Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present disclosure relates to an information processing device, an information processing method, and a program. [Background technology]

[0002] In offline face-to-face classes, teachers usually make efforts at the beginning of the lesson to increase students' interest in the subject and materials and their motivation to learn. For example, teachers may start the lesson by providing trivia about the subject, current topics, etc.

[0003] Similarly, when electronic learning materials are used in online learning, etc., by presenting appropriate learning material data based on the learner's learning history when they are accessed, it is possible to increase interest in the subject and learning materials and motivation to learn.

[0004] For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a technique that can appropriately present educational material data in a format that corresponds to the learner's level of recognition.

[0005] Furthermore, for example, Patent Document 2 discloses a technology in which, based on the learning history, a review test of the previous learning is conducted before the start of learning a new unit, and based on the results of the review test, a determination is automatically made as to whether or not an individual learner will move on to the new unit.

[0006] [Patent Document 1] JP 2002-183321 A [Patent Document 2] JP 2003-208090 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0007] However, unless students have the habit of casually checking whether they remember what they have learned and reviewing it, they will not be able to retain the knowledge steadily.

[0008] The above-mentioned technology allows learners to review when they intend to study, but if learners could review even when they do not intend to study, it would help them solidify their knowledge and improve the effectiveness of their learning.

[0009] In view of the above, an object of the present disclosure is to provide a technique that can improve the effectiveness of learning by allowing a learner to study unintentionally. [Means for solving the problem]

[0010] An information processing device according to one embodiment of the present disclosure includes a request receiving unit that receives an access request for first content that is not educational content from a terminal, and a content processing unit that, in response to the access request, selects second content that is educational content based on user information regarding a user of the terminal, and transmits the second content to the terminal. Effect of the Invention

[0011] According to one aspect of the present disclosure, the effectiveness of learning can be improved by allowing a learner to study unintentionally. [Brief description of the drawings]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0013] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings. However, the scope of the invention is not limited to the examples shown in the drawings. In the following description, the same reference numerals are used to designate components having the same functions and configurations, and the description thereof will be omitted.

[0014] (Summary of the embodiments of the present disclosure) According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, an information processing device (e.g., a learning support device 10 described later) includes a request receiving unit (e.g., a first request receiving unit 101 described later) and a content processing unit (e.g., a content selecting and transmitting unit 103 described later). The request receiving unit receives an access request (e.g., a first access request described later) to a first content that is not a teaching material content from a terminal (e.g., a user terminal 20 described later). In response to the access request, the content processing unit selects a second content that is a teaching material content based on user information related to a user of the terminal, and transmits the selected second content to the terminal.

[0015] In this way, the information processing device responds to a request from the terminal to access content other than the teaching material content, and transmits the selected teaching material content to the terminal. This allows the learner to study unintentionally, thereby improving the effectiveness of the study.

[0016] (Embodiment 1) <System configuration> FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating a schematic configuration example of a learning support system according to a first embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0017] 1, the learning support system 1 includes a learning support device 10 and a user terminal 20.

[0018] Although FIG. 1 illustrates one learning support device 10 and one user terminal 20, a plurality of learning support devices 10 and / or a plurality of user terminals 20 may be present.

[0019] The user terminal 20 may be referred to as a terminal, a user device, a device, etc. The user terminal is an external terminal for the learning support apparatus 10.

[0020] A part of the learning support system 1 may be installed in a cloud environment. For example, the learning support device 10 may be installed in a cloud environment. However, the location of the devices (e.g., the learning support device 10) constituting the learning support system 1 is not limited to the cloud environment, and such devices may be installed in an on-premise environment (e.g., in a school environment).

[0021] The learning support device 10 may be used to provide various contents, etc. to the user terminal 20 to support the learning of a learner (an example of a user of the user terminal 20), and may be installed in a cloud environment as described above.

[0022] The learning support device 10 receives an access request to a first content that is not a teaching material content from the user terminal 20 via the communication network 30. In response to the received access request, the learning support device 10 selects a second content that is a teaching material content based on user information related to the user of the user terminal 20, and transmits the selected second content to the user terminal 20 via the communication network 30. This may be interpreted as the learning support device 10 selecting the second content that is a teaching material content based on user information related to the user of the user terminal 20 in response to the received first access request, and displaying (controlling) the selected second content on the user terminal 20.

[0023] The user terminal 20 may be a terminal used for learning or the like by a user such as a learner (for example, an elementary school student, a junior high school student, etc.). The user of the user terminal 20 may be a teacher, an instructor, a guardian of the learner, etc.

[0024] The user terminal 20 transmits an access request to a first content, which is not a teaching material content, to the learning support device 10 via the communication network 30. The user terminal 20 receives a second content, which is a teaching material content selected based on user information related to the user of the user terminal 20, from the learning support device 10 via the communication network 30. The user terminal 20 displays the received second content, which is a teaching material content, on a display device (display unit) of the user terminal 20.

[0025] <Configuration of learning support device> 2 is a block diagram showing an example of a hardware configuration of the learning support device according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0029] The processing device 12 may be realized, for example, by a general-purpose processor or controller (circuit), or may be realized by a dedicated processor or controller (circuit). When realized by a general-purpose processor, the processing device 12 may be realized by one or more central processing units (CPUs), graphics processing units (GPUs), processing circuitry, etc., which may be composed of one or more processor cores. In this case, the processing device 12 executes the functions and processes of the learning support device 10 described above and below according to a program or instruction stored in the storage device 11, data such as parameters used to execute the program or instruction, etc. Such a program may be a program that causes the computer or processing device 12 to function as the learning support device 10 according to the present disclosure when executed by the computer or processing device 12. In addition, such a program may be a program that causes the computer or processing device 12 to execute the learning support method according to the present disclosure when executed by the computer or processing device 12.

[0030] The UI device 13 may be composed of input devices such as a keyboard, a mouse, a camera, a microphone, etc., output devices such as a display, a speaker, a headset, a printer, etc., and input / output devices such as a haptic device, a touch panel, etc., and realizes an interface between a user and the learning support device 10. For example, a user operates the learning support device 10 by operating a graphical user interface (GUI) displayed on a display or a touch panel using a keyboard, a mouse, etc.

[0031] The communication device 14 may be realized by various communication circuits that execute communication processes with external devices, the Internet, a LAN, a VPN, or other communication networks.

[0032] The above-described hardware configuration of the learning support device 10 is merely an example, and the learning support device 10 according to the present disclosure may be realized by any other appropriate hardware configuration.

[0033] FIG. 3 is a block diagram illustrating an example of a functional configuration of the learning assistance device according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0034] For example, as shown in FIG. 3, the learning support device 10 includes a first request receiving unit 101, a second request receiving unit 102, a content selecting and transmitting unit 103, and an acknowledgement receiving unit 104. The learning support device 10 also includes a first content storage unit 121, a second content storage unit 122, a third content storage unit 123, and a user information storage unit 124. The first request receiving unit 101, the second request receiving unit 102, the content selecting and transmitting unit 103, and the acknowledgement receiving unit 104 may be realized by the processing device 12 as hardware, software, or a combination of hardware and software. The first content storage unit 121, the second content storage unit 122, the third content storage unit 123, and the user information storage unit 124 may be realized by the storage device 11.

[0035] The first request receiving unit 101 receives a first access request for a first content that is not a teaching material content, which is transmitted by the user terminal 20 from the user terminal 20 via the communication device 14. Upon receiving the first access request, the first request receiving unit 101 outputs the first access request to the content selecting and transmitting unit 103.

[0036] The second request receiving unit 102 receives a second access request for the third content, which is the teaching material content, from the user terminal 20 via the communication device 14. Upon receiving the second access request, the second request receiving unit 102 outputs the second access request to the content selecting / transmitting unit 103.

[0037] When the content selection and transmission unit 103 receives the first access request output by the first request reception unit 101, the content selection and transmission unit 103 selects second content, which is educational material content, based on user information on the user of the user terminal 20 in response to the first access request, and transmits the selected second content to the user terminal 20 via the communication device 14. This may be interpreted as the content selection and transmission unit 103 selecting second content, which is educational material content, based on user information on the user of the user terminal 20 in response to the first access request, and displaying (controlling) the selected second content on the user terminal 20. Furthermore, the content selection and transmission unit 103 transmits, together with the second content, information for confirming that the user terminal 20 has received (or displayed) the second content to the user terminal 20. The content selection and transmission unit 103 may be referred to as a content processing unit, a display control unit, or the like.

[0038] The content selection and transmission unit 103 selects the second content (to be displayed to the user of the user terminal 20) from the second contents (review contents) which are educational material contents stored in the second content storage unit 122, based on the learning history of the user of the user terminal 20 (information indicating educational material contents referred to (learned) in the past, i.e., the third contents, learning date and time, etc.) stored in the user information storage unit 124. Each of the second contents is stored in the second content storage unit 122 in association with one or more of the related third contents.

[0039] When the content selection and transmission unit 103 receives the second access request output by the second request reception unit 102, the content selection and transmission unit 103 transmits, in response to the second access request, to the user terminal 20 via the communication device 14, information for selecting candidate teaching material content to be displayed to the user of the user terminal 20. Thereafter, the content selection and transmission unit 103 receives, from the user terminal 20, information indicating the teaching material content to be displayed to the user of the user terminal 20 via the communication device 14, and selects the third content, which is the teaching material content to be displayed to the user of the user terminal 20, from the third contents stored in the third content storage unit 123 based on the information, and transmits the selected third content to the user terminal 20 via the communication device 14. The content selection and transmission unit 103 stores, in the user information storage unit 124, the information indicating the third content, and the date and time when the third content was transmitted to the user terminal 20 or the date and time when information indicating that the user has confirmed the third content was received from the user terminal 20, as the user's learning history (learned content and learning date and time).

[0040] The confirmation response receiving unit 104 receives an confirmation response indicating that the user terminal 20 has received the second content (or has displayed the second content) from the user terminal 20 via the communication device 14. Upon receiving the confirmation response, the confirmation response receiving unit 104 outputs the confirmation response to the content selecting / transmitting unit 103.

[0041] The first content storage unit 121 stores first content that is not a teaching material content.

[0042] The second content storage unit 122 stores the second content, which is the teaching material content.

[0043] The third content storage unit 123 stores the third content, which is the teaching material content.

[0044] The user information storage unit 124 stores the learning history of the user of the user terminal 20, that is, information indicating the educational content that the user has referred to (learned) in the past and the date and time when the educational content was studied, in association with the user. The user information storage unit 124 also stores personal information of the user (such as name, sex, age, grade, and login information (user ID and password)).

[0045] <User terminal configuration> 4 is a block diagram showing an example of a hardware configuration of a user terminal according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure. The user terminal 20 may be realized by any one of a computer or an information processing device such as a PC, a tablet, or a smartphone.

[0046] 4, the user terminal 20 may include a storage device 21, a processing device 22, a UI device 23, a communication device 24, and a bus 25. The storage device 21, the processing device 22, the UI device 23, and the communication device 24 may be connected to each other via the bus 25.

[0047] The programs or instructions for implementing the functions and processes described above and below in the user terminal 20 may be downloaded from some external device (e.g., a server) via a network, etc. Also, such programs or instructions may be provided from a removable storage medium such as a CD-ROM or a flash memory.

[0049] The processing device 22 may be realized, for example, by a general-purpose processor or controller (circuit), or may be realized by a dedicated processor or controller (circuit). When realized by a general-purpose processor, the processing device 22 may be realized by one or more CPUs, GPUs, processing circuits, etc., which may be composed of one or more processor cores. In this case, the processing device 22 executes the functions and processes of the user terminal 20 described above and below according to the programs or instructions stored in the storage device 21, data such as parameters used to execute the programs or instructions, etc. Such a program may be a program that causes the computer or processing device 22 to function as the user terminal 20 according to the present disclosure when executed by the computer or processing device 22. In addition, such a program may be a program that causes the computer or processing device 22 to execute the learning support method according to the present disclosure when executed by the computer or processing device 22.

[0050] The UI device 23 may be composed of input devices such as a keyboard, a mouse, a camera, a microphone, etc., output devices such as a display, a speaker, a headset, a printer, etc., and input / output devices such as a haptic device, a touch panel, etc., and realizes an interface between a user and the user terminal 20. For example, a user operates the user terminal 20 by operating a GUI displayed on a display or a touch panel using a keyboard, a mouse, etc.

[0051] The communication device 24 may be realized by various communication circuits that execute communication processes with external devices, the Internet, a LAN, a VPN, or other communication networks.

[0052] The above-described hardware configuration of the user terminal 20 is merely an example, and the user terminal 20 according to the present disclosure may be realized by any other appropriate hardware configuration.

[0053] In the first embodiment, the processing device 22 transmits a first access request for the first content, which is not a teaching material content, to the learning support device 10 via the communication device 24 in response to an instruction by the user of the user terminal 20 (for example, pressing a button to access the first content displayed on the display device (display unit) included in the UI device 23). The processing device 22 receives the second content, which is a teaching material content selected based on user information related to the user of the user terminal 20, from the learning support device 10 via the communication device 24. The processing device 22 displays, on the display device (display unit), an acknowledgement button for indicating that the second content has been received (or displayed) together with the second content, which is the received teaching material content. The acknowledgement button corresponds to information transmitted by the learning support device 10 for confirming that the user terminal 20 has received (or displayed) the second content. In response to pressing the acknowledgement button displayed on the display device (display unit) by the user of the user terminal 20, the processing device 22 transmits an acknowledgement indicating that the second content has been received (or displayed) to the learning support device 10 via the communication device 24. The processing device 22 receives a first content, which is not a teaching material content, from the learning support device 10 via the communication device 24. The processing device 22 causes the display device (display unit) to display the received first content.

[0054] Also, in embodiment 1, the processing device 22 transmits a second access request for the third content, which is the teaching material content, to the learning support device 10 via the communication device 24 in response to an instruction from the user of the user terminal 20 (for example, pressing a button to access the third content displayed on a display device (display unit) included in the UI device 23). The processing device 22 receives the third content, which is the teaching material content, from the learning support device 10 via the communication device 24. The processing device 22 causes the display device (display unit) to display the received third content, which is the teaching material content.

[0055] <Learning support system operation> Next, an operation example of the learning support system 1 according to the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 5A, 5B, and 6A to 6C.

[0056] Fig. 5A is a flowchart showing an example of the operation of the learning support system according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure, and relates to access to the third content. The process shown in Fig. 5A is executed by the user terminal 20. Note that, prior to the process executed by the learning support system 1 described in the present application, the user of the user terminal 20 is assumed to have registered login information (user ID and password) in advance (e.g., in the learning support device 10) and to have been authenticated in an authentication process in which the input login information is compared with the registered login information.

[0057] In step S11, the user terminal 20 transmits a second access request to the third content, which is the teaching material content, to the learning support device 10 (the learning support device 10 receives the second access request to the third content, which is the teaching material content, from the user terminal 20).

[0058] In step S12, the user terminal 20 receives information from the learning support device 10 for selecting candidate educational material content to be displayed to the user of the user terminal 20 (the learning support device 10 transmits to the user terminal 20 information for selecting candidate educational material content to be displayed to the user of the user terminal 20).

[0059] In step S13, the user terminal 20 displays, on the display unit of the user terminal 20, a screen including information for selecting educational material content.

[0060] In step S14, the user terminal 20 transmits information indicating the educational material content to be displayed to the user of the user terminal 20 to the learning support device 10 in accordance with the selection of the user of the user terminal 20 (the learning support device 10 receives information indicating the educational material content to be displayed to the user of the user terminal 20 from the user terminal 20).

[0061] In step S15, the user terminal 20 receives from the learning support device 10 the third content corresponding to the information transmitted in step S14 (the learning support device 10 selects the third content corresponding to the received information and transmits the selected third content to the user terminal 20).

[0062] In step S16, the user terminal 20 displays a screen including the third content on the display unit of the user terminal 20.

[0063] In step S17, in response to an instruction from the user of the user terminal 20, the user terminal 20 ends the display of the third content.

[0064] In addition, the learning support device 10 stores information indicating the third content and the date and time when the third content was transmitted to the user terminal 20 or the date and time when information that the user has confirmed the third content was received from the user terminal 20 in the user information storage unit 124 as the user's learning history (learned content and learning date and time).

[0065] FIG. 5B is a sequence diagram illustrating an example of the operation of the learning support system according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0066] In step S21, the user terminal 20 transmits a first access request to a first content that is not a teaching material content to the learning support device 10. Thus, the learning support device 10 receives the first access request to the first content that is not a teaching material content from the user terminal 20.

[0067] In step S22, in response to the first access request received in step S21, the learning support device 10 selects second content, which is teaching material content, based on user information related to the user of the user terminal 20, and transmits the selected second content to the user terminal 20. Thus, the user terminal 20 receives the second content selected based on the user information related to the user of the user terminal 20.

[0068] In step S23, the user terminal 20 displays on the display unit a screen including the received second content and an acknowledgment button for indicating that the second content has been received (or displayed).

[0069] In step S24, the user terminal 20 transmits an acknowledgement indicating that the user terminal 20 has received (or displayed) the second content to the learning support device 10 in response to the user of the user terminal 20 pressing the acknowledgement button. Thus, the learning support device 10 receives the acknowledgement from the user terminal 20.

[0070] In step S25, in response to (immediately after) the confirmation response received in step S24, the learning support device 10 transmits the first content corresponding to the first access request to the user terminal 20. Thus, the user terminal 20 receives the first content corresponding to the first access request from the learning support device 10.

[0071] In step S26, the user terminal 20 displays a screen including the received first content on the display unit.

[0072] 6A to 6C are diagrams showing example screens displayed on the display unit of a user terminal based on the operation example of the above-described learning support system according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0073] 6A shows an example of a menu screen of various contents provided by the learning support device 10. In the menu screen example 2300A, a button 601 for accessing "Contact Book", which is an example of the first content, and a button 602 for accessing "Study", which is an example of the third content, are displayed. When the user of the user terminal 20 presses the button 601 in the menu screen example 2300A, the user terminal 20 transmits a first access request for the first content, which is not a teaching material content, to the learning support device 10 (step S21 in FIG. 5B).

[0074] FIG. 6B shows an example of a screen including the second content provided by the learning support device 10 after the first access request is transmitted and an acknowledgement button for indicating that the second content has been received (or displayed). In the example screen 2300B, an image 611 showing a flower arrangement as an example of the second content and an acknowledgement button ("OK" button) 612 are displayed (steps S22 and S23 in FIG. 5B). When the user of the user terminal 20 presses the acknowledgement button 612 in the example screen 2300B, the user terminal 20 transmits an acknowledgement to the learning support device 10 indicating that the user terminal 20 has received (or displayed) the second content (step S24 in FIG. 5B). When the "Cancel" button shown in FIG. 6B is pressed, the screen transitions to the example menu screen 2300A shown in FIG. 6A. Also, the "Cancel" button shown in FIG. 6B does not have to exist.

[0075] 6C shows an example of a screen including the first content provided by the learning support device 10 after the confirmation response is transmitted. In the example screen 2300C, "Contact Book" 621, which is an example of the first content corresponding to the first access request, is displayed (steps S25 and S26 in FIG. 5B).

[0076] (Embodiment 2) Next, a second embodiment of the present disclosure will be described. In the second embodiment, the description will focus on the parts different from the first embodiment, and the description of the parts that are the same as or similar to the first embodiment may be omitted. In the second embodiment, the parts related to the confirmation response are different from the first embodiment.

[0077] More specifically, the content selection and transmission unit 103 of the learning support device 10 transmits the first content corresponding to the first access request to the user terminal 20 a predetermined time after the receipt of the confirmation response output by the confirmation response receiving unit 104. This may be interpreted as the content selection and transmission unit 103 of the learning support device 10 transmitting the first content corresponding to the first access request to the user terminal 20 a predetermined time after the transmission of the second content to the user terminal 20.

[0078] Furthermore, at the timing when the processing device 22 of the user terminal 20 receives (or displays) the second content, the processing device 22 transmits an acknowledgement indicating that the second content has been received (or displayed) to the learning support device 10. Therefore, in the second embodiment, the transmission of the acknowledgement does not involve an operation by the user of the user terminal 20 (such as pressing a button).

[0079] An operation example of the learning support system 1 according to the second embodiment will be described below with reference to FIG. 7 and FIGS. 8A to 8C.

[0080] FIG. 7 is a sequence diagram showing an operation example of the learning support system 1 according to the second embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0081] In step S31, the user terminal 20 transmits a first access request to a first content that is not a teaching material content to the learning support device 10. Thus, the learning support device 10 receives the first access request to the first content that is not a teaching material content from the user terminal 20.

[0082] In step S32, in response to the first access request received in step S31, the learning support device 10 selects second content, which is teaching material content, based on user information related to the user of the user terminal 20, and transmits the selected second content to the user terminal 20. Thus, the user terminal 20 receives the second content selected based on the user information related to the user of the user terminal 20.

[0083] In step S33, the user terminal 20 displays a screen including the received second content on the display unit.

[0084] In step S34, the user terminal 20 transmits a confirmation response indicating that the second content has been received (or displayed) to the learning support device 10. Thus, the learning support device 10 receives the confirmation response from the user terminal 20.

[0085] In step S35, after a predetermined time has elapsed since receiving the confirmation response, the learning support device 10 transmits the first content corresponding to the first access request to the user terminal 20 in response to the confirmation response received in step S34. Thus, the user terminal 20 receives the first content corresponding to the first access request from the learning support device 10.

[0086] In step S36, the user terminal 20 displays a screen including the received first content on the display unit.

[0087] 8A to 8C are diagrams showing example screens displayed on the display unit of a user terminal based on the example operation of the above-described learning support system according to the second embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0088] 8A shows an example of a menu screen of various contents provided by the learning support device 10. In the menu screen example 2301A, a button 801 for accessing "Contact Book", which is an example of the first content, and a button 802 for accessing "Study", which is an example of the third content, are displayed. When the user of the user terminal 20 presses the button 801 in the menu screen example 2301A, the user terminal 20 transmits a first access request for the first content, which is not a teaching material content, to the learning support device 10 (step S31 in FIG. 7).

[0089] 8B shows an example of a screen including the second content provided by the learning support device 10 after the first access request is transmitted. In the example screen 2301B, an image 811 showing the stroke order of the character "mo" which is an example of the second content is displayed, and the user terminal 20 transmits an acknowledgement to the learning support device 10 indicating that the user terminal 20 has received (or displayed) the second content (steps S32, S33, and S34 in FIG. 5).

[0090] 8C shows an example of a screen including the first content provided by the learning support device 10 after the confirmation response is transmitted. In the example screen 2301C, "Contact Book" 821, which is an example of the first content corresponding to the first access request, is displayed (steps S35 and S36 in FIG. 7).

[0091] (Embodiment 3) Next, a third embodiment of the present disclosure will be described. In the third embodiment, the description will be focused on the parts different from the first embodiment, and the description of the parts that are the same as or similar to the first embodiment may be omitted. In the third embodiment, the parts related to the confirmation response are different from the first embodiment.

[0092] More specifically, the confirmation response receiving unit 104 of the learning support device 10 described in the embodiment 1 may not be present. That is, in the embodiment 3, a confirmation response is not transmitted and received between the learning support device 10 and the user terminal 20.

[0093] In the third embodiment, the content selection and transmission unit 103 of the learning support device 10 transmits, in response to a first access request, to the user terminal 20 the first content corresponding to the first access request together with the second content.

[0094] An operation example of the learning support system 1 according to the third embodiment will be described below with reference to FIG. 9 and FIGS. 10A to 10F.

[0095] FIG. 9 is a sequence diagram showing an operation example of the learning support system 1 according to the third embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0096] In step S41, the user terminal 20 transmits a first access request to a first content that is not a teaching material content to the learning support device 10. Thus, the learning support device 10 receives the first access request to the first content that is not a teaching material content from the user terminal 20.

[0097] In step S42, in response to the first access request received in step S41, the learning support device 10 selects second content, which is a teaching material content, based on user information related to the user of the user terminal 20, and transmits the first content corresponding to the first access request together with the selected second content to the user terminal 20. Thus, the user terminal 20 receives the first content together with the second content selected based on the user information related to the user of the user terminal 20.

[0098] In step S43, the user terminal 20 displays a screen including the received second content and first content on the display unit.

[0099] 10A to 10F are diagrams showing example screens displayed on a display unit of a user terminal based on the above-described operation example of the learning support system according to the third embodiment of the present disclosure. As in the first and second embodiments, it is assumed that the user of the user terminal 20 presses a button for accessing "Contact Book," which is an example of the first content, and the user terminal 20 transmits a first access request to the first content, which is not a teaching material content, to the learning support device 10 (step S41 in FIG. 9).

[0100] 10A shows an example of a screen including the second content and the first content provided by the learning support device 10 after the first access request is transmitted. In the example screen 2302A, an image 1001 showing a flower arrangement, which is an example of the second content, and a "contact book" 1002, which is an example of the first content, are displayed (steps S42 and S43 in FIG. 9).

[0101] FIG. 10B shows another example of a screen including the second content and the first content provided by the learning support device 10 after the first access request is transmitted. In the example screen 2302B, a button 1011 for preventing the display of the image 1001 showing the structure of a flower, which is an example of the second content, is displayed together with the image 1001 showing the structure of a flower, which is an example of the second content, and the "contact book" 1002, which is an example of the first content. When the user of the user terminal 20 presses the button 1011, the image 1001 is no longer displayed. In this case, the content selection and transmission unit 103 of the learning support device 10 transmits to the user terminal 20, together with the second content and the first content, an instruction for preventing the display of the image 1001 when the button 1011 is pressed, thereby realizing the above-mentioned display control.

[0102] FIG. 10C shows another example of a screen including the second content and the first content provided by the learning support device 10 after the first access request is transmitted. In the example screen 2302C, a button 1021 for switching from the image 1001 showing the structure of a flower, which is an example of the second content, to another second content is displayed together with an image 1001 showing the structure of a flower, which is an example of the second content, and a "contact book" 1002, which is an example of the first content. When the user of the user terminal 20 presses the button 1021, the image 1001 is switched to an image 1031 showing the stroke order of "mo", which is another second content, in the example screen 2302D shown in FIG. 10D. In this case, the content selection and transmission unit 103 of the learning support device 10 transmits to the user terminal 20 an instruction for switching and displaying the second content when the button 1021 is pressed, together with a plurality of second contents and first contents, to the user terminal 20, thereby realizing the above-mentioned display control.

[0103] FIG. 10E shows another example of a screen including the second content and the first content provided by the learning support device 10 after the first access request is transmitted. In the example screen 2302E, an image 1041 showing a flower configuration, which is an example of the second content, and a "contact book" 1002, which is an example of the first content, are displayed. In this example, the image 1041 is displayed in the approximate center of the display unit of the user terminal 20. After a predetermined time has elapsed, the display position of the image 1041 is changed to the lower right of the display unit, as in the example screen 2302A shown in FIG. 10A, and after a predetermined time has elapsed, the image 1041 is no longer displayed, as in the example screen 2302F shown in FIG. 10F. In this case, the content selection and transmission unit 103 of the learning support device 10 transmits to the user terminal 20 an instruction to change the display position of the image 1041 and display it after a predetermined time has elapsed, together with a plurality of second contents and first contents, and to stop displaying the image 1041 after a predetermined time has elapsed, thereby realizing the above-mentioned display control.

[0104] <Effects of the embodiment> As described above, according to the first to third embodiments, the learning support device 10 responds to a first access request from the user terminal 20 to a first content that is not a teaching material content by selecting and transmitting the second content, which is a teaching material content, to the user terminal 20, thereby displaying the second content, which is a teaching material content, on the user terminal 20. This allows the learner to study (review) unintentionally, thereby solidifying knowledge and improving the effectiveness of learning. In addition, the learning history of the learner is stored in the learning support device 10, and the second content (review content) is automatically displayed on the display unit of the user terminal 20 based on this learning history at the time of the first access request, so that the teacher does not need to set the review content, improving convenience for the teacher.

[0105] (Modification of the embodiment) <Variation 1> In the above-described embodiment, an example has been described in which the second content is review content selected from a past learning history, but the second content is not limited to this example. For example, the content selection and transmission unit 103 of the learning support device 10 may select the second content, which is a review question, based on the learning history of the user of the user terminal 20. The review question may be associated with one or more of the third contents and stored in the second content storage unit 122.

[0106] 11A to 11D are diagrams showing example screens displayed on a display unit of a user terminal according to the first modification of the embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0107] FIG. 11A shows an example of a screen including the second content provided by the learning support device 10 and an acknowledgement button for indicating that the second content has been received (or displayed) after the first access request has been transmitted. In the example screen 2303A, an image showing a review question on the composition of a flower, which is an example of the second content, an option group 1101, and an acknowledgement button ("OK" button) 1102 are displayed. In the example screen 2303A, when the user of the user terminal 20 presses the acknowledgement button 1102, the user terminal 20 transmits an acknowledgement to the learning support device 10 indicating that the user terminal 20 has received (or displayed) the second content. After the acknowledgement is transmitted, the first content (for example, "Contact Book") corresponding to the first access request may be displayed as described in the first embodiment.

[0108] Note that display control may be performed such that the confirmation response button ("OK" button) 1102 is not enabled unless the user of the user terminal 20 selects one of the options.

[0109] In addition, when a user of user terminal 20 selects one of the options, display control may be performed to display information 1111 indicating whether the answer is correct or not, correct / incorrect information 1112, and correct answer 1113, as shown in example screen 2303B shown in FIG. 11B, example screen 2303C shown in FIG. 11C, and example screen 2303D shown in FIG. 11D, respectively.

[0110] According to the first modification, the user of the user terminal 20 can solidify knowledge and improve the effectiveness of learning by working on the second content, which is a review question.

[0111] <Variation 2> In response to the first access request, the content selection and transmission unit 103 of the learning support device 10 may (randomly) select the second content (review content) related to (or corresponding to) the third content stored in the user information storage unit 124 for which a predetermined time has elapsed since the study date and time, and transmit it to the user terminal 20. The content selection and transmission unit 103 of the learning support device 10 may newly store or overwrite information indicating the third content and the date and time of transmission of the third content or the date and time of receiving information from the user terminal 20 indicating that the user has confirmed the third content as user information (studied content and study date and time) in the user information storage unit 124. In response to the first access request, the content selection and transmission unit 103 of the learning support device 10 may select the second content (review content) related to (or corresponding to) the third content for which a predetermined time has further elapsed since the stored study date and time, and transmit it to the user terminal 20.

[0112] According to the second modification, by repeatedly displaying the review content at predetermined intervals, knowledge can be more firmly established and the effect of learning can be improved.

[0113] <Variation 3> The content selection and transmission unit 103 of the learning support device 10 may select the second content related to (or corresponding to) the third content recently learned or the third content most recently learned in response to the first access request and transmit it to the user terminal 20. Whether it is based on the third content recently learned or the third content most recently learned may be set by the user of the user terminal 20 or the system administrator of the learning support system 1, or may be fixed. Alternatively, the content selection and transmission unit 103 of the learning support device 10 may select the second content related to (or corresponding to) the third content learned within a certain time range in response to the first access request, and transmit the selected second content to the user terminal 20 together with an instruction to display the second content in chronological order. The certain time range may be a fixed time range, such as the most recent week, or may be a time range set by the user of the user terminal 20 or the system administrator of the learning support system 1 before or after a date and time set by the user or the system administrator.

[0114] According to the third modification, by displaying the learning history in consideration of the order in which it is arranged, it is possible to review the learning history without or with few omissions or omissions, thereby improving the effectiveness of the learning.

[0115] <Modification 4> As the third content, a confirmation question for a certain learning content may exist. For example, as shown in a screen example 2304A shown in FIG. 12A, a multiple choice question may be set as the confirmation question, and correct / incorrect information by the user of the user terminal 20 may be transmitted from the user terminal 20 to the learning support device 10, and information indicating the confirmation question and the correct / incorrect information may be stored as user information in the user information storage unit 124 by the learning support device 10 (for example, the content selection / transmission unit 103). Then, in response to the first access request, the content selection / transmission unit 103 of the learning support device 10 may select second content (review content) related to (or corresponding to) the confirmation question based on the correct / incorrect information and transmit it to the user terminal 20. For example, the content selection / transmission unit 103 of the learning support device 10 may select second content related to (or corresponding to) the confirmation question that the user has made a mistake on. For example, if a user of user terminal 20 makes a mistake in the confirmation question shown in screen example 2304A shown in FIG. 12A, in response to the first access request, screen example 2304B may be displayed on the display unit of user terminal 20, as shown in FIG. 12B, which displays image 1201 showing a flower arrangement, which is an example of the second content, and a confirmation response button ("OK" button) 1202.

[0116] According to the fourth modification, by reviewing the incorrect content, correct knowledge can be firmly established, and the effect of learning can be improved.

[0117] <Variation 5> In the above embodiment, the "Contact Book" has been described as an example of the first content, but the first content is not limited to this example. For example, the first content may be a video conversation, a video call, or a video conference (application; communication tool) between users of the user terminal 20. For example, in the menu screen example 2305A shown in FIG. 13A, it is assumed that the user (user A) of the user terminal 20 presses the button 1301 for accessing the video conversation and selects to have a video conversation with user B. Then, the content selection and transmission unit 103 of the learning support device 10 may select the second content and transmit it to the user terminal 20 in response to the first access request (access request to the video conversation), for example, as described in the first to third embodiments. In response to this, as shown in FIG. 13B, a screen example 2305B on which an image 1311 showing a flower configuration, which is an example of the second content, and an acknowledgement button ("OK" button) 1312 are displayed may be displayed on the display unit of the user terminal 20.

[0118] It should be noted that review questions or revision questions may be selected based on the content of the conversation, and the review questions or revision questions may be displayed during or at the end of the video conversation.

[0119] Examples of the first content are not limited to the above, and may include a game and a My Page (a user-dedicated page) described below.

[0120] According to the fifth modification, the reviewed content can be memorized in association with subsequent conversation episodes, so that knowledge can be more firmly established and the effectiveness of learning can be improved.

[0121] <Variation 6> If the user terminal 20 is equipped with a camera and / or microphone, the user terminal 20 may use the camera and / or microphone to acquire a facial image and / or voice of the user, and transmit the acquired facial image and / or voice to the learning support device 10 together with the first access request.

[0122] The content selection and transmission unit 103 of the learning support device 10 may input a face image and / or voice of the user to a trained model for emotion detection, and acquire (detect) the emotion of the user as an output. For example, the trained model for emotion detection may be trained using teacher data in which a face image and / or voice (input) is paired with an emotion (correct answer) and an error backpropagation method. Then, the content selection and transmission unit 103 of the learning support device 10 may select second content (review content) based on the acquired emotion of the user as user information, and transmit it to the user terminal 20. For example, the content selection and transmission unit 103 of the learning support device 10 may randomly select the second content when the user is in trouble or in a hurry.

[0123] When transmitting the first access request, the user terminal 20 may cause a notification to appear on the display unit of the user terminal 20 informing the user that emotion detection will be turned on (and that the camera and / or microphone will be turned on).

[0124] According to the sixth modification, the lesson is reviewed when a specific emotion is felt, which makes it easier for the lesson to remain as an episode, helps the knowledge to be more firmly established, and improves the effectiveness of learning.

[0125] <Variation 7> The type of first content for displaying the second content may be set (or selected) by a user (e.g., a teacher, a student, and / or a student's guardian). For example, the user can set so that the second content is not displayed when the "Contact Book" is displayed, but can subsequently set so that the second content is displayed when handouts in the "Contact Book" are displayed. In this case, for example, the second content can be displayed when handouts related to homework are displayed in the "Contact Book". The handouts related to homework may be stored in the first content storage unit 121 as the first content.

[0126] In the case where the above setting is performed, when the button 1401 for accessing "Contact Book" is pressed on the menu screen example 2306A shown in Fig. 14A, unlike the above, the content selection and transmission unit 103 of the learning support device 10 may select "Contact Book" and immediately transmit to the user terminal 20 to display "Contact Book", as shown in the screen example 2306B shown in Fig. 14B. Then, when the user of the user terminal 20 selects a printout 1411 related to homework on the screen example 2306B shown in Fig. 14B, the user terminal 20 may transmit a first access request to the learning support device 10, and the content selection and transmission unit 103 of the learning support device 10 may select a second content related to the homework based on the printout 1411 related to homework, and transmit the selected second content to the user terminal 20. For example, in response to the first access request, as shown in FIG. 14C, a screen example 2306C may be displayed on the display unit of the user terminal 20, the screen example 2306C displaying an image 1421 showing the stroke order of the character "mo", which is an example of the second content, and an acknowledgement button ("OK" button) 1422.

[0127] According to the seventh modification, the timing of displaying the review content can be controlled, improving the convenience for the user. Also, according to the seventh modification, the review content related to the homework is selected, so that the knowledge can be more firmly established and the effect of learning can be improved.

[0128] <Variation 8> As described above, the first content may be a game. In this case, the second content may be a review question, and the first content, i.e., the game (screen information for starting processing) may be transmitted from the content selection / transmission unit 103 of the learning support device 10 to the user terminal 20 only when the user of the user terminal 20 answers the review question correctly.

[0129] For example, in the example menu screen 2307A shown in FIG. 15A, when the user of the user terminal 20 presses a button 1501 for accessing “Game”, which is an example of the first content, the user terminal 20 transmits a first access request to the learning support device 10.

[0130] In response to the first access request, the content selection and transmission unit 103 of the learning support device 10 may select the second content, which is a review question, and transmit the selected second content to the user terminal 20. For example, in response to the first access request, as shown in Fig. 15B, a screen example 2307B may be displayed on the display unit of the user terminal 20, on which an image showing a review question on the structure of a flower, which is an example of the second content, a group of options 1511, and an acknowledgement button ("OK" button) 1512 are displayed. At a stage where the user of the user terminal 20 has not selected an option, the acknowledgement button ("OK" button) 1512 may be disabled.

[0131] Here, when the user of the user terminal 20 selects one of the options and answers the review question correctly, as shown in the example screen 2307C in FIG. 15C, an acknowledgment button ("OK" button) 1512 may be enabled.

[0132] Then, when the user of the user terminal 20 presses the acknowledgement button 1512 in the screen example 2307C, the user terminal 20 transmits an acknowledgement indicating that the user terminal 20 has received (or displayed) the second content to the learning support device 10. After transmitting the acknowledgement, a game, which is the first content corresponding to the first access request, is transmitted from the content selection and transmission unit 103 of the learning support device 10 to the user terminal 20, and the game may be displayed (started) on the display unit of the user terminal 20 as in the screen example 2307E shown in FIG.

[0133] On the other hand, if the user of the user terminal 20 selects one of the options and makes a mistake in the review question as shown in the example screen 2307D in Fig. 15D, the acknowledgement button ("OK" button) 1512 may remain disabled. Therefore, the user of the user terminal 20 cannot play the game.

[0134] According to the eighth modification, whether or not the learner is allowed to access the first content is determined depending on whether the review question is correct or incorrect, which can increase the learner's motivation to study.

[0135] <Variation 9> In addition to or instead of being displayed in response to the first access request, the second content may be displayed in response to another operation. For example, the second content may be displayed on the display unit of the user terminal 20 when (the display or use of) the first content (e.g., "Contact Book") is terminated (the first content is closed). For example, the user terminal 20 transmits termination information indicating that the first content is to be terminated to the learning support device 10, and the learning support device 10 (the content selection and transmission unit 103) receives the termination information from the user terminal 20. Then, in response to receiving the termination information, the content selection and transmission unit 103 of the learning support device 10 may select the second content, for example, as described above, and transmit it to the user terminal 20.

[0136] For example, in the screen example 2308A shown in FIG. 16A, when the user of the user terminal 20 presses a button 1601 for ending the "Contact Book", the user terminal 20 transmits end information to the learning support device 10. In response to receiving the end information, the content selection and transmission unit 103 of the learning support device 10 may select the second content and transmit it to the user terminal 20. For example, in response to the end information, as shown in FIG. 16B, a screen example 2308B on which an image 1611 showing a flower configuration, which is an example of the second content, is displayed may be displayed on the display unit of the user terminal 20. Note that when the "OK" button shown in FIG. 16B is pressed, the "Contact Book" is terminated, and when the "Cancel" button shown in FIG. 16B is pressed, the "Contact Book" is displayed again.

[0140] (Summary of the embodiment) An information processing device according to one embodiment of the present disclosure includes a request receiving unit that receives an access request for first content that is not educational content from a terminal, and a content processing unit that, in response to the access request, selects second content that is educational content based on user information regarding a user of the terminal, and transmits the second content to the terminal.

[0141] In one example, the content processing unit transmits the first content to the terminal after receiving an acknowledgement response from the terminal indicating that the terminal has received or displayed the second content.

[0142] In one example, the content processing unit transmits the first content to the terminal after a predetermined time has elapsed since transmitting the second content to the terminal.

[0143] In one example, the content processing unit transmits the first content together with the second content to the terminal.

[0144] In one example, the content processing unit selects the second content, which is a review question, based on the user's learning history.

[0145] In one example, the content processing unit selects the second content based on the user's learning history, and transmits the second content again to the terminal after a predetermined time has elapsed since the user confirmed the second content.

[0146] In one example, the content processing unit selects the second content related to the educational material content based on a date and time when the user studied the educational material content.

[0147] In one example, the content processing unit selects the second content based on whether the question answered by the user is correct or incorrect.

[0148] In one example, the content processor selects the second content related to the question when the user answers the question incorrectly.

[0149] In one example, the first content is a video call between the user and one or more other users.

[0150] In one example, the content processor detects an emotion of the user and selects the second content based on the emotion of the user.

[0151] In one example, the first content type is selectable.

[0152] In one example, the content processing unit transmits the first content to the terminal only if the user correctly answers the second content question.

[0153] In one example, the content processing unit selects the second content related to a subject matter included in the first content.

[0154] In one example, the content processing unit causes the second content to be displayed on a display unit of the terminal when the first content ends.

[0155] An information processing method according to one embodiment of the present disclosure includes an information processing device receiving an access request for first content, which is not instructional content, from a terminal, and in response to the access request, selecting second content, which is instructional content, based on user information regarding a user of the terminal, and transmitting the second content to the terminal.

[0156] A program according to one embodiment of the present disclosure is a program for causing a computer to execute a process including receiving an access request from a terminal for first content that is not instructional content, and in response to the access request, selecting second content that is instructional content based on user information about a user of the terminal, and transmitting the second content to the terminal.
