Abstract

In this thesis, a survey was conducted on elementary school teachers about the establishment of information subjects in elementary schools. As a result, the opinion that information subjects should be newly established for ICT literacy education and SW/AI education in elementary schools was very high. In addition, if it is difficult to establish a new information subject, opinions in favor of the organization of the information subject as an autonomous subject using the discretionary time of the principal were high. In light of the results of this analysis, it is judged that it is necessary to establish a new information subject for ICT literacy education and SW/AI education in the next elementary school curriculum. However, if it is difficult to establish a new information course, it is necessary to come up with a plan that can be operated in the form of autonomous subject for students wishing to learn SW/AI. And it is judged that the number of class hours should be secured for at least 1 hour or 2 hours per week in the 3rd grade and above.

본 연구에서는 초등학교에서 정보 교과 신설의 필요성과 운영 방향을 알아보고자 초등학교 교사를 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 그 결과, 차기 초등학교 교육과정에서 ICT 소양교육 및 SW·AI 교육을 위해 정보교육의 수업 시수 확대할 필요가 있다는 의견이 매우 높게 나타났고 차기 초등학교 교육과정에서 ICT 소양교육 및 SW·AI 교육을 위해 정보교과 신설이 필요하다는 의견이 매우 높게 나타났으며, 정보 교과 신설이 어려울 경우라면 학교장 재량 시간을 활용해 자율과목으로의 편성할 필요가 있다는 의견도 매우 높게 나타났다. 이와 같은 분석 결과에 비추어볼 때 차기 초등학교 교육과정에서는 ICT 소양교육 및 SW·AI 교육을 위해 정보교과를 신설할 필요가 있으며 만약 신설이 어렵다고 하더라도 배우기를 희망하는 학생들을 위하여 자율과목 형태로 운영할 수 있는 방안을 마련할 필요가 있다. 그리고 수업시수는 3학년이상에서 적어도 주당 1시간이나 2시간 정도가 확보되어야할 것으로 판단된다.
