As the necessity of maker education is being emphasized and the app generation is now entering school, expectations concerning the impact of app development education are rising in the field of education. The introduction and rise in popularity of a new type of education, such as app development education, requires a change in attitude among teachers. Therefore, this study focused on the concerns of in-service teachers regarding app development education by applying the Concerns-Based Adoption Model (CBAM) of Hall and Hord (2015). For this purpose, the data was collected from 23 in-service teachers who attended a short teacher training session that introduced app development training. The data was converted to the relative intensity based on the stage of concerns questionnaire (SoCQ) scoring device and was expressed as the SoCQ profile. The results of the survey concerning app development education showed that the stage 0 concern (unconcerned) was reported most frequently by teachers and the stage 4 concern (consequence) was reported least frequently. This kind of result, which is typical at the beginning of the introduction of a new education program, indicates that teachers recognize app development education but do not have sufficient information regarding it. Qualitative results also showed that teachers understand the educational possibilities of app development education, but they were worried about the difficulties expected to be applied in the field. Based on these results, we suggest that more detailed information on app development education be provided through teacher training.

디지털 콘텐츠의 한 형태로 볼 수 있는 앱은 개발자들의 창의적 사고를 바탕으로 현재도 무수히 쏟아져 나오고 있으며, 많은 사용자로부터 선택되어 활용되고 있다. 이러한 변화는 교육분야에도 영향을 주어 앱을 활용한 교육환경과 교육방법에 대한 다양한 연구가 현재 진행되고 있다. 앱과 같은 디지털 콘텐츠의 개발은 창의적 아이디어를 기반으로 구현되며 이는 콘텐츠 사용자의 유용성과 경제적 가치를 결정하는데 중요한 요소로 작용하고 있다. 이러한 창의와 디지털 기술을 접목한 앱 프로그래밍 교육은 학생들의 창의적 사고와 문제해결력을 향상시키는데 중요한 역할을 하며 특히 교육용 프로그래밍 언어(EPL, Educational Programming Language)를 활용한 코딩 교육과 창의적 문제해결력 향상에 관한 관련 연구들이 활성화되고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 EPL을 바탕으로 비IT계열 전공의 대학생들에게 프로그래밍 교육을 실시하고 창의적 사고를 통해 디지털 콘텐츠인 앱을 제작하는 것에 초점을 두기 위한 안드로이드 앱제작 교육 프로그램 개발을 진행하였다. EPL을 위한 도구는 MIT 미디어랩에서 개발한 클라우드 기반의 안드로이드용 앱 인벤터2(App Inventor 2)를 사용하며, 제작한 앱을 스마트 기기에서 즉시 실행하고 확인할 수 있다는데 대해 학습만족도와 성취감이 높음을 수업관찰을 통해 확인할 수 있었으며 제작 과정에서도 활발한 사고력를 발휘하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

본 연구는 교육현장의 교수자가 직접 앱 저작도구를 이용하여 교안 및 교육 내용을 개발하여 학생들이 시간과 장소에 상관없이 효율적인 학습을 하도록 하는데 있다. 현재 스마트폰이나 태블릿을 이용한 교육에 관심이 많으나 영역 전문가인 교사와 프로그램을 개발하는 개발자 사이에 의사 교환의 어려움 등으로 인해, 만족스러운 양과 질의 컨텐츠 개발이 이루어지고 있지 않다. 따라서 교수자는 앱을 프로그래머에 의뢰하지 않고 저작도구를 이용하여 DIY(Do It Yourself) 앱을 개발함으로서 학습내용을 충분히 만족하며, 강의 진행중에서 컨텐츠 변경이 용이하며, 교수자와 학습자와의 커뮤니케이션의 효과와 학습능률을 높이고자 한다.

According to the rapid growth and popularization of the SMART device, the society is being changed greatly and importance of SW education is being emphasized. Also many student have a lot of interests about mobile application programming. The latest study suggests using the robots in the programming education may help to induce learners' interest and motivation, participation, achievement. So in this research, I designed a programming educational plan for SW education using robot and mobile application development tool(App Inventor) and applied them. And I conducted a survey four ares such as class, robot, App Inventor, robot and App Inventor. As a result, learner's response of interest and satisfaction was very positive commonly at four areas. In particular, learners could get programming result immediately using smart phone and could control the robot using smart phone, so learner's interest had increased especially. The conclusion is that suggested plan for SW education using robot and mobile application development tool is useful for programming education.

In this paper, we describe the learning and quiz app using the app inventor and conducted the related questionnaire. We developed a learning philosophy for preliminary early childhood teachers using the developed apps and taught them how to utilize them in early childhood education by explaining the apps and using the app inventor. Through questionnaires, we confirmed the learning effect and the willingness to use in early childhood education. Through this study, I hope to improve the ability of early childhood teacher learning and to utilize the coding in early childhood education with the app developed as the app inventor.

This study aims to suggest app programming education plan by analyzing the effects of app programming education using m-bizmaker on the creative problem solving ability in specialized high school students. Currently, The South Korean government is preparing to conduct SW education in primary and secondary schools. Developing smartphone apps that are familiar to students can be seen as a very effective tool of SW educational measures. In general, app development can only be achieved through specialized training on how to use the app programming language. So, many students think the app programming is difficult areas before creating apps because tired of learning how to an app programming language. As a result of applying app programming education using m-Bizmaker, which is one of the app authoring tools, to the class, it is desirable as an app programming education plan. And according to survey results, it has been proved that the app programming education plan using m-Bizmaker is effective to improve creative problem solving ability.

Due to the influence of the fourth industrial revolution in recent years, maker education is getting attention. Therefore, this study tried to propose the possibility of application (app) development education as maker education by empirically verifying the affective and cognitive effects of app development education using authoring tool. To do this, we implemented app development education in D high school in Seoul, Korea, and collected data from 41 participants. We analyzed the changes in attitudes toward SW education and creative problem-solving ability before and after the education by conducting the paired t-test, and the level of satisfaction and perceived achievement through descriptive statistics analysis. Also, the learner's responses collected through the open-ended questionnaire were analyzed qualitatively. The result showed that the attitude toward SW education and creative problem-solving ability showed statistically significant improvement after app development education using the authoring tool, and the learner's statement also supported this result. Also, satisfaction and perceived achievement after the education were relatively high. Through these results, we have empirically confirmed the effect of app development education using the authoring tool for high school students, and derived the theoretical and practical implications.

Recently, there are efforts to improve my learning ability by using various learning tools based on ICT technology. The application such as games is used in conjunction with lecture class to induce interest in the class and to enhance the learning effect by using smartphone app as learning tool. In addition, we are trying to improve creative thinking ability, problem solving ability and logical thinking ability through early coding education. In this paper, we describe the learning and quiz app using the app inventor and conducted the related questionnaire. We developed a learning philosophy for preliminary early childhood teachers using the developed apps and taught them how to utilize them in early childhood education by explaining the apps and using the app inventor. Through questionnaires, we confirmed the learning effect and the willingness to use in early childhood education.
