Adaptive Hint Display Control for Learner Progress Guidance
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing learning devices lack the ability to provide appropriate hints based on the progress status of a user's answer to questions, potentially disrupting the user's concentration and learning process.
Innovation Solution
A learning support system that includes a server device and terminal devices connected via a network, utilizing a hint table to generate advice information based on the progress status of a learner's answer, providing tailored hints through a display control apparatus.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If hints are provided to learners, then learning support is improved, but learner concentration may be disrupted
Solution Approach 1:
The hint display control dynamically adjusts whether to display hints based on the learner's current state. The system determines display prohibition when the learner is actively inputting answers, and allows display when the learner is not inputting, making the hint display behavior adaptive and dynamic rather than static
Solution Approach 2:
The system continuously monitors the learner's input state and uses this feedback to control hint display. By detecting whether the learner is currently inputting an answer, the system adjusts its behavior in real-time, creating a closed-loop control system that responds to learner actions
2Reliability
If comprehensive advice information is provided, then learning ability is improved, but information overload occurs
Solution Approach 1:
The system extracts and displays only the specific hint information needed at the current moment, rather than showing all available advice information. By selectively taking out only the relevant hint based on the learner's progress status, the system avoids information overload while maintaining learning support quality
Solution Approach 2:
The hint display control applies different display rules to different situations based on learner state. Instead of uniformly displaying all hints, the system provides localized, context-appropriate hints that match the learner's current progress, making the information quality appropriate for each specific learning moment

AI summary
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a computer program readable by a computer of a display control apparatus is shown. The program executed by the computer causes the display control apparatus to: based on a progress status of an input of an answer to a question by a learner with relation to a complete answer to the question, generate data for displaying on a display advice information used for solving the question.
