Abstract

Computer and Information Literacy(CIL) is one of Key Competences in 21st century. Many countries, including Korea, have adopted related contents in their national curriculum for conducting software education. With this movement, many book-type instruction materials for software education have been developed in Korea. However, it is scarce to find researches that evaluate the instruction materials from the perspective of CIL. In this study, we selected 4 instruction materials which were distributed by government with 'SW centered society' web site as well as were developed to teach physical computing for elementary students. Also, we analyzed if they can foster students' CIL. First of all, the evaluation framework was developed based on 'The Manual for Authorized and Approved Textbook' and 'The 2018 ICILS(International Computer and Information Literacy Study) Assessment Framework'. Then, 12 school teachers who have professional insight of software education evaluated the 4 instruction materials with the framework. Averaging the score given by evaluators, we determined that which instruction materials were superior or not. Finally, we figured out the characteristics of superior and inferior instructional materials. Based on the results of this study, we suggested implications for developing instruction materials for physical computing education to build students' CIL.

컴퓨터 정보 리터러시는 21C를 살아가는 학생들에게 길러주어야 할 주요 핵심 역량 중 하나이다. 미국, 영국 등 세계 여러 나라는 학생들의 컴퓨터 정보 리터러시를 신장시키기 위하여 소프트웨어 교육 내용을 교육과정에 포함시키고 있다. 우리나라도 2015 개정 교육과정에서 소프트웨어 교육을 강조하였다. 위와 같은 교육적 변화에 대처하기 위해 많은 책자 형태의 소프트웨어 교육 교재들이 개발되고 있다. 하지만 이러한 교재들이 컴퓨터 정보 리터러시를 신장시키기에 적합한지 알아보는 연구는 아직 미흡하다. 본 연구에서는 국가 기관의 주도로 온라인 상에 보급된 네 권의 소프트웨어 교육 교재가 컴퓨터 정보 리터러시를 신장시키기에 적합한 지 평가하였다. 연구의 대상은 초등학생에게 피지컬 컴퓨팅을 지도하기 위한 교재로 한정하였다. 우선, 교육부에서 제공한 '검 인정 교과서 평가 기준'과 '2018 ICILS 평가 틀'을 참고하여 교재 평가 기준을 개발하였다. 다음으로 소프트웨어 교육에 전문성을 갖춘 12명의 현장 교사를 선정하였고, 개발된 평가 틀을 이용하여 교재 평가를 실시하였다. 평가가 끝난 후, 평가 위원들이 매긴 점수를 평균 내어 3.5 이상을 우수한 교재로, 3.5 미만은 미흡한 교재로 구분하였다. 그리고 우수한 교재의 특징과 미흡한 교재의 특징을 추출하였다. 마지막으로 연구의 결과를 바탕으로 컴퓨터 정보 리터러시를 길러 줄 수 있는 피지컬 컴퓨팅 교육 교재 개발을 위한 시사점을 제시하였다.
