The purpose of this study is to analyze the effectiveness of AI convergence education program. To this end, the "Elementary Science AI Convergence Education Program for Machine Learning" developed in previous research were taught to elementary school students in the fourth to sixth grades in eight times. The quantitative changes of each factor were analyzed by R program, and the effectiveness of education was analyzed by Pearson correlation and paired samples t-test. As a result, there is a deep correlation between "Attitude to AI technology, Scientific preference and STEAM Literacy" and technical average has improved in many factors. Therefore, AI convergence education program is meaningful in terms of education, and if AI education and AI convergence education are implemented into the primary formal education curriculum, they will have a positive effect.

The 2022 revised science curriculum aims to develop the ability to solve scientific problems arising in daily life and society based on convergent thinking stimulated through participation in research activities using artificial intelligence (AI). Therefore, we developed a science-AI convergence education program that combines the science curriculum with artificial intelligence and employed it in convergence classes for high school students. The aim of the science-AI convergence class was for students to qualitatively understand the movement of a damped pendulum and build an AI model to predict the position of the pendulum using the block coding platform KNIME. Individual in-depth interviews were conducted to understand and interpret the learners' experiences. Based on Giorgi's phenomenological research methodology, we described the learners' learning processes and changes, challenges and limitations of the class. The students collected data and built the AI model. They expected to be able to predict the surrounding phenomena based on their experimental results and perceived the convergence class positively. On the other hand, they still perceived an with the unfamiliarity of platform, difficulty in understanding the principle of AI, and limitations of the teaching method that they had to follow, as well as limitations of the course content. Based on this, we discussed the strengths and limitations of the science-AI convergence class and made suggestions for science-AI convergence education. This study is expected to provide implications for developing science-AI convergence curricula and implementing them in the field.

현대사회는 4차 산업혁명 시대가 도래하면서 초연결, 초지능, 초융합 사회로 변화되고 있다. 최근 교육부는 많은 변화가 요구되고 있는 교육분야, 교육정책 방안으로 SW(소프트웨어)교육에 AI(인공지능) 교육까지 추가되야 한다고 제안하고 2024년까지 첨단 기술을 활용한 지능형 과학실을 구축한다고 밝혔다. 이에 본 논문에서는 정부의 교육정책 방안이 원활하게 진행될 수 있고 융합 교육 분야에서 활용될 수 있는 "미래 지능형 과학실 활용을 위한 화학원소기호 이미지 기계학습 AI·SW교육 프로그램"을 제안하고자 한다.

본 연구에서는 비전공자들을 위한 디지털 교육을 위하여 노 코드 프로그램을 활용한 정보, 수학, 과학 융합교육 교양 강좌를 개발하였다. 노 코드 프로그램으로는 오렌지3 데이터 마이닝을 선정하였는데, 이는 데이터 분석, 시각화, 머신러닝 모델의 활용이 용이하다는 강점을 가지고 있다. 또한, 산업환경 변화에 대비하는 핵심 교과인 과학, 수학, 정보의 중요성과 데이터 분석과의 밀접성을 고려하여 교육 내용을 융합할 수 있도록 선정하였다. 개발된 교육 프로그램은 8인이 전문가 검토 결과 내용 타당도가 확보되었음을 확인할 수 있었다. 추후 연구에서는 이 강좌를 대학의 학부생에게 적용하여 그 효과성을 확인해 보고자 한다.

In this paper, the information education plan of the Ministry of Education and offices of education was analyzed in relation to the construction of the AI convergence education room. And based on this, an appropriate construction direction was suggested. For research, AI convergence education room construction plan, budget amount per school and etc were analyzed in the information education plan of the Ministry of Education, KERIS, KOFAC, and the plan of leading schools for AI education. Although the Ministry of Education is making various efforts to promote SW education and artificial intelligence convergence education, it is found that the number is far insufficient compared to the number of elementary, middle and high schools. Efforts to expand the information education room at the government level are continuously required, and in order to utilize the developed artificial intelligence convergence education room, it is necessary to provide abundant teaching and learning examples for the construction space model. In addition, school-level planning and execution must be followed so that the constructed space can be used appropriately, and management and maintenance plans for equipment are required.

In this paper, the degree of reflection of SW·AI elements and CT elements was investigated and analyzed for a total of 44 textbooks of Korean, social, moral, mathematics and science textbooks based on the 2015 revised curriculum. As a result of the analysis, most of the activities of data collection, data analysis, and data presentation, which are ICT elements, were not reflected, and algorithm and programming elements were not reflected among SW·AI content elements, and there were no abstraction, automation, and generalization elements among CT elements. Therefore, in order to effectively implement SW·AI convergence education in elementary school subjects, we will expand ICT utilization activities to SW·AI utilization activities. Training on the understanding of SW·AI convergence education and improvement of teaching and learning methods using SW·AI is needed for teachers. In addition, it is necessary to establish an information curriculum and secure separate class hours for substantial SW·AI education.

The goal of this study is to explore ways to restructure Convergence Elective Courses in science in preparation for the high school credit system, ahead of the 2022 revised science curriculum. This study started from the problem that the 2015 revised science curriculum has not guaranteed science subject choice for students with non-science/engineering career aptitudes. To this end, a survey was conducted by randomly sampling high schools across the country. A total of 1,738 students responded to the questionnaire of 3 science elective courses such as Science History, Life & Science, Convergence Science. In addition, in-depth interviews with 12 science teachers were conducted to examine the field operation of these three courses, which will be classified and revised as Convergence Elective subjects in the 2022 revised curriculum. According to the results of the study, high school students perceive these three courses as science literacy courses, and find these difficult to learn due to lack of personal interest, and difficulties in content itself. The reason students choose these three courses is mainly because they have aptitude for science, or these courses have connection with their desired career path. Teachers explained that students mainly choose Life & Science, and both teachers and students avoid Science History because the course content is difficult. Based on the research results, we suggested ways to restructure Convergence Electives for the 2022 revised curriculum including developing convergence electives composed of interdisciplinary convergence core concepts with high content accessibility, developing convergence electives with core concepts related to AI or advanced science, developing module-based courses, and supporting professional development of teachers who will teach interdisciplinary convergence electives.

The purpose of this study is to develop a machine learning-based AI convergence class model and class design principles that can foster data literacy in high school students, and to develop detailed guidelines accordingly. We developed a machine learning-based teaching model, design principles, and detailed guidelines through research on prior literature, and applied them to 15 students at a specialized high school in Seoul. As a result of the study, students' data literacy improved statistically significantly (p<.001), so we confirmed that the model of this study has a positive effect on improving learners' data literacy, and it is expected that it will lead to related research in the future.
