Abstract

The software education to elementary students will be conducted from 2019. One of highlights of software education is a programming experience. It requires a higher level of programming education to students that are interested in programming. This problem can be solved by the club activities. But the materials for programming education for elementary students is not much. Therefore, we developed a programming material for club activities of the elementary school. We did not develop it as a programming manual. The students can understand a problem, can design through decomposition and abstraction processes, and can write a program when they are learning with this material. As a result, we expect that they can enhance their computational thinking abilities. We proved that our material is suitable for elementary students through a demonstration class. Therefore, we expect that our development methodologies for the material for programming education will contribute to develop a material for programming education.

2019학년도부터 초등학교에서 소프트웨어 교육이 실시될 예정이다. 초등학교 소프트웨어 교육의 주된 내용 중의 하나는 학생들이 프로그래밍을 체험하는 것이다. 프로그래밍에 대하여 관심을 보이는 학생들에게는 보다 높은 수준의 프로그래밍 교육이 필요하며 동아리 활동을 통하여 시행할 수 있다. 그러나 초등학교에서의 동아리 활동을 위한 프로그래밍 교재는 많지 않다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 초등학교의 동아리 활동을 위한 프로그래밍 교재를 개발하였다. 따라 하기 형태의 매뉴얼 방식을 지양하고 학생들이 문제를 이해하고, 문제 분할 및 추상화 과정을 따라 설계하며 이를 프로그램으로 작성할 수 있도록 하여 자연스럽게 Computational Thinking 능력을 배양하도록 하였으며 시범 수업을 통하여 개발한 교재가 초등학생들에게 적절한 내용과 수준임을 입증하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서 제시하는 교재 집필 방법들이 초등학교의 소프트웨어 교육에 기여할 것으로 기대한다.
