Abstract
The purpose of this study is to develop an artificial-intelligence STEAM program for real-time interactive online class for elementary science and to analyze its effect on science academic achievement and creative problem-solving ability. The applied unit was 'Life of plant', a 4th grade science subject with high difficulty in teaching and learning mainly by memorization. The theme of the program is 'Creating a doctor of plant artificial intelligence chatbot'. The results of this study were as follows: The program developed in this study had a positive effect on elementary school students' science academic achievement and creative problem-solving ability. Therefore, the artificial intelligence STEAM program for elementary science interactive online class is effective in improving students' scientific academic achievement and creative problem-solving ability, and further research on artificial intelligence STEAM education theory, method, and practice is required.
