  • Patent number: 6341959
    Abstract: This specification discloses a method and system for learning a language. This invention takes the language data selected by a learner or a default test base as the learning content and improves the learner's language ability through tests about the learning content. The learner is allowed to arbitrarily update the language data stored in a learning database. The system according to the present invention contains a grammar analysis engine. This engine analyzes the grammar of the language data in the learning database according to the grammatical rules collected and stored in a language grammar database, converts the language data in the learning database into test problems according to the problem models stored in a problem model database, and finally performs language tests using the grammar analysis processor and provides the test results (such as error analysis and explanation).

  • Patent number: 6321215
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an examining method of a computer-aid test for understanding the learning performance of an examinee. The examining method of the invention gives more accurate and helpful examination and learning guidance to an examinee according to the examinee's answer record of a computer aided test. In the conventional computer-aid test, the examination of a test is given according to only the ratio of the examinee's correct answers. However, the learning performance of an examinee relates to not only the ratio of the examinee's correct answers but also the sequence of the examinee's answers of testing questions. Hence, the present invention provides a new examination method to give a more suitable guidance to examinees in computer-aid tests.
