In this study, we compared the use of information and communications technology (ICT) by middle school teachers in Korea and other countries utilizing the teacher survey data of the IEA International Computer and Information Literacy Study (ICILS) 2013. The ICILS target population consisted of all students in the eighth grade. We compared Korea with Australia, the Czech Republic, Norway, and Poland, which are nations showing the highest achievements in computer and information literacy. We selected nine questions from the teacher questionnaire and divided them into the categories of computer use, use of ICT for teaching and learning, and the ICT support environment in school. In comparison to their counterparts in other countries, Korean middle school science teachers used computers frequently and also had high ICT self-efficacy. They were confident in their ability to use computers for general tasks, but not in their ability to use computers for teaching and learning. The Korean teachers also had a high percentage of utilization of presentation and graphics software. Also, the proportion of activities concerning the information provided and teacher-led tasks was high, but the proportion of activities for student collaboration or peer interaction was low. In Korea, middle school science teachers had more negative than positive views of using ICT in teaching and learning. The teachers thought that computer-related resource support and digital learning materials were insufficient and that the computer model was outdated in schools. Therefore, we propose to build an ICT infrastructure and to develop and disseminate ICT teaching and learning methods for student activities.

Because the success of SW education depends on teachers' competences and understanding, many universities of education are carrying out SW education for pre-service teachers. The purpose of this research is to analyze the current status of pre-service teachers' programming learning experiences and understanding of curriculum and educational effects related to SW education. The participants were 294 junior and senior students enrolled in a university of education. In relation to 'programming learning experiences', many responded positively in terms of interest, usefulness and willingness to learn. However, many were not satisfied with their programming experiences, felt difficulty in programming, and evaluated their programming abilities as low. For the 'understanding of SW education curriculum', many recognized the necessity of SW education and understood that the allocated time was insufficient. Both positive and negative opinions were reported concerning the fact that SW education is conducted in practical arts. In comparison, many did not understand well about the concept and characteristics of SW education and the details of the curriculum. In relation to the 'understanding of SW education effects', many understood positively about all the effects presented in the questionnaire including problem solving abilities and creativity. In addition, significant differences were found among pre-service teachers' major categories regarding the programming learning experiences and the understanding of SW education curriculum and effects. Based on the results of the research, suggestions were made for the improvement of the pre-service teachers' SW education program.

최근 물리적 언택트(Untact)와 사회적 온택트(Ontact)를 이끄는 기술에 대한 관심이 커지면서 가상현실(VR:Virtual Reality) 기술을 활용한 교육이 주목받고 있다. 이와 더불어 교육 환경이 경험과 체험 위주의 맞춤형 교육으로 급격히 변화함에 따라 사용자 요구를 만족시킬 콘텐츠는 부족한 실태이다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 효과적인 독서교육을 위해 종이책과 전자책을 비교 설명하며 가상현실 기술을 활용한 동화 체험 시스템을 제안하였다. 사용자 얼굴 3D 텍스처 모델링과 멀티플레이어를 통해 비대면 실감형 콘텐츠와 공공데이터를 활용하여 동화선택 기능을 구현하였다. 이처럼 교육적인 관점에서 스스로 선택한 동화를 함께 체험하고 인지한다는 점에서 효과적이다.

In this study, it argues that adolescents lack awareness of the Fourth Industrial Revolution and lack of job expression in games, and suggests promising future vocational education through games. Various previous studies reviewed job education, limitations, and educational effects of online games, and studied job expression in the game from the perspective of future promising jobs, and 45 out of 200 jobs appeared in mobile simulation games. It was found that 'content creators', 'drone experts', and 'software developers' were expressed as promising jobs in the future. Although it has a limitation of investigating only the main character's job, it is meaningful that it pointed out that the current game does not sufficiently cover the functional aspects of vocational education for future promising jobs and suggested the need to reflect future promising jobs.

PISA의 연구 결과에 따르면 컴퓨터 활용 빈도나 ICT 활용 환경 등의 양적 활용 실태는 세계적인 수준이나 프로그램이나 소프트웨어 활동 등의 컴퓨터 질적 활용 정도는 제고될 필요성이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 초등 컴퓨터 교육에도 시사하는 바가 크다. 하지만 인적 물적 여건 등으로 인해 프로그래밍 교육을 초등학교 현장에 바로 적용하기에는 무리가 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 언어의 복잡성이 낮고 프로그래밍 단계와 과정이 간단한 HTML을 현장에 효과적으로 적용하기 위한 텍스트 에디터를 개발하고 개선점을 찾아보았다. 텍스트 에디터는 우선 태그를 직접 칠 필요가 없으며 학생들이 쉽게 학습할 수 있도록 도움말을 제시해 주었고 간단한 이미지 뷰어 기능을 통해 쉽게 이미지를 넣을 수 있도록 하였다. 개발된 텍스트 에디터의 효과를 설문지로 조사한 결과 쉽게 HTML 문서를 작성할 수 있어 학습에 도움이 된다는 점과 도움말을 제시한 부분은 긍정적으로 평가된 반면 보다 UI를 좀더 개선해야 한다는 결과가 나왔다.

A variety of educational policies have been implemented to educate outstanding individuals who will lead the future and to adopt supporting systems. For the successful implementation of educational policies, it is crucial to identify the perception of teachers as main agents of education. This study conducted a survey with elementary teachers in Chungcheongbuk-do. The purpose of this study was to investigate teachers' perception on the major policies related to ICT(i.e., STEAM, Smart Education, Software Education, e-textbook, and EdudataSystem). This study also compared the distribution of teachers' perception on the policies. The results of the study indicated that teachers had relatively positive perception on the importance and the necessity of the policies. On the other hand, it was found that the levels of teachers' training experiences and readiness for teaching related to ICT were relatively low. In addition, the patterns of teachers' perception on STEAM, Smart Education and Software Education were similar. Based on the results, the study suggested that appropriate support and educational strategies for effective implementation of policies should be established.
