Abstract

Digital transformation is about revolutionizing the interaction between virtual and reality. The complex problems that arise in this process must be solved, and one of the methods is computing thinking. Therefore, this study aims to observe whether software education that uses unplugged as liberal education is effective in enhancing computing thinking. For this, 5 elements of computing thinking were extracted and unplugged was applied to liberal software classes, and classes were conducted. During one semester, 16 sessions of classes were conducted and computing thinking enhancement was measured through surveys. As a result, the computing thinking of the students increased overall after classes. Observation surveys showed that, among computing thinking elements, students of all academic fields felt difficulties conceptualizing abstraction elements, those of arts and physical education felt more difficulties with algorithm elements, and those of the humanities felt more difficulties with pattern recognition elements. In the future, various contents for each element should be developed by academic field to aid learner understanding.

디지털 트랜스포메이션은 가상과 현실간의 상호작용을 혁신하는 것이다. 이 과정에서 발생하는 복잡한 문제를 해결해야 하고, 그 방법 중 하나가 컴퓨팅 사고력이다. 따라서 본 연구는 대학에서 교양교육으로 언플러그드를 이용한 소프트웨어 교육이 컴퓨팅 사고력을 향상시키는데 효과가 있는지 살펴보는 것을 목표로 한다. 그 방법으로 전체 학년을 대상으로 한 교양 소프트웨어 수업에 컴퓨팅 사고 5개 요소를 추출한 후 언플러그드를 적용하여 수업을 진행하였다. 한 학기 16차시 수업을 진행하였고 설문지를 통해 컴퓨터 사고력 향상을 측정하였다. 그 결과 수업 이후 수강생의 컴퓨팅 사고력이 전반적으로 증가하였다. 관찰조사에서는 전 학문분야에서 컴퓨팅 사고력 요소 중 추상화 요소를 개념화하는데 어려움을 느꼈으며, 예·체능은 알고리즘 요소를, 인문학은 패턴인식 요소를 개념화하는데 더 어려움을 느꼈다. 향후 각 요소를 학문영역별로 다양한 내용의 콘텐츠를 개발하여 학습자에게 이해를 돕는 것이 필요하다.
