The purposes of this study were to develop a learner activity-centered science class program, apply it to the fourth-grade elementary students, and analyze its effects on their attitude towards science, academic achievement, and concept sustainability. To this end, the content of the fourth-grade elementary subject related to 'volcanoes and earthquakes' was reorganized through 12 periods, and the class was divided into two groups. Then, general science class was applied to the comparative group, and the learner activity-centered science class program including writing, making, and expressing was applied to the experimental group. In order to compare the two groups regarding attitude towards science, academic achievement, and concept sustainability before and after the application, mind map data was collected and analyzed based on mind map grading criteria. As a result of the post-test, the two groups showed statistically significant differences in all the sub-factors of attitude towards science, that is, recognition, ability, value, and interest sustainability, especially in interest sustainability. As for academic achievement, as a result of the post-achievement test, the experimental group had higher average scores than the comparative group, and it also showed improved scores compared to the pre-achievement test results. In addition, as a result of the post-achievement test, both the two groups showed statistically significant results. In the concept sustainability test after the post-achievement test, the experimental group had higher average scores than the comparative group in the areas of center circle, branches, and expression, which were the evaluation criteria for the mind map analysis, and the two groups showed statistically significant differences in the areas of center circle and expression, except for branches. In conclusion, learner activity-centered science class turned out to be effective on students' attitude towards science, academic achievement, and concept sustainability. If the learner activity-centered science class program is actively introduced and used in actual educational sites, it is expected to contribute to improving related classes.

As artificial intelligence(AI) education becomes essential in elementary schools with the revised 2022 curriculum, it is necessary to develop an AI curriculum for elementary school students. In this study, I developed the AI content framework to cultivate AI literacy of elementary school students. AI education areas were largely divided into AI understanding and AI development, and detailed areas were divided into eight categories: using of AI, impact of AI, AI ethics, recognition of AI, data expression, data exploring, learning of AI, and prediction of AI. In addition, twice expert Delphi surveys were conducted to verify the validity of the subject elements and achievement standards for each area. The final draft was finalized after reflecting expert opinions on the AI education content framework. In order for AI education to be expanded in elementary schools in the future, continuous research is needed, such as developing textbooks and teaching tools according based on the AI framework proposed in this study, securing the lesson hours to apply them to schools, and correcting and supplementing the problems of them.

As the 4th industrial revolution has progressed in recent years, the importance of robot education in elementary school education is increasing. In this paper, I suggested robot education framework to consider conceptual understanding and learning activities based on the 2014, 2015 KAIE software education standard curriculum for elementary school. The framework is reconstructed the 7 stages, In order to generalize the standardized model of the software curriculum, the achievement criteria should be prepared according to the content system of the curriculum considering the conceptual understanding and learning activities proposed in this paper, and if the educational contents are developed and utilized, it is expected to contribute to the activation of robot education in addition to elementary school software education.

Lately, the importance of robot education is rising in elementary schools, because of STAEM education. In this study, robot and convergence activity curriculum in software education was developed to robot education for elementary school. We suggested robot education framework based on the Rainbow system, which is repeatable and progressive. The framework is divided into 7 steps, 14 criteria. So, their students can be promoted to the higher level when they complete the lower level, regardless of their grade. It is necessary for robot education in elementary schools to develop the contents and programs according to suggested curriculum.

2015 Software Education Guidelines aim to foster the capacity to solve the problem by extending the learners ICT literacy. However, this guidance does not include ICT literacy education content. This study develop a model curriculum on information ethics and creation tools for elementary school students. And 7 levels of learning contents and achievements on information ethics and creation tools are proposed in this study.

본 논문에서는 초등학생 학습자의 기초 알고리즘 개념 습득을 위한 Think-aloud 기법 적용 프로그램을 제안한다. 이 프로그램은 추상적인 대상에 대한 논리적 사고가 어려운 초등 학습자들에게 알고리즘 개념 및 표현 방법을 구체적으로 가르칠 수 있는 기법인 Think-aloud 기법을 활용한다. 연구는 ADDIE 모형에 따라 이루어졌으며, 개발된 프로그램의 내용으로는 교육과정의 성취기준에서 다루고 있는 세 가지 구조(순차, 반복, 선택)를 약간의 변형을 거쳐 다루었다. 또한 종합 연습을 통해 다양한 교과와 실제 생활이 알고리즘과 관련지을 수 있음을 알게 하였다. 후속 연구로는 개발된 프로그램의 검증 및 수정과 실제 현장에의 적용, 프로그램에 대한 전체적 평가 및 최종 수정이 이루어질 것이다.

최근 IT 시장에서는 빅 데이터가 새로운 패러다임으로 주목받으면서 모든 분야에서 빅 데이터를 활용하기 위해 많은 노력을 기울이고 있다. 빅 데이터를 활용한 스마트교육에서는 학생들의 모든 학습활동 자료가 쉽게 수집될 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 모든 학생의 자료 또한 수집이 가능하다. 빅 데이터를 통한 학습자 맞춤형 교육은 현재 진행되는 스마트 교육의 진정한 효과로써 나타날 수 있을 것으로 여겨진다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 학습자의 학업 성취도 향상의 요인인 학습 내용에 대한 관심과 흥미를 기준으로 분석한 빅 데이터를 활용하는 개인 맞춤형 교육 시스템을 설계하였다.

2022 개정 교육과정에서 정보과 융합 선택 과목인 소프트웨어와 생활이 신설되었다. 교과의 '가치를 창출하는 소프트웨어' 단원은 소프트웨어 스타트업의 프로젝트 수행 과정에 대한 이해를 바탕으로 소프트웨어 구현능력을 성취 기준으로 제시하고 있다. 그러나, 고등학생 대상 소프트웨어 스타트업 교육 방법에 대한 국내연구가 거의 없어 교과용 도서 개발에 어려움을 주고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 2022 개정 교육과정과 소프트웨어 스타트업 교육에 대한 국외 연구를 분석하여 고등학생 대상 소프트웨어 스타트업 교육의 방향을 제시하였다. 본 연구에서 제시된 내용은 소프트웨어와 생활 교과용 도서를 개발하는 데 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다.

In this study, we present an assessment model for the 'Information Society and Computer' subject of the 7th National High School Curriculum. The Assessment model is developed to improve the quality of the curriculum by considering both of the objective of the National Curriculum and the property of the subject. To develop the assessment model, we analyzed textbooks used in most schools, developed achievement standards, classified assessment areas and standards. Adequacy and potential practice of the assessment model is also reviewed and evaluated by subject experts.
