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 for structural concept learning, comprising:

a learning concept module, comprising a plurality of learning concept units operable to assess a learning concept of a user;

a concept operation module, operable to select some of the learning concept units, and define a connection relation and an order relation between the selected learning concept units; and

a concept assessment module, operable to determine whether the connection relation and the order relation between the selected learning concept units are correct.

2. The assessment system for structural concept learning of claim 1, wherein the concept operation module comprises a situation interface and a concept connection interface, and the user controls the connection relation and the order relation between the selected learning concept units in the concept connection interface according to an information of the situation interface.

3. The assessment system for structural concept learning of claim 2, further comprises a learning situation module operable 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.

4. The assessment system for structural concept learning of claim 2, wherein the concept connection interface comprises a plurality of proposition containers for containing the learning concept units and a plurality of relation operators operable to define an order of executing the proposition containers.

5. The assessment system for structural concept learning of claim 4, wherein the learning situation module further comprises a situation solution 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.

6. The assessment system for structural concept learning of claim 4, 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.

7. The assessment system for structural concept learning of claim 5, 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.

8. The assessment system for structural concept learning of claim 5, wherein the proposition containers and the relation operators are orderly turned to be visible according to an operation progress of the user in order to provide the user a hint of next learning concept.

9. The assessment system for structural concept learning of claim 5, wherein the concept connection interface is a concept map.

10. The assessment system for structural concept learning of claim 5, further comprises a learning feedback module operable to display a comparison of the concept assessment module.
