[0045] Users and instructors can access the online education system (100) using user terminals (10) and instructor terminals (20) and exchange signals with the online education system (100). The online education system (100) may display a web page through a web browser running on the user terminal (10) and instructor terminal (20) and allow access to the online education system (100) after logging in on the web page, or an application capable of accessing the online education system (100) may be installed and run on the user terminal (10) and instructor terminal (20).

[0046] The user terminal (10) and the instructor terminal (20) may be implemented as computers capable of connecting to a remote server or terminal via a network (50). Here, the computer may include, for example, a notebook, desktop, laptop, etc. equipped with a web browser. Additionally, the user terminal (10) and the instructor terminal (20) may be implemented as terminal devices capable of connecting to a remote server or terminal via a network (50). The terminal device may include, for example, all types of handheld-based wireless communication devices such as PCS (Personal Communication System), GSM (Global System for Mobile communications), PDC (Personal Digital Cellular), PHS (Personal Handyphone System), PDA (Personal Digital Assistant), IMT (International Mobile Telecommunication)-2000, CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access)-2000, W-CDMA (W-Code Division Multiple Access), Wibro (Wireless Broadband Internet) terminals, smartphones, smartpads, tablet PCs, etc.

[0047] Here, the network (50) refers to a connection structure capable of exchanging information between each node, such as multiple terminals and servers. Examples of such a network include, but are not limited to, a 3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project) network, an LTE (Long Term Evolution) network, a 5G network, a WIMAX (World Interoperability for Microwave Access) network, the Internet, a LAN (Local Area Network), a Wireless LAN (Wireless Local Area Network), a WAN (Wide Area Network), a PAN (Personal Area Network), a Bluetooth network, a satellite broadcasting network, an analog broadcasting network, and a DMB (Digital Multimedia Broadcasting) network.

[0048] The data transmission management unit (110) can conduct non-face-to-face learning by transmitting voice data transmitted from the user terminal (10) to the instructor terminal (20) and transmitting voice data transmitted from the instructor terminal (20) to the user terminal (10). Through this exchange of voice data, the user and the instructor can communicate with each other.

[0049] Furthermore, the data transmission management unit (110) may transmit voice data and video data transmitted from the user terminal (10) to the instructor terminal (20), and may also transmit voice data and video data transmitted from the instructor terminal (20) to the user terminal (10). Through this exchange of voice data and video data, the user and the instructor can conduct a class via video call. The instructor's class can be conducted for a predetermined period of time. For example, a 1-hour class, a 2-hour class, etc., are possible.

[0050] The learning time management unit (120) can measure the non-face-to-face learning time and, when a predetermined learning time has elapsed, transmit a non-face-to-face learning termination signal to the user terminal (10) and the instructor terminal (20). The instructor's class may be conducted for a predetermined period of time. For example, a 1-hour class, a 2-hour class, etc., are possible. During the class, the learning time management unit (120) can display the elapsed time of the class on the screen of the user terminal (10) and / or the instructor terminal (20), and at the time the class ends, it can display a graphic indicating the end of the class on the screen of the user terminal (10) and / or the instructor terminal (20).

[0051] The learning point granting unit (130) can grant points to the user account connected to the user terminal (10) when a non-face-to-face learning termination signal is transmitted to the user terminal (10) and the instructor terminal (20). Various methods of granting points may be used, such as granting points to the user account in proportion to the learning time or granting points to the user account when an advertisement is watched. For example, if 60 points are granted for a 60-minute class, only 30 points may be granted if the class ends after only 30 minutes of learning. Additionally, advertisements may be displayed on the screens of the user terminal (10) and / or the instructor terminal (20) during the class, and additional points may be granted in proportion to the time the user and the instructor watch the advertisements. Furthermore, points may be granted to the user at the instructor's choice when an accurate answer is given to the instructor's question or when the instructor has diligently completed the homework.

[0052] Additionally, the online education system (100) can provide a pre-saved video lecture to the user, and the learning point awarding unit (130) can award points when the user watches the video lecture through the user terminal (10).

[0053] Users can use the points earned after taking classes to purchase items or pay for tuition. This will be discussed further below. The points awarded at the end of a class can help maintain users' strong motivation to learn.

[0054] The learning data storage unit (140) can store voice data and video data of the non-face-to-face learning as learning data. The learning point granting unit (130) can cancel the granted points if the user does not watch the stored learning data within a predetermined time.

[0055] For example, if a user fails to answer an instructor's question during a 60-minute 1:1 English conversation lesson but learns the correct answer by reviewing the saved lesson footage, such memory persists for a considerable time, and through this process, the user's English proficiency can be enhanced. Additionally, memory retention can be maximized by encouraging such review within a set time (e.g., midnight of the same day). If the review is not completed before midnight on the day of the lesson, the points accumulated during the lesson may expire. Alternatively, it is possible to award additional points if the review is completed before midnight on the day of the lesson.

[0056] The point exchange unit (150) can convert points assigned to a user account into monetary value by applying a predetermined exchange rate. When converting points within the system into cash, the points can be converted into cash by multiplying them by an exchange rate, which is the ratio for cash conversion. For example, 100 points can be converted into a monetary value of 10 won by applying an exchange rate of 0.1. This exchange rate may be changed by the system operator based on a predetermined standard. During the event period, it may be possible to change the exchange rate from 0.1 to 0.5. Participation in short-term classes can be increased through such changes in the exchange rate.

[0057] The course registration department (160) receives a learning program application from the user terminal (10) and can receive payment in circulating currency and / or points converted to the value of said currency when paying for the learning program. That is, the user can use points like currency to pay for the course fee. It may be possible to use points for all or part of the course fee.

[0058] The goods sales department (170) sells goods online to user accounts and can receive payment in circulating currency and / or points converted to the value of said currency when making a payment for said sold goods. That is, the user can use points like currency to purchase goods. It may be possible to use points for all or part of the price of the purchased goods.

[0059] The system of the present invention can form an online community in which users participate, and can induce users to stay in the online community, thereby enabling users to continue staying on the platform provided by the system of the present invention.

[0060] The system of the present invention provides rewards based on the amount of learning by a user of a user terminal, and the degree of reward can be determined in conjunction with the difficulty of learning using AI (artificial intelligence), and coupons can be transmitted to the user's terminal for reward. The coupons can function to exchange goods provided by the system or can be used like currency, and the coupon information may display service details and an identifier image (e.g., QR code) that authenticates that the coupon was issued by the system.

[0061] The coupon transmission unit (180) can generate an identifier image containing the content of the monetary value converted by applying a predetermined exchange rate to the points assigned to the user account, and transmit the coupon image with the identifier image displayed to the user terminal (10). When the identifier image is scanned at an offline store and the converted monetary value is confirmed, it can be used when paying for goods.

[0062] The system of the present invention may further include a learning data display unit (190), a user answer range setting unit (200), a character conversion unit (210), and a learning judgment unit (220).

[0063] The data transmission management unit (110) can conduct non-face-to-face learning by transmitting voice data transmitted from the user terminal (10) to the instructor terminal (20) and transmitting voice data transmitted from the instructor terminal (20) to the user terminal (10). Through this exchange of voice data, the user and the instructor can communicate with each other.

[0064] Furthermore, the data transmission management unit (110) may transmit voice data and video data transmitted from the user terminal (10) to the instructor terminal (20), and may also transmit voice data and video data transmitted from the instructor terminal (20) to the user terminal (10). Through this exchange of voice data and video data, the user and the instructor can conduct a class via video call. The instructor's class can be conducted for a predetermined period of time. For example, a 1-hour class, a 2-hour class, etc., are possible.

[0065] The learning data storage unit (140) can store voice data and video data of non-face-to-face learning as learning data. The learning data can be played by the user, and after the non-face-to-face learning is finished, the learning data display unit (190) can transmit the learning data to the user terminal (10) at the request of the user terminal (10). The learning data may be played after being downloaded to the user terminal (10), or it may be streamed.

[0066] The learning point granting unit (130) can grant points to the user account connected to the user terminal (10) when the user reviews the learning data by playing it through the user terminal (10). The learning point granting unit (130) can grant points to the user account connected to the user terminal (10) when the user reviews the learning data within a predetermined time after the non-face-to-face learning ends. For example, the user may be required to review within 6 hours after the non-face-to-face learning ends, or to review before midnight on the day the non-face-to-face learning ends.

[0067] Additionally, the online education system (100) can provide a pre-saved video lecture to the user, and the learning point awarding unit (130) can award points when the user watches the video lecture through the user terminal (10).

[0068] The user can use the points awarded by the learning point awarding unit (130) to purchase goods or use them for tuition. This will be described later, and the points awarded when reviewing learning data can strongly maintain the user's motivation to learn.

[0069] The user response section setting unit (200) receives information regarding the user response section from the instructor terminal (20) during non-face-to-face learning and can remove voice data from the user response section of the learning data. Here, the user response section is a section where the user answers the instructor's question during non-face-to-face learning.

[0070] For example, the instructor may ask, "What kind of person is your boss?" and press a button on the instructor terminal (20) to signal the start of the user response section, and press a button to signal the end of the user response section when the user's answer is finished. When the non-face-to-face learning ends, the user response sections can be accurately recorded.

[0071] The training data from which voice data has been removed from the user response section by the user response section setting unit (200) can be stored in the training data storage unit (140). Accordingly, the user can play the training data and repeat the previous answer in the user response section from which voice data has been removed, or practice other modified sentences created by the AI.

[0072] The user answer section setting unit (200) receives an answer sentence to be matched to the user answer section from the instructor terminal (20), and the answer sentence is stored in the learning data so that it can be selectively displayed as a subtitle in the user answer section, and the learning data display unit (190) can display or hide the answer sentence on the screen of the user terminal (10) by the selection of the user who is reviewing the learning data through the user terminal (10).

[0073] For example, after the non-face-to-face learning ends, the instructor can input various expressions that are more refined than the original user response into the user response section, and these expressions can be displayed like subtitles on the screen of the user terminal (10) when the user response section is played. The user can set these expressions to be displayed like subtitles on the screen of the user terminal (10) or not to be displayed on the screen of the user terminal (10).

[0074] The character conversion unit (210) can generate character data corresponding to voice data transmitted by the user through the user terminal (10). For example, when a user response section is played, the user may speak a suitable response into the user terminal (10), and the voice data input into the user terminal (10) in this way can be converted into characters corresponding to the voice using a known character conversion program.

[0075] The learning judgment unit (220) can determine whether the answer sentence and the sentence of the text data match. That is, it determines whether the content of the answer sentence entered by the instructor matches the content of the voice data converted into text.

[0076] If the learning judgment unit (220) determines that the answer sentence and the sentence of the text data match, the learning point granting unit (130) can grant points to the user account. Multiple answer sentences may be pre-entered, and if any one of them matches the sentence of the text data, points can be granted to the user account.

[0077] For example, if a user fails to answer an instructor's question during a 60-minute 1:1 English conversation lesson but learns the correct answer or various variations by reviewing the saved lesson footage, such memory lasts for a considerable time, and through this process, the user's English proficiency can be enhanced. Furthermore, memory retention can be maximized by encouraging such review within a set time (e.g., midnight of the same day). Points can only be earned by reviewing before midnight on the day of the lesson.

[0078] The point exchange unit (150) can convert points assigned to a user account into monetary value by applying a predetermined exchange rate. When converting points within the system into cash, the points can be converted into cash by multiplying them by an exchange rate, which is the ratio for cash conversion. For example, 100 points can be converted into a monetary value of 10 won by applying an exchange rate of 0.1. This exchange rate may be changed by the system operator based on a predetermined standard. During the event period, it may be possible to change the exchange rate from 0.1 to 0.5. Participation in short-term classes can be increased through such changes in the exchange rate.

[0079] In addition, when paying for the learning program, payment can be made using circulating currency and / or points converted to the value of the aforementioned currency. That is, users can use points like currency to pay for class tuition. It may be possible to use points for all or part of the tuition fee.

[0080] In addition, payment for goods can be made using circulating currency and / or points converted to the value of the said currency. That is, users can use points like currency to purchase goods. It may be possible to use points for all or part of the price of the purchased goods.

[0081] The system of the present invention can form an online community in which users participate, and can induce users to stay in the online community, thereby enabling users to continue staying on the platform provided by the system of the present invention.

[0082] The system of the present invention provides rewards based on the amount of learning by the user of the user terminal, and to this end, it may transmit coupons to the user terminal. The coupons may function to exchange for goods provided by the system or be used like currency, and the coupon information may display service details and an identifier image (e.g., QR code) that authenticates that the coupon was issued by the system.

[0083] The coupon transmission unit (180) can generate an identifier image containing the content of the monetary value converted by applying a predetermined exchange rate to the points assigned to the user account, and transmit the coupon image with the identifier image displayed to the user terminal (10). When the identifier image is scanned at an offline store and the converted monetary value is confirmed, it can be used when paying for goods.

[0084] The system of the present invention may further include an advertisement display unit (230).

[0085] The data transmission management unit (110) can conduct non-face-to-face learning by transmitting voice data transmitted from the user terminal (10) to the instructor terminal (20) and transmitting voice data transmitted from the instructor terminal (20) to the user terminal (10).

For example, a 1-hour class, a 2-hour class, etc., are possible.

[0087] The learning data storage unit (140) can store voice data and video data of non-face-to-face learning as learning data. The learning data can be played by the user, and after the non-face-to-face learning is finished, the learning data display unit (190) can transmit the learning data to the user terminal (10) at the request of the user terminal (10). The voice data and video data of the learning data can be output through the user terminal (10). The learning data may be played after being downloaded to the user terminal (10), or it may be streamed.

[0088] The advertisement display unit (230) can display an advertisement video in a portion of the screen of the user terminal (10) when the user reviews the learning data through the user terminal (10). The advertisement video may be an image or a video. It is preferable for the advertisement video to be located at the bottom or top of the screen.

[0089] The learning point granting unit (130) can grant points to the user account connected to the user terminal (10) when the user watches an advertisement video through the user terminal (10). Points can be granted to the user simply by being exposed to the advertisement, even if the user does not actively watch the advertisement. Therefore, the user is compelled to learn the learning data in which the advertisement video is displayed in order to receive points.

[0090] The learning point granting unit (130) may grant additional points to the user account when the user clicks on an advertisement video and watches the advertisement data associated with the advertisement video. Additional points are granted for the user's active viewing behavior. Since such active viewing behavior means that the advertising effect has increased for the advertiser, additional advertising fees may be paid to the system, and a portion of these advertising fees may be distributed to the user.

[0091] The advertisement display unit (230) can display an advertisement video in a part of the screen of the user terminal (10) and a part of the screen of the instructor terminal (10) even during non-face-to-face learning.

[0092] The data transmission management unit (110) transmits voice data and video data transmitted from the user terminal (10) to the instructor terminal (20), and may also transmit voice data and video data transmitted from the instructor terminal (20) to the user terminal (10), and through this exchange of voice data and video data, the user and the instructor can conduct a class via video call.

[0093] The advertisement display unit (230) can display an advertisement video at the top or bottom of the screen of the user terminal (10) and the instructor terminal (10).

[0094] The learning point granting unit (130) can grant points to the user account connected to the user terminal (10) when the user watches an advertisement video through the user terminal (10). Points can be granted to the user simply by being exposed to the advertisement, even if the user does not actively watch the advertisement. Therefore, the user is compelled to engage in non-face-to-face learning where the advertisement video is displayed in order to receive points.

[0095] The advertisement displayed on the user terminal (10) and the advertisement displayed on the instructor terminal (20) may be the same advertisement. Additionally, the advertisement displayed on the user terminal (10) and the advertisement displayed on the instructor terminal (20) may be advertisements related to common target information among the target information obtained from the user terminal (10) and the target information obtained from the instructor terminal (20), and this may be selected and provided by AI. Here, target information refers to information about sites searched or visited by the user and the instructor through the user terminal (10) and the instructor terminal (20), and the searched and visited sites may be classified by category according to predetermined category classification criteria.

[0096] When the same advertisement video is displayed on the screens of the user terminal (10) and the instructor terminal (20) during non-face-to-face learning, the user and the instructor can use the advertisement displayed on their respective screens as a topic of conversation, thereby preventing the exhaustion of conversation topics during non-face-to-face learning and preventing the conversation between the user and the instructor from being interrupted, thus allowing the given learning time to be used efficiently.

[0097] When the advertisement display unit (230) receives an advertisement change signal from either the user terminal (10) or the instructor terminal (20), it can change the advertisement displayed on the screen to a different advertisement. That is, since the advertisement video performs the function of being used as a topic of conversation between the user and the instructor, the user or the instructor can change the advertisement video by transmitting an advertisement change signal until an advertisement video with content that can smoothly lead the conversation appears.

[0098] Meanwhile, the online education system (100) can provide a pre-saved video lecture to the user, and the learning point awarding unit (130) can award points when the user watches the video lecture through the user terminal (10).

[0099] Points can be accumulated in a user account, and the point exchange unit (150) can convert the points assigned to the user account into monetary value by applying a predetermined exchange rate. When converting points within the system into cash, the points can be converted into cash by multiplying them by an exchange rate, which is the ratio for cash conversion. For example, 100 points can be converted into a monetary value of 10 won by applying an exchange rate of 0.1. This exchange rate may be changed by the system operator based on a predetermined standard. During the event period, it may be possible to change the exchange rate from 0.1 to 0.5. Participation in short-term classes can be increased through such changes in the exchange rate.

[0100] In addition, when paying for the learning program, payment can be made using circulating currency and / or points converted to the value of the aforementioned currency. That is, users can use points like currency to pay for class tuition. It may be possible to use points for all or part of the tuition fee.

[0101] In addition, payment for goods can be made using circulating currency and / or points converted to the value of the said currency. That is, users can use points like currency to purchase goods. It may be possible to use points for all or part of the price of the purchased goods.

[0102] The system of the present invention can form an online community in which users participate, and can induce users to stay in the online community, thereby enabling users to continue staying on the platform provided by the system of the present invention.

[0103] The system of the present invention provides compensation based on the amount of advertisement exposure of the user of the user terminal, and to this end, a coupon can be transmitted to the user terminal (10). The coupon can function to exchange for goods provided by the system or can be used like currency, and the coupon information may display service details and an identifier image (e.g., QR code) that authenticates that the coupon was issued by the system.

[0104] The coupon transmission unit (180) can generate an identifier image containing the content of the monetary value converted by applying a predetermined exchange rate to the points assigned to the user account, and transmit the coupon image with the identifier image displayed to the user terminal (10). When the identifier image is scanned at an offline store and the converted monetary value is confirmed, it can be used when paying for goods.

[0105] The system of the present invention may further include a login management unit (240) that receives user login information from a user terminal (10), compares the user login information with pre-registered user login confirmation information, and determines whether to allow the user's login.

[0106] Login information may include a user ID, sound input data, color input data, etc. User login verification information is information registered by the user in advance and serves as standard information for determining whether it is identical to the login information, and may include a user ID, sound registration data, color registration data, etc.

[0107] The login management unit (240) displays eight touch areas randomly arranged on the screen of the user terminal (10), and can assign eight different notes constituting one octave to each of the touch areas. The eight notes may consist of Do, Re, Mi, Fa, Sol, Si, and Do, and the touch areas may have the shape of a triangle, a square, or a circle, and it is preferable that the eight touch areas have the same size.

[0108] After the user enters an ID through the user terminal (10), the login management unit (240) displays eight touch areas randomly arranged on the screen of the user terminal (10), and when the user touches any one of the touch areas through the user terminal (10), the sound assigned to the touched touch area is output through the user terminal (10), and at the same time, a plurality of different colors can start to be displayed in a random order at a predetermined display time interval in the touched touch area.

[0109] The login management unit (240) can perform a sound transmission step in which, when a user touches a touch area once and then touches the touch area twice in succession after a predetermined pause time has passed, sound data corresponding to the sound assigned to the touch area is transmitted from the user terminal (10), and a color transmission step in which color data corresponding to the color displayed in the touch area is transmitted from the user terminal (10) when the two consecutive touches occur.

[0110] The login management unit (240) can perform an input data formation step in which it sequentially connects sound data transmitted from the user terminal (10) through the sound transmission step to form sound input data, and sequentially connects color data transmitted from the user terminal (10) through the color transmission step to form color input data.

[0111] The login management unit (240) can perform a sound data verification step to check whether the sound registration data included in the user login verification information pre-registered by the user matches the sound input data, and can perform a color data verification step to check whether the color registration data included in the user login verification information pre-registered by the user matches the color input data.

[0112] The login management unit (240) can allow the user to log in if the sound registration data and sound input data match in the sound data verification step, and the color registration data and color input data match in the color data verification step.

[0113] The login process through the login management unit (240) is explained as an example.

[0114] The user may apply to the login management unit (240) via the user terminal (10) to pre-register "Re-Sol-Mi-Fa-Si" as sound registration data, and the login management unit (240) sequentially stores sound data corresponding to the first note "Re," sound data corresponding to the second note "Sol," sound data corresponding to the third note "Mi," sound data corresponding to the fourth note "Fa," and sound data corresponding to the fifth note "Si" as sound registration data in the login management unit (240). Here, the sound data is data that matches the corresponding sound, which can be arbitrarily set, and may be data having a binary value, text, image, etc.

[0115] Additionally, the user can pre-register colors for each note of "Re-Sol-Mi-Fa-Si". The user can register white for "Re", white for "Sol", white for "Mi", green for "Fa", and yellow for "Si", and the login management unit (240) sequentially stores color data corresponding to white, color data corresponding to white, color data corresponding to white, color data corresponding to green, and color data corresponding to yellow as color registration data in the login management unit (240). Here, the color data is data that matches the corresponding color, can be arbitrarily set, and may be data having binary values, text, images, etc.

[0116] After the user enters an ID through the user terminal (10), the login management unit (240) displays eight touch areas arranged randomly on the screen of the user terminal (10).

[0117] When the user touches the first touch area once through the user terminal (10), multiple different colors begin to be displayed in a random order at 4-second intervals in the first touch area, and the "Mi" sound assigned to the first touch area is output through the user terminal (10). The user confirms that a sound different from "Re" registered as the first sound is being output, and touches the second touch area once. When the user confirms that the "Re" sound assigned to the second touch area is being output through the user terminal (10), after a pause of 3 seconds, the user looks at the colors being displayed at 4-second intervals in the second touch area, and when the white color registered as the first sound "Re" is displayed, the user touches the second touch area twice consecutively. Accordingly, the login management unit (240) receives sound data corresponding to the sound assigned to the second touch area and color data corresponding to the color that was touched twice consecutively in the second touch area from the user terminal (10).

[0118] The login management unit (240) sequentially connects the transmitted sound data and color data to form sound input data and color input data, compares the sound registration data and sound input data, and compares the color registration data and color input data to determine whether they match.

[0119] Login through the login management unit (240) is a login method determined by the user's hearing and sight, and even if someone is watching from the side, the login password cannot be known if the user proceeds while listening to the sound through earphones. In addition, even if the user only hears the sound from the surroundings, the login password cannot be known if the color associated with the sound is not known. Accordingly, the user can log in to various systems safely and conveniently with a single login information.
