## Abstract

[Problem] To provide a system for notifying a user of whether contents displayed on terminals between a plurality of users are identical and a system with which, when an input is made on one terminal in one answer section of a questionnaire, information regarding a question item corresponding to the above-described answer section is displayed on another terminal.[Solution] A system 1 is connected to a first and a second terminals 3, 5. When an object displayed on a screen of the first terminal 3 is a first object and an object corresponding to the first object displayed on a screen of the second terminal 5 is a second object, the system 1 causes one or both of the screens of the first and the second terminals 3,5 to display: one or both of an identicalness sign 11 as a display regarding that the first object and the second object are identical, and a discrepancy sign 13 as a display regarding that the first object and the second object are different.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A system (1) connected to a first terminal (3) and a second terminal (5), wherein
when an object displayed on a screen of the first terminal (3) is a first object and an object corresponding to the first object displayed on a screen of the second terminal (5) is a second object, the system (1) causes any one or both of the screen of the first terminal (3) and the screen of the second terminal (5) to display:
any one or both of an identicalness sign (11) as a sign which shows that the first object and the second object are identical, and a discrepancy sign (13) as a sign which shows that the first object and the second object are different; wherein
when the object is displayed on the screen of the second terminal (5) by a sharing instruction from the first terminal (3), the first terminal (3) displays:
an identification information regarding the second terminal (5), and
any one or both of the identicalness sign (11) and the discrepancy sign (13).

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The system (1) according to claim 1, wherein
the first object is a presentation material, a questionnaire, a photograph, an image, a moving image, or a text.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The system (1) according to claim 1, wherein
the system (1) causes any one or both of the screen of the first terminal (3) and the screen of the second terminal (5) to display both of the identicalness sign (11) and the discrepancy sign (13), and
the identicalness sign (11) and the discrepancy sign (13) have any one type or two or more types of different color, icon, figure, and displayed character.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The system (1) according to claim 1, wherein
the system (1) is connected to one or a plurality of terminals other than the first terminal (3) or the second terminal (5),
when the identicalness sign (11) is displayed on the first terminal (3), a number of terminals on which an object identical to the first object is displayed on display units and other than the first terminal (3) or a proportion of terminals on which the object identical to the first object is displayed on display units and other than the first terminal (3) is displayed, and
when the discrepancy sign (13) is displayed on the first terminal (3), a number of terminals on which the object identical to the first object is not displayed on display units or a proportion of terminals on which the object identical to the first object is not displayed on display units is displayed.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The system (1) according to claim 1, wherein
the first object is a questionnaire (24) including a plurality of question items (26) and a plurality of answer sections (28) corresponding to the plurality of question items (26), and
when the second terminal (5) receives information to one answer section (28) of the questionnaire (24), the system (1) causes the first terminal (3) to display information regarding the question item (26) corresponding to the one answer section (28).

### Claim 6

A non-transitory computer-readable medium encoded with a computer program, where when the computer program is executed, the computer program causes the computer to function as:
a system (1) connected to a first terminal (3) and a second terminal (5),
when an object displayed on a screen of the first terminal (3) is a first object and an object corresponding to the first object displayed on a screen of the second terminal (5) is a second object, the computer causes any one or both of the screen of the first terminal (3) and the screen of the second terminal (5) to display:
any one or both of an identicalness sign (11) as a display regarding that the first object and the second object are identical, and
a discrepancy sign (13) as a display regarding that the first object and the second object are different, wherein
when the object is displayed on the screen of the second terminal (5) by a sharing instruction from the first terminal (3), the first terminal (3) displays:
identification information regarding the second terminal (5), and
any one or both of the identicalness sign (11) and the discrepancy sign (13).
