Description

Background Art

[0002] With the continuous development of computer technology, new learning media based on multimedia, the Internet, big data, cloud technology, etc. are constantly emerging. Today, users can register for courses (such as online courses or face-to-face courses) through electronic devices such as personal computers, tablets, and smartphones. Online courses provide greater flexibility in learning time and location, while offline courses (or face-to-face courses) have greater restrictions on learning time and location, but can meet the needs of skills that require the operation of physical objects (such as driving, mechanical maintenance), skills that require on-site experience (such as disputes, treatment, speeches, sales), skills that require repeated practice and guidance (such as foreign language speaking, personal sports, dance), skills that require teamwork, etc.

[0003] Currently, users can freely register for face-to-face courses provided by these learning media (or learning systems) according to their own learning wishes. However, the number of places for face-to-face courses is usually limited (for example, due to factors such as teachers, venues, and equipment). Therefore, if users are allowed to freely register for face-to-face courses according to their own wishes, the qualifications of users who register for face-to-face courses often do not meet the requirements of face-to-face courses, resulting in a waste of resources. At the same time, users who do not meet the requirements of face-to-face courses may not be able to obtain good learning results.

[0004] Therefore, there is a need for an improved technique for managing registration for face-to-face courses. Summary of the invention

[0005] One object of the present disclosure is to provide improved techniques for managing enrollment in face-to-face courses.

[0006] In one aspect of the present disclosure, a method for managing registration for face-to-face courses is provided, comprising: receiving a registration request for a face-to-face course from a user; obtaining course-related data of the user and course setting information of the face-to-face course; determining whether the face-to-face course is full based on the course setting information; in response to determining that the face-to-face course is not full, comparing the course-related data of the user with the course setting information of the face-to-face course to determine whether to allow the user to register for the face-to-face course; and in response to determining that the face-to-face course is full, comparing the course-related data of the user with the course setting information of the face-to-face course to determine whether to put the user in a waiting queue for the face-to-face course.

[0007] According to another aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a device for managing registration for face-to-face courses, comprising: a memory on which one or more instruction sequences are stored; and a processor coupled to the memory, the processor being configured to cause the device to perform the above-described method when executing the one or more instruction sequences.

[0008] By utilizing the method and device disclosed herein, course registration can be managed from the perspective of matching user course-related data with course setting information, thereby preventing waste of face-to-face teaching resources on the one hand and ensuring the user's learning effect on the other.

[0009] According to another aspect of the present disclosure, a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium is provided, comprising one or more instruction sequences, which, when executed by one or more processors, cause the above-described method to be performed.

[0010] According to another aspect of the present disclosure, a computer program product is provided. The computer program product includes program instructions. When the program instructions are executed by a computer, the computer executes the above method. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0027] Although each operation is described in conjunction with a specific device, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the operations described above may be performed by devices different from the devices described above, and the present disclosure does not limit this. In addition, although described as different devices, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the above devices may be combined together or further split into several devices, and the present disclosure does not limit this.

[0028] Figure 1 1 is a block diagram illustrating a learning system 100 in which one or more embodiments according to the present disclosure can be implemented.

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, the learning system 100 may include: a course setting module 102 , a course scheduling module 104 , a course management module 106 , a course registration management module 108 , a course learning result feedback module 110 , a certification module 112 and a course recommendation module 114 .

[0030] The course setting module 102 is configured to set the basic information of the course, such as course classification (such as the learning object of the course), course code, course name, products involved in the course, course creator, course creation time, course quota limit, course status, etc. The course scheduling module 104 can be configured to arrange the class time and place of the course. The course management module 106 can be configured to add, delete, put on or take off the course. The course registration management module 108 can be configured to manage the registration for the course. The course learning result feedback module 110 can be configured to collect the learning results of the course, including, for example, whether the user participates in the course learning and the learning effect of the course (such as the test results related to the course). The authentication module 112 can be configured to authenticate the user based on the learning results of the course. The course recommendation module 114 can be configured to recommend courses to users.

[0031] In one example, a course may include, for example, face-to-face classes, audio, video, text, quizzes, micro-learning, massive open online courses, blended learning, online learning, face-to-face classes, etc.

[0032] Although the above modules are shown as independent modules for the sake of convenience, those skilled in the art can understand that the above modules can be combined or further split, and the learning system 100 can include Figure 1 The present disclosure does not limit the modules not shown in the figure.

[0033] As mentioned earlier, for face-to-face courses, the number of places is usually limited (for example, due to restrictions on teachers, venues, equipment, etc.). Therefore, if users are allowed to freely register for face-to-face courses according to their own learning wishes, it often happens that the qualifications of users who register for face-to-face courses do not meet the requirements of face-to-face courses, resulting in a waste of resources. At the same time, users who do not meet the requirements of face-to-face courses may not be able to achieve good learning results.

[0034] One or more embodiments of the present disclosure provide improved methods and devices for managing registration for face-to-face courses.

[0035] Figure 2 FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a method 200 for managing registration for face-to-face courses according to one or more embodiments of the present disclosure. The method 200 may be performed by, for example, Figure 1 The course registration management module 108 shown in FIG.

[0036] like Figure 2 As shown, the method 200 includes, at step S201, receiving a registration request for a face-to-face course from a user.

[0037] The registration request can be generated, for example, by the user clicking a button displayed on a graphical user interface of the user device and sent to the server. The registration request can also be generated, for example, by the user filling in a registration template file and sent, for example, to the server via a network. The present disclosure does not limit the generation and sending methods of the registration request.

[0038] The registration request may include, for example, a user ID or other user identification information (eg, user name) of the user registering for the face-to-face course and a course ID or other course identification information (eg, course name) of the face-to-face course the user wants to register for.

[0039] In step S103, the course-related data of the user and the course setting information of the face-to-face course are obtained.

[0040] This step 103 may, for example, include obtaining the course-related data of the user according to the user ID of the user and obtaining the course setting information of the face-to-face course according to the course ID of the face-to-face course or other course identification information. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that obtaining the course-related data of the user and obtaining the course setting information of the face-to-face course may be performed simultaneously (or in parallel) or in series (i.e., there is a sequential execution order), and the present disclosure does not limit this.

[0041] In one example, for example, a user's course-related data may include one or more of the following: a list of courses that the user has studied and passed, a list of courses that the user has studied but has not passed, a list of courses that the user has registered for but has not yet studied, and a list of courses that the user previously registered for but did not attend.

[0042] In one example, the course setting information of the face-to-face course may include one or more of the following: prerequisite courses for the face-to-face course, the same or equivalent courses for the face-to-face course, the quota limit for the face-to-face course, and the schedule for the face-to-face course.

[0043] At step S205, it is determined whether the face-to-face course is full according to the course setting information. For example, it can be determined whether the face-to-face course is full according to whether the quota limit in the course setting information is reached.

[0044] At step S207, in response to determining that the face-to-face course is not full, the course-related data of the user is compared with the course setting information of the face-to-face course to determine whether to allow the user to register for the face-to-face course.

[0045] According to this example, when a face-to-face class is not full, whether the user is allowed to register is determined by comparing the user's course-related data with the course setting information of the face-to-face class, rather than allowing the user to register regardless of whether the user's course-related data meets the course setting information. This can prevent users who do not meet the requirements from registering for courses, thereby wasting resources, and prevent users from having poor learning results due to not meeting the requirements.

[0046] At step S209, in response to determining that the face-to-face course is full, the course-related data of the user is compared with the course setting information of the face-to-face course to determine whether to put the user into a waiting queue for the face-to-face course.

[0047] According to this example, when the face-to-face course is full, the user requesting to register for the face-to-face course is placed in a waiting queue by comparing the user's course-related data with the course setting information of the face-to-face course, rather than simply directly refusing the user to register for the face-to-face course.

[0048] According to this method, course registration can be managed from the perspective of matching user course-related data with course setting information, thereby preventing the waste of face-to-face teaching resources on the one hand and ensuring the user's learning effect on the other.

[0049] In one example, step S207 may include: according to determining that the schedule of the face-to-face course conflicts with a course in the list of courses that the user has registered for but has not yet studied, not allowing the user to register for the face-to-face course.

[0050] In one example, step S207 may include: according to determining that the list of courses that the user has studied and passed includes a course that is the same as or equivalent to the face-to-face course that the user wants to register for, not allowing the user to register for the face-to-face course.

[0051] Courses that are the same or equivalent to face-to-face courses are divided, for example, from the perspective of the skills that can be learned by studying the course. For example, if the skill that can be learned by studying the face-to-face course is to repair the bumper of vehicle type A, then the course or combination of courses that the user has previously studied that can learn this skill can be considered to be the same or equivalent course to the face-to-face course.

[0052] By not allowing the user to register for the face-to-face course if the user has already studied and passed the same or equivalent course as the face-to-face course, waste of face-to-face course resources can be prevented, and user energy can also be saved to avoid repeated learning.

[0053] In one example, step S207 may include: according to determining that the list of courses that the user has studied and passed does not include a prerequisite course for the face-to-face course that the user wants to register for, not allowing the user to register for the face-to-face course.

[0054] For example, a prerequisite course refers to a course that corresponds to the skills that must be acquired to learn the face-to-face course. For example, if the skill that can be learned by learning the face-to-face course is to repair the bumper of model A, the user may first have to learn other relevant knowledge about model A, and the course corresponding to the other relevant knowledge is the prerequisite course for the face-to-face course.

[0055] By not allowing the user to register for the face-to-face course if the user has not studied the prerequisite course for the face-to-face course, it is possible to prevent course resource waste and ensure the effect of studying the course because users who have not studied the prerequisite course will not be able to register.

[0056] In one example, step S207 may include: according to determining that the list of courses that the user has registered for but has not yet studied does not include a prerequisite course for the face-to-face course that the user wants to register for, not allowing the user to register for the face-to-face course.

[0057] According to this example, if the user has not actually studied the prerequisite course for the face-to-face course but has arranged (eg, registered) for the prerequisite course, the user will not be prevented from registering for the face-to-face course because the user has not studied the prerequisite course.

[0058] In one example, step S207 may include: not allowing the user to register for the face-to-face course based on determining that the list of courses that the user has registered for but has not yet studied includes a prerequisite course for the face-to-face course that the user is to register for and determining that the study time of the prerequisite course is not before a predetermined time period of the date of the face-to-face course that the user is to register for.

[0059] According to this example, if the user has scheduled a prerequisite course but the scheduled prerequisite course is not within the predetermined time period before the face-to-face class, the user is not allowed to register for the face-to-face class.

[0060] In one example, step S207 may include: according to determining that the number of courses in the list of courses that the user has previously registered but not attended exceeds a predetermined threshold, not allowing the user to register for a face-to-face course. The predetermined threshold can be set according to specific needs, and the present disclosure does not limit its specific value.

[0061] According to this example, it is possible to prevent users who have missed classes multiple times from occupying face-to-face classes, thereby causing a waste of resources.

[0062] The comparison of the course-related data of the user with the course setting information of the face-to-face course in step S209 is similar to the comparison of the course-related data of the user with the course setting information of the face-to-face course in step S207, with the difference being that after the comparison in step S209, it is determined whether the user is allowed to be placed in the waiting queue for the face-to-face course, while after the comparison in step S207, it is determined whether the user is allowed to register for the face-to-face course.

[0063] In one example, if Figure 2 As shown, method 200 may also include: in response to determining whether the user is allowed to register for a face-to-face course, sending a registration success notification or a registration failure notification to the user; or in response to determining whether the user is allowed to be placed in a waiting queue for a face-to-face course, sending a notification of having entered the waiting queue or a notification of having failed to enter the waiting queue to the user.

[0064] The successful registration notification may include, for example, basic course information of the face-to-face course that has been successfully registered, including, for example, the face-to-face course classification (e.g., the learning objects of the face-to-face course), the face-to-face course code, the face-to-face course name, the products involved, the creator of the face-to-face course, the face-to-face course creation time, the face-to-face course number limit, the face-to-face course status, etc. By using this successful registration notification, users can conveniently view the face-to-face courses they have registered for, and thus arrange their schedules reasonably.

[0065] The registration failure notification may include, for example, the registration failure reason. Using this registration failure notification, the user can determine the reason for the registration failure, and it is convenient for the user to make corresponding adjustments later.

[0066] The waiting queue entered notification may include, for example, information similar to the registration success notification, except that it indicates that the user is in the waiting queue instead of indicating that the registration has been successful.

[0067] The failure to enter the waiting queue notification may, for example, include similar information to the registration failure notification, except that it indicates that the user has failed to enter the waiting queue, rather than indicating that registration has failed.

[0068] After registering for a face-to-face class, the user may want to cancel the face-to-face class (eg, due to schedule changes, etc.). Method 200 may also include method 300 performed in this scenario.

[0069] like Figure 3 As shown, method 300 includes: at step S301, receiving a request from a user to cancel registration for a face-to-face course; at step S303, determining whether the request satisfies a predetermined cancellation condition; and at step S305, allowing the user to cancel registration for the face-to-face course based on determining that the request satisfies the predetermined cancellation condition.

[0070] According to this example, after receiving a user's request to cancel the face-to-face course, it is determined whether the request satisfies a predetermined cancellation condition, and only if the request satisfies the predetermined cancellation condition, the user is allowed to cancel the registration for the face-to-face course, thereby preventing the user from arbitrarily canceling the face-to-face course after registration, resulting in low resource utilization. The predetermined cancellation condition includes, for example, whether the cancellation request is made before a predetermined time period of the start time of the face-to-face course.

[0071] After the face-to-face course is full, vacancies may occur due to registered users canceling their registrations or, for example, new vacancies are added. The method 200 may also include a method 400 performed in this scenario.

[0072] like Figure 4 As shown, method 400 may include: at step S401, obtaining course-related data of users in the waiting queue; and at step S403, comparing the course-related data of users in the waiting queue with the course setting information of the face-to-face course to determine whether to allow the users in the waiting queue to register for the face-to-face course. The course-related data of the users in the waiting queue obtained here may change from the course-related data obtained when the users are placed in the waiting queue, which may be due to changes in the learning situation of the users.

[0073] According to this example, when face-to-face classes have vacancies due to cancellation or, for example, new vacancies, the course data of users in the waiting queue is automatically obtained and judged, and based on the obtained data, it is determined whether the user meets the registration requirements, thereby preventing waste of vacancies and facilitating the effective use of resources.

[0074] The method 400 may further include: in response to determining whether to allow the user in the waiting queue to register for the face-to-face course, sending a registration success notification or a registration failure notification to the user in the waiting queue.

[0075] According to this example, after determining whether the users in the waiting queue meet the registration conditions, a registration success notification or a registration failure notification is automatically sent to the users in the waiting queue, so that the users in the waiting queue can know the registration results in time and can make corresponding preparations to participate in the course (based on successful registration) or choose other courses (based on registration failure).

[0076] In some cases, after successfully registering, the user may want to cancel the course registration (e.g., due to schedule changes, etc.), but due to cancellation restrictions for face-to-face courses or other reasons, the user cannot cancel the course registration, so the user may want to transfer the face-to-face course to another user. Method 200 may also include method 500 performed in this scenario.

[0077] like Figure 5 As shown, method 500 may also include: at step S501, receiving a request from a user to transfer a face-to-face course to another user; at step S503, obtaining course-related data of another user; at step S505, comparing the course-related data of another user with the course setting information of the face-to-face course to determine whether to allow the other user to register for the face-to-face course; and at step S507, in response to determining that the other user is allowed to register for the face-to-face course, allowing the face-to-face course to be transferred to the other user.

[0078] According to this example, a user may submit a request to transfer a face-to-face course to another user, and the system may then transfer the registration for the face-to-face course to the other user only if the other user meets the conditions for the face-to-face course.

[0079] In this example, the determination of whether to allow another user to register for a face-to-face class is similar to the determination of whether to allow the user to register for the face-to-face class, except that it is no longer determined whether the face-to-face class is full.

[0080] Figure 6 A block diagram of a computing device according to one or more embodiments of the present disclosure is illustrated, which is an example of a hardware device that can be applied to various aspects of the present disclosure.

[0081] Now refer to Figure 6 Describe computing device 600, which is an example of a hardware device that can be applied to various aspects of the present disclosure. Computing device 600 can be any machine configured to perform processing and / or computing, which can be but is not limited to a workstation, server, desktop computer, laptop computer, tablet computer, personal data assistant, smart phone, vehicle-mounted computer or any combination thereof.
