In this study, it developed and applied a biomimicry robot education program based on technology education, and to examine its effects. To do this, We were developed a biomimetic robot education program and was applied to gifted education in the technology fields to examine changes of the effects along with satisfaction. The results are as follow: First, the biomimicry robot education program conducted over 15 hours in total, comprised of technological problem solving steps. Second, satisfaction as a quantitative research of this program was higher than average, and as a qualitative research also showed positive satisfaction. Third, the changes in the propensity for technological problem solving and attitudes toward robots were statistically significant after participation in the program.

The conventional educational robots, which are commonly industrial robots or toy robots, use text-based programming to teach the students. Therefore, students have difficulty in studying robotics due to the difficulties of text based language. The developed robot in this study have a camera, which have the color tracking function, and it has various sensors and actuators. It supports the open hardware and uses graphic language based programming. The developed educational robot is programmed by Scratch, which uses graphic modular language. We also present a curriculum, which is based upon the developed robot and Scratch. We applied the robot and curriculum to the primary school students. We obtained satisfactory results comparing it with the conventional robot education. Furthermore, the imagination and execution ability of students showed enhancement in learning robotics. Thus, this fact means the validity and effectiveness of the proposed approach.

본 연구는 학습자의 인지발달 단계에 적합한 프로그래밍 언어를 활용하여 모든 학문의 기초 인지 능력인 학습자의 정보과학적 사고 능력을 향상에 미치는 효과를 검증하는 실험연구이다. 과중한 인지적 부담, 문법 위주 등 기존 프로그래밍 학습의 문제점을 보완하고자 등장한 교육용 로봇을 이용하여 실생활 문제해결의 정보과학적 사고능력 향상을 위한 텍스트기반 프로그래밍 언어(TPL)와 비주얼기반의 프로그래밍 언어(VPL) 중 인문계 고등학생의 인지발달 단계에 적합한 프로그래밍 언어에 대한 효과성을 분석하였다. 교육용 로봇 및 로봇 프로그래밍 언어에 대한 선행 연구를 통해 NXT Robot Educator 교육내용을 분석하고 각 단계에 적절한 실생활 과제를 추출하여 로봇 교육용 프로그램을 개발하고 적용하였다. 이 연구는 프로그래밍을 경험이 없는 인문계 고등학교 학생 집단을 선정하여 TPL과 VPL을 활용한 로봇 프로그래밍 수업을 20차시 실시한 후 두 집단 간의 정보과학적 사고능력 향상의 차이를 검증하였다.

C programming is a main programming for the Educational Robot Arm which is based on AVR ATmega128. The development environment is not integrated, so it is complex and difficult to study for middle or high school students who want to learn programming and control the educational robot arm. Furthermore, there is no debug and testing environment support. This paper presents a Java-based development platform for the educational robot arm. This platform includes: an up-to-date tiny Java Virtual Machine (NanoVM) for the educational robot arm; An Eclipse based Java integrated development environment as an Eclipse plug-in; a 3D simulator on the PCs to support testing and debugging programs without real robots. The Java programming environment makes development for educational robot arm easier for students.

In this paper, to instruct elementary programming concepts based on flowchart programming for elementary school students, we proposed sensor-based elementary robot programming PBL problems using line-tracer robots. Proposed PBL problems are designed to have various correct-answer algorithms. For this purpose, we present PBL-based robot programming instruction steps. Through applying the proposed sensor-based PBL problems using line-tracer robots, experimental results are analyzed in views of the problem-solving ability and suitability of allocating degrees of difficulties to the proposed elementary robot programming problems.

Elementary school students should have many opportunities to find their abilities and talents. However, informatics education in Korea does not target the entire elementary school students, opportunities for informatics education are given only to some students. Unlike possibilities to find mathematics gifted students and science gifted students, opportunities to find informatics gifted students are very limited. This study aims to solve current problems through a robot education program based on SEM(Schoolwide Enrichment Model). Using modified curriculum and school enrichment cluster, robot programming education is implemented at the pilot school. The result shows that robot education program based on SEM improved creative potentials of elementary school students.

In robotics classes, various types of materials about robotics are still needed for helping students to understand concepts easily, and it is difficult for all students to perform actual experiments because of the lack of the real robots. In order to solve these problems, this paper develops a web-based distance learning system for robotics, which consists of multimedia content sand a 3-dimensional robot simulator. Students can easily get multimedia contents and understand concepts about robots. Also, they can use a 3-dimensional robot simulator to Perform virtual robot experiments and connection experiments with real robots.

로봇의 중요성이 강조됨에 따라 2019년부터 초등 실과 교과에 로봇 교육이 포함된다. 그러나 일부 초등학교에서 현행되고 있는 로봇 교육은 학습자가 완성된 형태의 로봇을 조작하는 데 그친다는 점에서 구성주의 학습원리에 어긋난다. 구성주의 학습원리에 따르면 학습자는 각자에게 의미 있는 독창적인 모델을 중심으로 자신만의 세계를 만들고 그 속에서 지식을 구성해 나가야만 진정한 학습이 일어난다고 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 구성주의 학습원리에 기반한 초등 로봇 교육의 도구로서 WeDo 2.0을 소개하고 로봇 교육 도구로서 WeDo 2.0이 갖는 활용가능성을 탐색하였다. WeDo 2.0은 학습자에게 첫째, 자발적 학습환경, 둘째, 창의적 학습환경, 셋째, 체계적 학습환경, 넷째, 통합적 학습환경, 다섯째, 구성주의 학습환경을 제공한다. 이에 따라 향후 초등 로봇 교육에서 WeDo 2.0을 활용한 구체적인 교육 프로그램의 개발 및 적용이 필요하다.

The aim of software education is to increase students' Computational Thinking(CT) skills that they can compose problems and provide solutions which can be carried out effectively by information-processing systems. Furthermore, if problem solving situations can provide students with meaningful problem solving opportunities in authentic social contexts, then software education would be more valuable. This study pursued educational robot-based SW convergence education where 4th grade primary students have access to tangible outputs and can engage in authentic problem solving situations working with peers by using robots and programming. In addition, this study investigated the effectiveness of the classes in terms of computational thinking skills and social capabilities(collaborative skills and communication skills). The current study provides educational robot-based SW convergence education cases of a primary school and discusses the effectiveness of the classes in terms of students' computational thinking skills and social capabilities.
