The purpose of this study is to develop a statistical program using data and artificial intelligence prediction models and apply it to one class in the sixth grade of elementary school to see if it is effective in improving students' statistical literacy. Based on the analysis of problems in today's elementary school statistical education, a total of 15 sessions of the program was developed to encourage elementary students to experience the entire process of statistical problem solving and to make correct predictions by incorporating data, the core in the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution into AI education. The biggest features of this program are the recognition of the importance of data, which are the key elements of artificial intelligence education, and the collection and analysis activities that take into account context using real-life data provided by public data platforms. In addition, since it consists of activities to predict the future based on data by using engineering tools such as entry and easy statistics, and creating an artificial intelligence prediction model, it is composed of a program focused on the ability to develop communication skills, information processing capabilities, and critical thinking skills. As a result of applying this program, not only did the program positively affect the statistical literacy of elementary school students, but we also observed students' interest, critical inquiry, and mathematical communication in the entire process of statistical problem solving.

오늘날 지식정보사회에서는 국가의 과학기술이 그 나라의 국가 경쟁력을 좌우하게 되기 때문에 우수한 잠재력을 가진 영재를 조기에 육성하고 교육하는 일은 매우 중요하다. 특히 요즘처럼 지식정보사회로의 전환이 급속도로 진행되고 있는 현실을 고려해 볼 때에 영재교육 중 정보과학영재교육의 중요성은 더욱 커지고 있다. 사람들은 흔히‘영재’라는 이유로 기초가 되는 부분을 소홀히 하고 넘어가는 경우가 많다. 정보과학영재를 위한 교육과정 중 기초기술소양교육도 마찬가지였다. 대부분 프로그래밍 같은 고급기술을 요하는 것만 중시하지 워드프로세서나 프리젠테이션 프로그램 활용 같은 컴퓨터 사용에 기본이 되는 것들은 간과하고 넘어가는 경우가 많았다. 하지만 기초가 단단해야 튼튼한 건물을 지을 수 있고, 뿌리가 깊어야 바람에 안 흔들리듯이 정보과학영재를 위한 교육과정 중 기초기술소양교육의 중요성은 무시할 수가 없다. 특히 컴퓨터에 대한 강한 호기심과 높은 창의력등 정보과학영재로써의 많은 것을 갖추고 있지만 단지 기초기술이 부족한 아동은 정보과학영재가 아니라고 단정지어 말 할 수가 없기 때문에 기초기술소양교육은 매우 필요한 것이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 정보과학영재교육의 필요성과 초등정보과학영재를 위한 기초기술소양교육의 필요성을 생각해 보고, 현재 일반적으로 이루어지고 있는 기초기술소양교육을 분석해 보고 단편적인 기능이 중심이 아닌 문제 해결 중심의 새로운 기초기술소양교육방안을 제시하고자 한다.

PISA (Program for International Student Assessment) 2003, the second cycle of PISA, collected data with respect to students' cross-disciplinary problem solving capabilities. Problem solving is defined as the ability to use cognitive processes to solve real cross-disciplinary problems. For the purpose of PISA 2003 assessment, three problem types were chosen: Decision Making, System Analysis and Design, and Trouble Shooting. For this paper a preliminary analysis on Korean students' responses to the PISA 2003 problem-solving items was conducted. The quantitative analysis mainly focused on the difficulties of the PISA 2003 items, while the quantitative analysis dealt with students' responses to open-ended items, which helped understand Korean students' cognitive style and reasoning processes. According to the item analysis result, Korean students had difficulty in representing their answers with pictures or graphs, and interpreting long and complex text. They also showed low achievement with relatively unfamiliar topics or tasks. The paper concluded with several suggestions on improve the quality of science education.

In recent domestic and international curriculum it is emphasized that students should acquire 'problem solving' competence as a member of knowledge information society and various programming educational methods of improving problem solving competence have been studied. But there is no difference between programming problems in related research and traditional programming courses. Most methods of solving problems are focused on acquiring specific languages rather than enhancing problem solving ability. In this research, we developed a suitable programming problems and curriculum for fostering problem solving competence and designed and developed teaching and learning contents based on PSA(Problem Solving Activities). Furthermore, we obtained meaningful results of improving learners' problem solving ability and logical thinking ability by operating curriculum with developed contents as learning materials. The results of this research are expected to be used as a reference model or basic teaching materials for developing and operating the programming teaching and learning contents or curriculum to enhance problem solving competence.

Since 2001, we have taught computer in elementary school to become the advanced country of IT in the 21C. However, people criticized that ICT education which is consisted mainly of the computer skills is not appropriate for information literacy education. In 2005, "ICT Education Guide Rev." is published. Thereafter, information literacy education has systematic frame. The experts emphasize the importance of performance assessment. Computer education can become the problem solving education if the performance assessment carried out. However, it is not successful without the good rubrics for performance assessment In this paper, we developed the rubrics for performance assessment for "presentation document writing".

국가적 차원에서 추진하는 영재교육의 목적은 개인의 자아실현과 더불어 국가와 사회에서 필요로 하는 고급 인재를 양성하는 데 있다. 특히, 정보화 시대를 이끌어 갈 정보영재의 발굴과 교육은 더욱 중요하다. 컴퓨터 교육 중 프로그래밍 교육은 컴퓨터 소양, 창의적 사고와 문제 해결력, 수학적 사고력, 추론 능력을 신장시키는 정보 교육의 중요한 분야임에도 불구하고 정보영재를 위한 체계적인 교육 내용이 확립되어 있지 않은 상태이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 초등정보영재를 위한 프로그레밍 언어교육의 필요성을 살펴보고 프로그래밍 교육을 위한 교육내용을 구성하였으며 논리력 향상 및 문제 해결력 중심의 비주얼 베이직 교육 시스템을 제안하였다. 본 연구의 특징은 첫째, 학습자에게 실제 프로그램을 작성할 수 있는 기회를 제공한다. 둘째, 학습한 이론을 실제 프로그램 작성에 응용할 수 있도록 한다. 셋째, 프로그램상의 오류 수정 활동과 제시된 예제의 다양한 해결 방법을 통해 문제 해결력과 논리적 사고력을 향상시킬 수 있는 프로그래밍 학습 시스템을 제공한다.

The article attempts to suggest s a direction of science education in terms of development of creative human resources based on discussion about scientific literacy and scientific creativity. Students are supposed to develop scientific attitude, inquiry skills, problem solving ability through science learning, and be prepared for the 21st century of rapidly developing age. The paper introduces definitions of scientific literacy and scientific creativity and discuss their meanings within science education in general as well as for the gifted. To enhance students' scientific creativity, science education should strengthen content of science related to technology, integrated science content, personal and social views, social inquiry for problem solving. In particular, science education for the gifted should emphasize students' holistic views in interpreting data, ability to connect artistic aspects to science process, intuitions to explain scientific phenomena and pursue of personal satisfaction. It may be said that science education and science education for the gifted is realized when students have opportunities to experience such elements in their science learning.

Since 2001, we have taught computer in elementary school to become the advanced country of IT in the 21C. However, it is criticized that the contents of information literacy curriculum are weak because they are not the computer science but mainly the computer skills. In 2005, "ICT Education Guide Revision" is published. Thereafter, the curriculum has systematic frame because of the addition of the contents of computer science. However, the curriculum for improving the ability of problem solving which is one of the abilities of human in the information society is somewhat defective. Therefore, in this paper I analysed the curriculums of problem solving field in elementary school level of some countries and proposed the revised curriculum of problem solving field of elementary computer science course.
