Outline of Final Research Achievements

For the proof problem-solving support system, we automated the generation of single-sentence cards by utilizing the structure of the proof, and conducted an experiment on using the system. The experiment showed that learners were able to use the system. However, there were some problems where the correct answer rate was extremely low, and in the future, a more detailed analysis of how learners get stuck will be necessary.
For the programming problem-solving support system, because we were unable to build a network between each problem, we manually inserted single-sentence cards that were not used for the answers into each problem, and conducted an experiment on using the system. The results showed that when programming in Japanese was compared to programming in C language, the correct answer rate was lower for the former.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

本研究において，「単文カードを用いた学習」が学習者にとって，学習しやすい方法であり，記述して解答する方法と同程度の思考が必要であることが分かった．しかし，単文カードの用意の仕方によって，思考の範囲が限られることも分かったことから，「単文カードを用いた学習」が普及する上での一つの注意点が本研究によって得られた．
