Abstract

An assessment system for structural concept learning, which may include a situation interface, a plurality of learning concept units and a concept connection interface. A user can select some of learning concept units according to the information of the situation interface, and use the proposition containers and the relation operators of the concept connection interface to define the connection relation and order relation between the selected learning concept units; after the connection relation and the order relation are compared with the standard situation solution, the comparison can be used to analysis and present the user'"'"'s structural knowledge learning outcome, such concept mapping.

Claims

1. An assessment system, applied to an electronic device, for structural concept learning, comprising:

an input module, and

a processor, connected to the input module and comprising;

a learning concept module, comprising a plurality of learning concept units configured;

a concept operation module, comprising a situation interface and a concept connection interface, wherein a user uses the input module to select some of the learning concept units and control the learning concept units to define a connection relation and an order relation between the selected learning concept units in the concept connection interface according to an information of the situation interface

a learning situation module, comprises a situation solution; and

a concept assessment module, configured to determine whether the connection relation and the order relation between the selected learning concept units are correct according to the situation solution; and

a learning feedback module, comprising a screen configure to display a comparison of the concept assessment module in order to assess the user'"'"'s understanding about the learning concept.

2. The assessment system for structural concept learning of claim 1, further comprises a learning situation module configured to provide at least one learning situation, and the situation interface of the concept operation module displays a learning concept for testing the user according to the learning situation.

3. The assessment system for structural concept learning of claim 1, wherein the concept connection interface comprises a plurality of proposition containers for containing the learning concept units and a plurality of relation operators configured to define an order of executing the proposition containers.

4. The assessment system for structural concept learning of claim 2, wherein the situation solution is corresponding to the learning situation, and the concept assessment module compares the situation solution with the connection relation and the order relation between the selected learning concept units contained in the proposition containers in the concept connection interface so as to determine whether the connection relation and the order relation are correct.

5. The assessment system for structural concept learning of claim 3, wherein the learning concept units comprises a physical quantity, a chemical formula, a definition of a term, a pattern, a parameter, an equation, a question or a step.

6. The assessment system for structural concept learning of claim 4, wherein the proposition containers and the relation operators are visible when the concept assessment module determines that the connection relation and the order relation between the selected learning concept units contained in the proposition containers, and the relation operators are correct.

7. The assessment system for structural concept learning of claim 4, wherein the concept connection interface is a concept map.

8. The assessment system for structural concept learning of claim 1, wherein the input module is a touch screen, a keyboard or a mouse.
