teachers and higher level leaders such as grade leaders and heads (S671, S672). Further, the result of the totaling of the grades for the entire school year is reported to the superior leader (S673).

  As a result, the learning status of each class or grade is reported to class teachers and higher-level leaders without bothering the instructors in charge, improving the efficiency of management of grade information. I can do it.

  Next, a ninth embodiment according to the present invention will be described. In this embodiment, an example will be described in which the school server 23 manages the use history when a learner uses a facility in the school. In addition, this embodiment has the same configuration, functions, elements, and the like as the above-described embodiments within a necessary range.

  FIG. 46 shows an example of the school system. A library management server 24 is connected to the school network 22 of this embodiment. The library management server 24 records or manages information about books held in the library in the school, that is, the book name, publisher name, publication date, book classification, and information on the description contents, etc. A learner or the like is configured to be able to search for books using the information. It also manages the loan history of books it holds, and manages information such as the name, borrower, loan date, and loan deadline for borrowing books.

  FIG. 47 is a diagram showing an example of a book lending history registration process in which the school server 23 registers a book lending history, and the instructor refers to this together with the learning history.

  Based on the learner's operation, the learner's terminal 10 registers the learning history for each subject in the school server 23 (S691). Based on the registered learning history, the school room management server 24 searches the school server 23 for books related to the learning content from the subject content being learned, keywords included therein, and the like (S692). The library management server 24 notifies the learner of the recommendation of the reference book by sending information about the book picked up as a result of the search to the learner's terminal 10 (S693). When the recommended learner borrows the book (S694), based on the operation of the librarian, the library management server 24 determines the name of the book, the date and time of the loan, the loan deadline, Information relating to book lending, such as the name and learner ID of the learner who borrowed the book, is stored as a book lending history, and this information is registered in the school server 23 (S695).

  When the lending deadline approaches, the library management server 24 transmits a message to that effect to the learner's terminal 10, and notifies the borrower learner that the lending deadline is approaching (S696). When the loan deadline has been exceeded, the library management server 24 sends the fact that the deadline has been exceeded to the learner's terminal 10 and the instructor's terminal 20, and the lesson learner and the supervisor responsible for supervision. (S697, S698).

  The instructor's terminal 20 accesses the school server 23 and displays the registered book lending history, so that the instructor refers to the book lending history together with the learning history and grasps the learning progress of the learner. (S699).

  In the present embodiment, since the instructor can refer to the reading history together with the learning history of the learner, it is possible to grasp the learning situation of the learner in more detail. In addition, the learner can receive a book recommendation according to his / her learning history by the library management server 24, and can easily identify a book suitable for himself / herself.

  Next, Example 10 according to the present invention will be described. In this example, when a school learner attends a cram school or a prep school (hereinafter simply referred to as a “cram school”) or studies with a private tutor, a cram school tutor, tutor or other outside school tutor An example of sharing a student's performance information with the school side will be described. In addition, this embodiment has the same configuration, functions, elements, and the like as the above-described embodiments within a necessary range.

  FIG. 48 is a diagram illustrating an example of a grade information acquisition process in which a cram school leader who is a non-school leader obtains learner grade information.

  First, when the learner enters the school or at the start of each year or semester, the school server 23 creates a storage area for the grade information for each learner based on the operation of a teacher such as a teacher (S601). . When the area is created, the school server 23 notifies the guardian's terminal 60 that registration has been completed, and informs the learner's guardian (S602). Moreover, the school server 23 is set so that the guardian can register a third party other than the guardian as a distribution destination of the learner's information.

  The learner's terminal 10 transmits the daily learning history to the school server 23 (S603), and the learning history is accumulated by the school server 23. When the leader terminal 20 reads the learning history recorded by the school server 23, the school leader refers to the learning history of each learner (S604) and knows the learner's learning progress and understanding status. Then, each situation is analyzed to analyze the learning situation of the learner, for example, items that are good or not good for each subject and their degree, and the analysis result is transmitted to the school server 23 (S605). This analysis result is also accumulated by the school server 23 as learner performance information. The above-mentioned grade information registration procedure (S603 to S605) is performed as needed in daily learning as a grade information registration procedure.

  When a parent of a student who attends a cram school wishes to disclose the student's grade information to a cram school leader, he / she accesses the school server 23 via the guardian's terminal 60 and distributes the grade information. A cram school instructor is registered (S606). Thereby, it sets so that a learner's performance information may be delivered also to the registered third party other than a guardian. In addition, the school leader is notified that a third party is registered as described above (S607).

  When a school leader communicates a learner's learning status to a parent, for example, when a notice table is distributed, the learner's notice table data is sent to the school server via the leader terminal 20. 23 (S608). The school server 23 transmits the registered notification table data to the guardian's terminal 60 (S609) and also transmits the notification table data to the cram school leader terminal 70 to learn from the cram school leader. The notification table of the person is sent (S610). Note that the notification table data to be transmitted may have different contents for the guardian and those other than the guardian, or the same contents. In the former case, the school leader sets the contents of the notification table data for each destination.

  When the learner quits the cram school, the guardian deletes the cram school teacher registered as the distribution destination of the grade information to the school server 23 via the guardian terminal 60. Notification is made (S611). Upon receiving this notification, the school server 23 updates the delivery destination of the grade information, and the delivery of the learner's grade information to the cram school leader is stopped. The school leader is also notified that the registration has been deleted (S612).

  In this example, since the parent conducts registration of the off-school leader who is to disclose information about the learner, the risk that the learner's performance information will be disclosed to others who are not aware of the guardian. Can be prevented. In addition, by separating the information for parents and the information sent to third parties other than the parents, it is possible to prevent unnecessary information from being disclosed to those other than the parents.

  In addition, instead of or in addition to registering a non-school leader (ie, a person) as a subject of information disclosure, parents can register a cram school, prep school, or other institution as a subject for disclosing grade information. good.

  Next, Example 11 according to the present invention will be described. In this embodiment, when a school learner goes to a cram school or a prep school, or studies under a tutor, an outside school leader accesses the school server 23 and refers to the learner's performance information. explain. In addition, this embodiment has the same configuration, functions, elements, and the like as the above-described embodiments within a necessary range.

  FIG. 49 is a diagram showing an example of a grade information reference process in which a cram school leader who is a non-school leader refers to a learner's grade information or registers a learning status.

  First, when the learner enters the school or at the start of each year or semester, the school server 23 creates a storage area for the grade information for each learner based on the operation of a teacher such as a teacher (S631). . When the area is created, the school server 23 notifies the guardian's terminal 60 that the access right registration has been completed (S632). Further, the school server 23 enables the guardian's terminal 70 to change the access right in the school server 23. Thereby, the guardian himself / herself can refer to the learner's score information or allow the guardian to disclose the learner's score information to a third party.

  The learner's terminal 10 transmits the daily learning history to the school server 23 (S633), and the learning history is accumulated by the school server 23. The leader terminal 20 reads the learning history recorded by the school server 23, so that the school leader refers to the learning history of each learner (S634), and the learner's learning progress by referring to the history data. As well as knowing the situation and understanding situation, each situation is analyzed to analyze the learner's learning situation, for example, the items that are good or bad for each subject and their degree, and the analysis result is transmitted to the school server 23 (S635). . This analysis result is also accumulated by the school server 23 as learner performance information. The above-mentioned grade information registration procedure (S633 to S635) is performed as needed in daily learning as a grade information registration procedure.

  The learner's grade information accumulated by the school server 23 has information about the access right, and the access right is set and given for each detailed information. FIG. 50 shows an example of the access right of the grade information. The figure shows an example in the case where the instructor of the cram school is permitted to disclose the grade information related to the subjects 1 and 2. FIG. 50 shows a state where disclosure is permitted for cram school leaders, but initially a state where all items cannot be disclosed to third parties such as outside school leaders is set. Disclosure becomes possible after the third party disclosure procedure described in.

  Based on the operation of the instructor of the cram school, the instructor terminal 70 transmits a request for disclosure of the learner's performance information to the school server 23 (S636). For example, the school server 23 is configured so that a cram school instructor can request disclosure of grade information by specifying identification information of a learner, such as a name and a student ID number, on the Internet homepage established by the school. Yes. Upon receiving the disclosure request, the school server 23 transmits a disclosure request confirmation request to the guardian's terminal 60 (S637). The parent / guardian confirms that the student who requested the disclosure of the grade information is the instructor of the cram school where the learner attends, and changes the access rights of the grade information so that it can be disclosed to the instructor of the cram school (S638). The school server 23 notifies the instructor's terminal 70 that disclosure is permitted to the instructor of the cram school with the permission of the guardian (S639). The school leader is also notified that the disclosure is permitted to a third party (S640). Through the above procedures, disclosure procedures for third parties, that is, cram school leaders, are performed.

  The instructor terminal 70 of the cram school whose disclosure is permitted refers to the learning history of the learner recorded in the school server 23 based on the operation of the instructor of the cram school (S641). Along with knowing the understanding status, the learning history at the cram school or the analysis result of the learning status is transmitted to the school server 23, and is accumulated by the school server 23 as the learner's performance information (S642). The reference of the grade information and the registration of the history in S641 and S642 are performed at any time in daily school classes. Moreover, the school leader can refer to the learner's performance information and refer to the learner's learning status at the cram school (S643).

  In addition, when the learner quits the cram school, the guardian gives the school server 23 access right to stop the disclosure permission performed in step S638 in order to carry out the procedure for stopping the disclosure of the grade information. Change (S644). The result of the disclosure stop is notified to the instructor terminal 70 (S645). In addition, the school leader terminal 20 is similarly notified (S646).

  In this embodiment, since the guardian gives permission to the disclosure request from the cram school leader, the risk of erroneously disclosing the grade information to a malicious third party is reduced. In addition, the cram school leader can register the learning status in the cram school in the school server as well as refer to the grade information, so the school instructor can also use this information for school guidance. Is possible.

  Next, a twelfth embodiment according to the present invention will be described. In the present embodiment, an example in which information is shared between the learner's terminal 10a and the learner's terminal 10b will be described. More specifically, an example will be described in which a dedicated sharing application is executed, information such as common photo data is transmitted and received among a plurality of learner terminals 10 belonging to one group, and information is shared. In addition, this embodiment has the same configuration, functions, elements, and the like as the above-described embodiments within a necessary range.

  FIG. 51 is a diagram illustrating an example of a photo sharing process in which the learner's terminal 10a and the learner's terminal 10b communicate to share a photograph.

  First, the learner's terminal 10a activates a photo sharing application (S900). The learner's terminal 10b similarly activates the photo sharing application (S901).

  The display unit 1001 of the learner's terminal 10 displays a button for starting recruitment of participants to the group. When the button is pressed by a learner's operation, the learner's terminal 10a starts a process for recruiting to join a group for sharing a photograph (S902). Here, for example, a process in which a learner inputs a group name for identifying a group sharing a photograph is included.

  And the communication part 1006 of the terminal 10a for learners transmits the signal which recruits a participant toward the terminal 10b for learners by broadcast to the terminal 10 for many unspecified learners (S903). Here, group information such as the nickname, group name, and own IP address of the learner's terminal 10a, which is the creator of the group, is transmitted at the same time as well as recruiting participants.

  Note that the learner's terminal 10b may activate the photo sharing application after receiving a signal for recruitment from the learner's terminal 10a. Thereby, the learner of the learner's terminal 10b can save the trouble of starting the application in advance, and the convenience is improved.

  The learner's terminal 10b that has received this signal displays that the learner's terminal 10a is in a state of recruiting participants of the photo sharing group (S904). Specifically, using the nickname or group name transmitted from the learner's terminal 10a, a message “Recruiting participants. Do you want to participate? Yes / No” is displayed.

  On the other hand, when the learner presses “Yes” and the learner's terminal 10b receives a response operation instructing to join the group (S905), the learner's terminal 10a is sent to the group. A response notification signal for participation is transmitted (S906). In response to this, the learner's terminal 10a and the learner's terminal 10b perform authentication processing (S907), and establish communication between the learner's terminal 10a and the learner's terminal 10b. The authentication process here is a process for specifying a communication partner, for example, transmitting the same password information on both sides and confirming that the passwords match.

  Thereafter, when a photo to be shared by the learner is selected by the learner (S908), the learner's terminal 10a transmits the photo data to the learner's terminal 10b (S909). At this time, in addition to the photo data, photo display information indicating the position on the screen where the photo is displayed and the size of the photo are also transmitted. Then, the learner's terminal 10a decodes the photo data, and displays the photo on the display unit at the position and size corresponding to the photo display information (S910). The learner's terminal 10a waits for the learner to perform an operation of instructing actual transmission after the learner selects a photo to be shared, and then sends the photo data to the learner's terminal. You may make it transmit to 10b.

  Similarly, the learner's terminal 10b that has received the photo data and the photo display information is subjected to the photo data decoding process and is displayed by the display unit 1001 (S911). If the display is successful, the learner's terminal 10a transmits a response notification signal to the learner's terminal 10a (S912).

  Thereafter, the same processing (S913) as that from step S908 to step S912 is repeated, and a plurality of photographs can be shared.

  Here, an example in which photo data is transmitted from the learner's terminal 10a to the learner's terminal 10b has been described, but similarly, photo data can be transmitted from the learner's terminal 10b to the learner's terminal 10a.

  Further, the photograph data to be transmitted may be resized by the learner's terminal 10 in advance. As a result, the data capacity of the photo data is reduced, so that it is possible to reduce the communication processing for data transmission / reception and the photo data display processing. As a result, the display speed of the photo data is increased and the power consumption can be reduced, so that the battery lasts longer. Therefore, user convenience is improved.

  FIG. 52 shows a display example of each of the learner's terminal 10a and the learner's terminal 10b according to the present embodiment.

  FIG. 52 (a1) is a screen in which the learner's terminal 10a is recruiting participants for the learner's terminal 10b. At this time, the screen displayed by the learner's terminal 10b is FIG. 52 (b1). Here, when the learner of the learner's terminal 10b joins the group and presses “Yes”, the screen transitions to the screen of FIG. 52 (b2) and a screen waiting for the start of photo sharing is displayed. On the other hand, the display of “participant: Mr. B” and the like is updated on the learner's terminal 10a, and a transition is made to a screen indicating that there is a response from the learner of the learner's terminal 10b (FIG. 52 (a2)). ). After this, when a certain period of time has passed and the recruitment of participants is closed, the screen changes to a photo sharing screen. Then, the photograph data transmitted from the learner's terminal 10a and the learner's terminal 10b are displayed on the respective terminals (FIGS. 52 (a3) and 52 (b3)).

  In this way, the user of the learner's terminal 10a and the user of the learner's terminal 10b can share and enjoy the same picture.

  In the above example, the case where photo data is shared has been described. However, the present invention is not limited to photo data. Instead of or in addition to photo data, any data that can be displayed by the display unit 1001 of the learner's terminal 10 or data in a format that can be output from the audio output unit, such as text, music, video, and voice, may be used. . If the text can be shared, comments on the photos can be shared, communication can be further enjoyed, and convenience for the user can be improved.

  In addition, although the present Example demonstrated the case where data was shared by the terminal 10a for learners, and the terminal 10b for learners, three or more terminals may be sufficient. In this case, the process for transmitting shared data (S909) may be changed to a process for transmitting data to all terminals belonging to the group. In this way, by sharing photos with many terminals, various photos can be seen and communication can be further enjoyed, so that convenience for the user is improved.

  Next, Example 13 according to the present invention will be described. In the present embodiment, an example will be described in which a learner uses a learning material such as a textbook or a reference book using the learner's terminal 10. In addition, this embodiment has the same configuration, functions, elements, and the like as the above-described embodiments within a necessary range.

  FIG. 53 is a diagram illustrating an example of a textbook purchase process in which the school server 23 receives textbook data and the like from the publisher server 43 and distributes it to the learner's terminal 10 and the learner's terminal 10 installs it. .

  First, the school server 23 makes a purchase request for textbook data to the publisher server 43 (S800). The purchase request includes a textbook ID that uniquely identifies the textbook, the number of licenses, and the like.

  The publisher server 43 selects textbook data corresponding to the received textbook ID, and transmits the textbook data and license data to the school server 23 (S801). Here, the license data is a product key required when the learner's terminal 10 installs the textbook data distributed by the school server 23.

  Next, the school server 23 performs a virus check on the received textbook data (S802), and if it is confirmed that it is not infected with a virus, it is stored in the storage unit. At this time, necessary items are added to the textbook management table.

  The textbook management table is a table for managing information related to textbook data, and an example thereof is shown in FIG.

  In the textbook management table, for example, textbook titles, textbook data and license data storage locations, publishers from which the textbook data is purchased, and the remaining number of licenses are defined.

  Next, the school server 23 creates a backup of the data on a medium such as a CD-ROM based on the operation of the administrator or the like (S803). If it is found that the virus is infected, the school server 23 immediately deletes the data.

  Then, the school server 23 confirms delivery to the publisher server 43 (S804). Upon receiving the request, the publisher server 43 makes a charge to the school server 23 (S805).

  Next, the learner's terminal 10 makes a textbook data distribution request to the school server 23 (S806).

  In response to this, the school server 23 authenticates the learner's terminal 10, and if the learner's terminal 10 can be confirmed to be a terminal managed at the school, the school server 23 transmits textbook data. (S807). At this time, the school server 23 confirms the textbook management table, and confirms that the license remaining number of the textbook requested to be distributed is not zero. If the remaining license number is 0, the school server 23 notifies the learner's terminal 10 that the number of licenses is insufficient without transmitting textbook data.

  Then, the learner's terminal 10 that has received the textbook data installs the textbook data (S808). If the installation is completed normally, the learner's terminal 10 transmits an installation completion notification to the school server 23 (S809). The school server 23 that received the installation completion notification performs license management (S810). Specifically, the school server 23 accesses the textbook management table, and reduces the number of remaining textbook licenses that received the installation completion notification by one.

  Next, the publisher server 43 accesses the school server 23 and checks the license status, so that the publisher server 43 transmits a license management information request to the school server 23 (S811). In response to this, the school server 23 transmits the remaining number of licenses in the textbook management table to the publisher server 43 (S812). In this way, the publisher can always confirm to the school that the textbook data license has not been used illegally.

  Next, reference book purchase processing in which a learner is provided with a teaching material that is not essential in a school lesson such as a reference book from the publishing server 43 will be described with reference to FIG.

  First, based on the learner's operation, the learner's terminal 10 accesses the publisher server 43, selects reference book data desired to be purchased, and issues a request to the publisher server 43 to purchase the reference book data. Transmit (S820).

  In order to settle the purchase price, it is necessary to enter a credit card number, etc. If the learner is, for example, an elementary school student, he or she may not have a credit card. Therefore, payment is made possible by having the learner's guardian perform payment processing.

  Therefore, the learner's terminal 10 designates a guardian address to the publisher server 43 (S821). Here, the guardian address is an address for contacting the learner's guardian, for example, a mail address of a portable terminal used by the guardian.

  Thereafter, the publisher server 43 makes an inquiry about the payment method to the received guardian address (S822). The guardian's terminal 60 that has received the inquiry designates a payment method based on an operation by the guardian such as inputting a credit card number (S823). Then, the publisher server 43 confirms that the credit card number is valid, performs settlement processing, and transmits reference book data to the learner's terminal 10 (S824). Thereafter, the learner's terminal 10 stores the reference book data in the storage unit 1004 (S825).

  Note that the publisher server 43 may manage the license of the reference book data. In that case, the publisher server 43 is provided with a license management table that describes the correspondence between the ID for uniquely identifying the learner's terminal 10 and the purchased reference book data.

  For example, if the learner's terminal 10 has a problem and all data disappears and the same reference book data is acquired again, the publisher server 43 refers to the license management table and the reference book data purchased once in the past is free. Provide in. As described above, the reference book data that has been purchased once does not need to be purchased again, thereby improving the convenience for the user.

  Further, in the license management table provided in the publisher server 43, a plurality of reference book data purchased by the learner may be registered as the ID of the learner's terminal 10 capable of storing the reference book data. Thereby, even if the learner's terminal 10 is lost, when the reference book data is stored again in another learner's terminal 10, the same reference book data can be obtained free of charge. Convenience is improved.

  Next, Example 14 according to the present invention will be described. In this embodiment, an example of access restriction will be described. Restricting access means preventing the user from browsing target information without permission.

For example, the textbook contains a page with the answer to the question (hereinafter referred to as the answer page), so the instructor should restrict the learner from seeing the answer page before doing homework. May want. In this embodiment, for example, if the learner has a predetermined access key, the answer page is displayed, and if the learner does not have the access key, it is not displayed. In the present embodiment, an example of access restriction processing of the present embodiment having the same configuration, functions, elements, and the like as those of the above-described embodiments will be described with reference to FIG.

  First, the instructor terminal 20 transmits an access restriction release request to the learner terminal 10 (S830). At this time, an access key associated with the textbook data is transmitted. The access key is generated by the school server 23. The learner's terminal 10 that has received the access key stores the access key in the storage unit 1004 (S831). Then, the learner's terminal 10 notifies the instructor terminal 20 that the storage of the access key has been completed (S832). When the learner inputs the access key, the part of the textbook that could not be referred to so far is displayed on the learner's terminal 10.

  Further, the instructor terminal 20 notifies the access restriction management table stored by the school server 23 that the access restriction has been released (S833).

  An example of the access restriction management table is shown in FIG. The access restriction management table is a table for managing the access restriction state of the textbook data, and describes the textbook title, the access restriction target page, the access restriction state, the access key storage location, and the like.

  Receiving the access restriction release notification, the school server 23 changes the access restriction state of the access restriction page of the corresponding textbook from “present” to “none” in the access restriction management table (S834).

  As described above, the instructor terminal 20 performs the access restriction, so that the learner can learn correctly. Therefore, the convenience of the leader is improved.

  When the leader wants to perform access restriction again, the leader operates the leader terminal 20 so that the leader terminal 20 notifies the school server 23 of an access key restriction change request. (S835). The access key restriction change request is a request to invalidate the currently valid access key and generate a newly valid access key. Upon receiving the access key restriction change request, the school server 23 invalidates the currently valid access key, generates a newly valid access key, and notifies the learner that the access restriction has been re-executed. (S836). The learner's terminal 10 notified that the access restriction has been implemented again deletes the access key in accordance with the learner's operation (S837), and transmits to the school server 23 that the deletion has been completed (S838). ). Then, the school server notifies the instructor terminal 20 that the learner has deleted the access key that has already been invalidated (S839).

  Next, Example 15 according to the present invention will be described. In this embodiment, a management tag is attached to the learner's belongings, and the learner's belongings are read by appropriately reading the information of these tags with a tag reader provided in the terminal of the learner, instructor, or guardian. Can be managed. Specifically, the school server informs the learner what to take before going to school or leave the school, what to take home, quickly informs the owner when a lost item is found, or the school server. It is possible to manage with. Hereinafter, in the present embodiment, the description will be given by taking reading of tag information by proximity communication as an example of a tag reader, but the present invention is not limited to this. Moreover, in the necessary range, it has the same structure, function, element, etc. as each above-mentioned Example.

  FIG. 58 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of the education support system of the present embodiment. Among these, the same configuration and processing as those in FIG. The education support system includes an inventory management tag 10010. The belonging management tag is considered to be, for example, a non-contact communication type tag, and the learner's terminal 10, the instructor's terminal 20, and the guardian's terminal 60 each perform proximity communication with the belonging management tag 10010 to transmit information. Communicate.

  FIG. 59 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of the learner's terminal 10. Among these, the same configuration and processing as those in FIG. The learner's terminal 10 includes a proximity communication unit 10100. It is assumed that the near field communication unit 10100 can operate as at least a tag reader so that it can communicate with the inventory management tag 10010. The near field communication unit 10100 may be a module that implements a communication method such as RFID (Radio Frequency Identification), NFC (Near Field Communication), or FeliCa (registered trademark) in conformity with ISO 18000. The storage unit 1004 stores and manages information read from the inventory management tag 10010.

  FIG. 60 is a diagram illustrating an example of the configuration of the instructor terminal 20. Among these, the same configuration and processing as those in FIG. The instructor terminal 20 includes a proximity communication unit 10200. It is assumed that the near field communication unit 10200 can operate as at least a tag reader so that it can communicate with the inventory management tag 10010. The proximity communication unit 10200 may be a module that realizes a communication method such as RFID, NFC, or FeliCa that conforms to ISO 18000 or the like.

  FIG. 61 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of the guardian terminal 60. Among these, the same configurations and processes as those in FIG. The guardian's terminal 60 has a proximity communication unit 10600. It is assumed that the near field communication unit 10600 can operate as at least a tag reader so that it can communicate with the inventory management tag 10010. The proximity communication unit 10600 may be a module that realizes a communication method such as RFID, NFC, or FeliCa that conforms to ISO 18000 or the like.

  FIG. 62 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of the inventory management tag 10010. The inventory management tag 10010 includes a proximity communication unit 10011 and a storage unit 10012, and the storage unit 10012 includes an inventory identification ID 10013. The proximity communication unit 10011 is a module for performing communication with the outside, and a module that realizes an RFID, NFC, or FeliCa communication system that conforms to ISO 18000 or the like is conceivable. It is conceivable that the storage unit 10012 is configured by a nonvolatile semiconductor memory or the like. The belonging identification ID 10013 stores an ID that can uniquely identify a learner's belongings. Further, although not shown in the figure, the storage unit 10012 may be configured to also store information for identifying belongings such as the name of the belongings and the owner's ID. As a result, when the property management tag 10010 is read, it is possible to edit or acquire information identifying the property without using the network. The property management tag 10010 is embedded in, for example, a seal, and a usage method such as sticking the seal to various properties used by the learner is conceivable.

  In the present embodiment, the learner's terminal 10 uses the belonging ID acquired from the belonging identification ID 10013 as one record, and holds a belonging management database (DB) storing various information related to the belonging. FIG. 63 shows an example of the inventory management DB. The property ID is the ID of the property obtained from the property identification ID 10013, the name is a name indicating the generic name of the property, the last read date is the date when the property management tag 10010 was last read, and the last read location information is the last time the tag was read Information related to the place is stored. The various belongings stored in the DB are considered to be owners of learners linked to the learner's terminal 10. It should be noted that regarding the read date / time and location information, not only the final information but also the past history may be stored. As a result, it is possible to trace the inventory going back to the past. Further, the school server 23 holds all learners in the same form as the inventory management DB held by each learner's terminal in the school in a form linked to the learner ID of the learner.

  FIG. 64 is a flowchart for registering a new property in the property management DB.

  First, the operation when the learner registers a new property using the learner's terminal 10 will be described (S10000). The learner's terminal 10 is switched to a belonging registration mode for newly registering belongings, for example, when the learner operates or gives an instruction (S10001). The property management tag 10010 attached to the property to be newly added is read, and if one property or a plurality of properties to be added are present, a plurality of property belonging IDs that have been read are acquired. Furthermore, the learner inputs information (name etc.) regarding the read belongings (S10002). The property ID and name, the date and time of reading, and the read location information are also registered in the property management DB (S10003). As the location information, information related to the location where the belongings are read is registered. In this embodiment, registration is performed in categories that can be assumed in the range of behavior of the learner, such as “school” and “home”.

  The place determination method is performed based on position information obtained from the position information detection unit 1011 when reading is performed. The coordinates of the school and the learner's home are set in advance, and if the coordinates are within a certain range from the coordinates (for example, within a radius of 200 m), it is determined that the user is at the place. The place determination method is not limited to the means for determining based on the position information obtained from the position information detection unit 1011, and other means may be used. For example, when a network connection is made via the communication unit 1006, a method of specifying a location based on various information (such as a Mac address) such as a base station and a router obtained may be used. This makes it possible to determine the location of the learner even when the position information detection unit 1011 cannot be used or indoors where the position information cannot be acquired accurately. Furthermore, the place to register is not limited to the school and home, but may be configured to register other places such as a cram school and a club room. As a result, the location where the belongings are read can be managed in more detail. The updated contents of the inventory management DB are also reflected in the inventory management DB held by the school server 23 via the network (S10004). FIG. 65 shows an example of the inventory management DB when a new inventory is registered. The property ID is 100103, the name is a calligraphy set, the last reading date is September 1, 2011, the last reading location information is school, and these combinations are added as one record.

  Next, if the learner's terminal 10 is unusable when registering belongings due to loss, breakdown, battery exhaustion, etc., the instructor uses the instructor's terminal 20 to make new belongings instead of the learner. The operation when registering the password will be described (S11000). The instructor terminal 60 is switched to the inventory registration mode for registering a new inventory by operating / instructing the instructor (S11001). Next, the instructor terminal 60 inputs a learner ID of a learner who newly registers a property, reads the property management tag 10010 attached to the property to be newly added, and one property or a plurality of properties to be added. In the case of the above, a plurality of read belonging identification IDs are acquired. Furthermore, the terminal 60 for leaders inputs the information (name etc.) regarding the read property (S11002). The instructor terminal 20 sends the learner ID, belonging identification ID, name, date and time of reading, and read location information to the school server 23, and the school server 23 stores the belonging management DB corresponding to the learner ID. The updated contents are referred to and reflected (S11003). In addition, about the determination method of place information, it determines with the means similar to when the terminal 10 for learners registers a new property. When communication with the learner's terminal 10 is established, the school server 23 transmits the updated contents of the inventory management DB, and the learner's terminal 10 reflects the updated contents in the inventory management DB (S11004). If the communication cannot be established at that time, the information to be updated is held, and the updated content is transmitted when the communication is established again.

  FIG. 66 is a flowchart for changing the contents of records in the inventory management DB or deleting specific records.

  First, an operation when the learner changes or deletes the contents of the inventory management DB using the learner's terminal 10 will be described (S12000). The learner's terminal 10 is switched to an inventory update mode in which the contents of the inventory management DB are changed or deleted by an operation / instruction of the learner (S12001). The learner selects an item to be changed or deleted, and inputs the information to be changed when changing the content (S12002). As a means for the learner to select belongings, a method of selecting from the list of belongings displayed on the display unit 1001 of the learner's terminal 10 may be used, or the belonging management tag of the belonging to be selected is read. It is good also as a method of selecting. Thereafter, the learner's terminal 10 reflects the changed or deleted result in the inventory management DB (S12003). The updated contents of the inventory management DB are also reflected in the inventory management DB held by the school server 23 via the network (S12004). FIG. 67 shows an example of the belonging management DB after the contents change and deletion of the belongings. The harmonica having the belonging ID 100024 has been deleted from the DB shown in FIG. 65, and the name of the calligraphy set in the belonging DB 100103 has been changed to a calligraphy set. In addition, when selection of belongings whose contents are to be changed is performed by tag reading, the last reading date / time is also updated to the date / time of reading.

  Next, when the learner's terminal 10 is unusable due to loss, failure, or running out of battery, the instructor uses the instructor's terminal 20 to change or delete the contents management DB instead of the learner. The operation at the time of performing will be described (S13000). The instructor's terminal 60 is switched to the inventory update mode for changing or deleting the contents of the learner's inventory management DB by operating / instructing the instructor (S13001). Next, the instructor's terminal 60 inputs the learner ID of the learner who changes or deletes the contents management DB, selects the belongings whose contents are to be changed or deleted, and changes the contents when changing the contents. Is input (S13002). The instructor terminal 20 transmits the changed content or the deleted result to the school server 23, and the school server 23 refers to the inventory management DB corresponding to the learner ID and reflects the updated content (S13003). When communication with the learner's terminal 10 is established, the school server 23 transmits the updated contents of the inventory management DB, and the learner's terminal 10 reflects the updated contents in the inventory management DB (S13004). If the communication cannot be established at that time, the information to be updated is held, and the updated content is transmitted when the communication is established again.

  FIG. 68 is a flowchart when reading the inventory management tag 10010 in the learner's terminal 10 or the instructor's terminal 20.

  First, the operation when the learner reads the belongings already registered in the belongings management DB using the learner's terminal 10 will be described (S14000). The learner's terminal 10 is switched to a belongings reading mode for reading the belongings management tag 10010 by operating / instructing the learner (S14001). The learner's terminal 10 reads the belonging management tag 10010 attached to the belonging to be read, and acquires the read belonging identification ID (S14002). If there is no special operation / instruction, the operation is normally performed in this mode. If the belonging management tag 10010 approaches the terminal and the proximity communication unit 10100 receives the information on the belonging management tag 10010, the subsequent steps are performed. It is good also as a structure which performs this operation | movement. Thus, even if the learner does not explicitly specify the mode, it is possible to read the property management tag 10010 of the property registered in the property management DB simply by bringing the property close to the terminal. . Next, the learner's terminal 10 updates the date and time of reading the location management DB record corresponding to the acquired property identification ID and the read location information (S14003). Furthermore, the learner's terminal 10 reflects the updated contents of the inventory management DB in the inventory management DB held by the school server 23 via the network (S14004). FIG. 69A is an example of the inventory management DB after the learner has read the abacus and recorder of the learner's belongings. Compared to the one illustrated in FIG. 67, the abacus and recorder records are each finalized. The reading date and last reading location information has been updated.

  Next, an operation when the leader reads the property management tag 10010 using the leader terminal 20 will be described (S15000). The instructor's terminal 20 is switched to a belongings reading mode for reading the belongings management tag 10010 by operating / instructing the instructor (S15001). The property management tag 10010 attached to the property to be read is read and the read property identification ID is acquired (S15002). If there is no special instruction, the operation is normally continued in this mode. If the belonging management tag 10010 approaches the terminal and the proximity communication unit 10100 receives information on the belonging management tag 10010, The configuration may be such that the subsequent operations are performed. As a result, even if the instructor does not explicitly specify the mode, the belonging management tag 10010 can be read simply by bringing the belonging close to the terminal.

  Next, the instructor terminal 20 transmits the acquired property identification ID, the date and time of the reading, the information on the place, and the ID of the instructor who performed the reading to the school server 23, and the school server 23 holds the ID. Each learner's possession management DB is referred to, and a learner having the possession of the received possession identification ID is searched (S15003). The school server 23 updates the last read date / time and the last read location information of the record of the corresponding belonging to the belonging management DB including the received belonging identification ID (S15004). At this time, the final reading location information item is added to the reading location to indicate that it is a lost item. As a result, it is possible to manage on the DB information that there is a possibility that the belonging is a lost article because the instructor has read the belonging that the learner should originally perform.

  FIG. 69B shows an example in the case where the DB is updated, and the recorder that has been read by the instructor has information on the last read place being a school and a missing item. The school server 23 transmits the specified owner information, such as the learner ID, to the instructor terminal 20, and adds a record relating to the belongings to the lost item DB in the school server 23 (S15005). The lost item DB is a DB that stores various types of lost item information managed by the school server 23. FIG. 69 (c) shows an example of a lost item DB, which manages the property ID, owner ID, name, last read date / time, last read location information, last reader ID, etc. for the property received in this operation. If there is an inquiry, the information of this DB can be disclosed. Next, the school server 23 transmits the updated property management DB to the learner's terminal 10 owned by the owner of the property, and the learner's terminal 10 reflects the updated property management DB (S15006). Furthermore, the learner's terminal 10 displays a message or the like on the display unit 1001 that the learner's belongings have been read by the instructor terminal 20, or emits a sound or voice from the voice output unit 1010. Notification is performed (S15007).

  FIG. 70 is a flowchart when the learner's terminal 10 or the instructor terminal 20 reads the belongings management tag 10010 of the belongings that the learner takes home before leaving school.

  First, the operation when the learner reads the belonging management tag 10010 of the belonging to be taken home using the learner's terminal 10 will be described (S16000). The learner's terminal 10 is switched to the pre-learning school reading mode for reading the belongings management tag 10010 of the belongings to be taken home by the learner's operation / instruction (S16001). The learner's terminal 10 reads the belonging management tag 10010 attached to the belonging to be read, and acquires the read belonging identification ID (S16002). The learner's terminal 10 may be configured to automatically switch to the pre-school reading mode without any explicit operation / instruction. As a trigger for switching, a configuration is considered in which the mode is switched to the pre-school reading mode for a certain time (for example, one hour) from the end time of the lesson of the learner on that day. Thus, even if the learner does not explicitly specify the mode, it is possible to read the belonging management tag 10010 of the belonging to be taken home. Next, the learner's terminal 10 updates the date and time of reading the location management DB record corresponding to the acquired property identification ID and the read location information (S16003). Further, the learner's terminal 10 reflects the updated contents of the inventory management DB in the inventory management DB held by the school server 23 via the network (S16004).

  FIG. 71A shows an example of the belonging management DB after the learner has read the learner's belonging recorder in the pre-school reading mode. Here, the items of the last reading location information are read as they are taken home before leaving the school, so the information is written as having been read at home. However, additional information is written (in front of the school) to indicate that it was read in the pre-school reading mode instead of actually reading at home. Next, the school server 23 refers to the learner's property management DB to determine whether or not he / she owns the property he / she needs to use at home on that day, for example, to do the homework that was given and to prepare for the lesson the next day. A determination is made (S16005). The school server 23 first creates a list of items that the learner must take home from homework given to the learner or information specified by the instructor. FIG. 71 (b) is an example of an object list that must be taken home, which means that the learner needs to bring a paint set and an abacus on September 1, 2011. In the school server 23, the last read location information in the learner's property management DB is in the state of “home” or “home (before leaving school)” for all the property listed in the property list that must be taken home. It is determined whether or not.

  In the example of FIGS. 71A and 71B, the paint set is at home, but the final reading location information of the abacus is “school”.
