초록

이 연구의 목적은 전문가 집단을 대상으로 프로그래밍 교육에 필요한 프로그래밍 개념의 구성원을 도출하여 학습자의 개념화를 돕는데 있다. 이를 위해 변수, 연산자, 제어 구조 등의 프로그래밍 요소를 질적 연구 방법인 개념적 메타포 분석 방법을 적용하여 프로그래밍 교육 전문가 집단이 형성한 개념의 전형적 속성을 확인하고 델파이 연구 방법을 통해 타당성을 확보하였다. 이 연구의 결과로 프로그래밍 개념의 전형적 속성 17가지를 도출하였다. 이를 바탕으로 내린 결론은 프로그래밍 교육에서 학습자가 1)변수 개념은 데이터를 저장하는 방법, 이름을 정하는 방법, 변수의 주소가 갖는 의미, 값을 변하게 하는 방법, 변수의 다양한 형태, 변수가 갖는 크기의 의미 등, 2)연산자 개념은 사칙 연산 방법, 논리적인 처리 방법, 우선순위에 따른 연결 방법, 연산 기호의 의미, 비교하는 방법 등, 3)제어 구조 개념은 실행 흐름 제어 방법, 참/거짓으로 논리적 판단 방법, 실행 규칙 설정 방법, 선택적 실행 방법, 순차적 실행의 의미, 반복적 실행 방법 등을 이해하도록 교육 내용을 보다 구체적으로 설정해야 한다는 것이다.

In this paper, we propose a new educational approach to help learners form concepts by identifying the properties of programming concepts targeting a group of experts in programming education. Therefore, we confirmed the typical properties of concepts by programming education experts for programming learning elements through conceptual metaphor analysis, which is a qualitative research method, and confirmed the validity through the delphi method. As a result of this study, we identified 17 typical properties of programming concepts that learners should form in programming education. The conclusions of this study are that need to compose the educational content more specifically for the conceptualization of learners' programming as follows: 1)the concept of a variable is to understand how to store data, how to set a name, what an address has, how to change a value, various types of variables, and the meaning of the size of a variable, 2)the concept of operator is to understand how to operate the four rules, how to deal with it logically, how to connect according to priority, meaning of operation symbols, and how to compare, 3)the concept of the control structure is to understand how to control the execution flow, how to make a logical judgment, how to set an execution rule, meaning of sequential execution, and how to repeat executing.
