Outline of Final Research Achievements

We have developed a calculation question training system that features the extraction of questions adapted to the student's ability from a database that stores the many questions used in an employment test named SPI, which is widely used in Japan. Based on the survey of questions offered in the SPI employment examination, we decided to use 12 kinds of question presentations. So, we created 23 questions to present the types of question and performed the experimental test with university students. After the test, we compared the difficulty between each question pair based on the rules we created. Based on the result, we developed a prototype for a calculation question training system for the students to study the SPI questions. We believe that students will acquire the academic ability to respond flexibly to questions with various presentations by completing question exercises using our system.
