A SELF-LEARNING SUPPORT SYSTEM FOR PUPILS BASED ON A FUZZY SCHEME

When teachers give homework for self-learning to pupils belonging to a junior high school or an elementary school, they should adjust the level of questions depending on each pupil's capability. However, in a school with much number of pupils, it is difficult that one teacher takes all pupils' capability levels into consideration, and makes the homework which is suitable for the level of each pupil's capability. In this paper, a self-learning support system for pupils in an elementary course is proposed. The aim of this study is development of the support systems for fundamental education such as calculation ability, vocabulary power, etc. When making the homework for self-learning, the proposed system based on a fuzzy scheme supports the choice of a suitable question for the level of each pupil's capability. Furthermore, by presuming each pupil's learning level and the weak point, the proposed system adjusts the level of the question for homework. As one of the simplest examples, the proposed system for arthmetic training is realized by using a Visual Basic. The validity of the proposed system is confirmed through experiments. The experiments show that the proposed system can provide appropriate questions depending on the level of each pupil's capability.
