Graphical User Interfaces For Spanish Language Teaching
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for providing a graphical user interface (GUI) that teaches correct placement of accent marks on Spanish language words through a particular sequence of graphical elements, the method comprising:
- receiving, through a GUI presented by a computing device, a selection of a graphical word element corresponding to a word to test as part of a Spanish language teaching program;
identifying, by the computing device, a particular word set that corresponds to the word from among a plurality of word sets;
outputting, in the GUI presented by the computing device and based on the particular word set, a first graphical prompt element for the user to identify whether the word has a particular ending characteristic that corresponds to the particular word set;
receiving, through the GUI presented by the computing device, first user input comprising selection of a first graphical response element that corresponds to one of a plurality of first responses to the first prompt that are presented in the GUI;
determining, by the computing device and based on the particular word set, whether the first input correctly identifies the particular ending characteristic for the word;
outputting, in the GUI presented by the computing device and based on (i) the determination of whether the first input is correct and (ii) the particular word set, a second graphical prompt element for the user to identify whether the word has a particular stressed syllable that corresponds to the particular word set;
receiving, through the GUI presented by the computing device, second user input comprising selection of a second graphical response element that corresponds to one of a plurality of second responses to the second prompt that are presented in the GUI;
determining, by the computing device and based on the particular word set, whether the second input correctly identifies the particular stressed syllable for the word;
outputting, in the GUI presented by the computing device and based on (i) the determination of whether the second input is correct and (ii) the particular word set, a third graphical prompt element for the user to identify whether the word has an accent mark;
receiving, through the GUI presented by the computing device, third user input comprising selection of a third graphical response element that corresponds to one of a plurality of third responses to the third prompt that are presented in the GUI;
determining, by the computing device and based on the particular word set, whether the third input correctly identifies whether the word has an accent mark; and
outputting, through the GUI presented by the computing device, a results graphical element with results that identify whether the user correctly identified an accent mark for the word through the selection of the first, second, and third graphical response elements.

Abstract
In one implementation, a computer-implemented method for providing a graphical user interface (GUI) that teaches correct placement of accent marks on Spanish language words through a particular sequence of graphical elements includes receiving, through a GUI presented by a computing device, a selection of a graphical word element corresponding to a word to test as part of a Spanish language teaching program; identifying, by the computing device, a particular word set that corresponds to the word from among a plurality of word sets; and outputting, in the GUI presented by the computing device and based on the particular word set, a first graphical prompt element for the user to identify whether the word has a particular ending characteristic that corresponds to the particular word set.

13. A computing device for providing a graphical user interface (GUI) that teaches correct placement of accent marks on Spanish language words through a particular sequence of graphical elements, the computing device comprising:
-
one or more processors; one or more input devices and a display that are programmed to present a GUI; and one or more storage devices containing instructions that, when executed, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising; receiving, through the GUI, a selection of a graphical word element corresponding to a word to test as part of a Spanish language teaching program; identifying a particular word set that corresponds to the word from among a plurality of word sets; outputting, in the GUI and based on the particular word set, a first graphical prompt element for the user to identify whether the word has a particular ending characteristic that corresponds to the particular word set; receiving, through the GUI, first user input comprising selection of a first graphical response element that corresponds to one of a plurality of first responses to the first prompt that are presented in the GUI; determining, based on the particular word set, whether the first input correctly identifies the particular ending characteristic for the word; outputting, in the GUI and based on (i) the determination of whether the first input is correct and (ii) the particular word set, a second graphical prompt element for the user to identify whether the word has a particular stressed syllable that corresponds to the particular word set; receiving, through the GUI, second user input comprising selection of a second graphical response element that corresponds to one of a plurality of second responses to the second prompt that are presented in the GUI; determining, based on the particular word set, whether the second input correctly identifies the particular stressed syllable for the word; outputting, in the GUI and based on (i) the determination of whether the second input is correct and (ii) the particular word set, a third graphical prompt element for the user to identify whether the word has an accent mark; receiving, through the GUI, third user input comprising selection of a third graphical response element that corresponds to one of a plurality of third responses to the third prompt that are presented in the GUI; determining, based on the particular word set, whether the third input correctly identifies whether the word has an accent mark; and outputting, through the GUI, a results graphical element with results that identify whether the user correctly identified an accent mark for the word through the selection of the first, second, and third graphical response elements. - View Dependent Claims (14)
