Outline of Final Research Achievements

We developed web-based metasearch engine for teaching plans in primary/secondary education. This metasearch engine has a function of crawling teaching plans data from education center in each local govement.
We proceeded the research as follows: (1)We researched disclosure status of teaching plans from each education center. (2)We analyzed handbooks of teaching plans and actual sample data of teaching plans. We discussed how to implement search engines specializing in educational plans of primary/secondary education. (3)As a result, we proposed three methods: Synonym search using thesaurus, Weighting by range of appearance position, Neighbor search of item name and item value.
