Abstract
The 21st century computer education is very important for the future generations in the knowledge and information society. Therefore, developed countries that are the US, UK, and Germany, it is very important to find out how the computer education. In the US, the NETS and ACM K12 curriculum are investigated, In the UK and Germany national level computer curriculums are looked out. USA, UK, and Germany's curriculum includes computer science, information technology, digital literacy, and computer curriculum is independent, at least in the elementary schools computer education can be seen that more than 17 hours. After the revised national curriculum at 2015 is amended in korea. compared to the developed countries to derive the problems of the Korean revised national curriculum 2015. The revised 2015 Korean elementary school computer education, has no identity because it is not operated as an independent subject. Software will include education only. A very limited time of 17 hours may be a problem.
