In this study, by using Entry text model learning, educational contents for artificial intelligence education of elementary school students are developed and applied to actual classes. Based on the elementary and secondary artificial intelligence content table, the achievement standards of practical software education and artificial intelligence education will be reconstructed.. Among text, images, and sounds capable of machine learning, "production of emotion recognition programs using text model learning" will be selected as the educational content, which can be easily understood while reducing data preparation time for elementary school students. Entry artificial intelligence is selected as an education platform to develop artificial intelligence education contents that create emotion recognition programs using text model learning and apply them to actual elementary school classes. Based on the contents of this study, As a result of class application, students showed positive responses and interest in the entry AI class. it is suggested that quantitative research on the effectiveness of classes for elementary school students is necessary as a follow-up study.

With the advent of the 4th industrial revolution, interest in artificial intelligence education is increasing in elementary schools. In order to nurture future talents with artificial intelligence capabilities, AI education should be actively conducted at school sites. Although basic software education is provided in the 2015 revised curriculum, there is a tendency to view the programming process that creates artificial intelligence only as a problem-solving process. However, when creating an artificial intelligence, the value of the developer who creates artificial intelligence is projected. Therefore, it is necessary to deal with the contents of artificial intelligence value judgment during SW education. This study has limitations due to the fact that Delphi research was conducted with a group of experts. In the future, it is judged that quantitative research should be conducted to supplement these limitations.

In line with the social changes due to the Fourth Industrial Revolution, foreign countries are strengthening information education for the future of education. This study analyzed the current status of software (SW) and artificial intelligence (AI) education among different types of information education programs in elementary schools of major foreign countries, and compared them with the education provided in Korea. Compared to major foreign countries, Korea allocated very little time for software education in elementary schools, making it difficult to sufficiently cover all areas of the curriculum achievement standards. In addition, other countries recognized the importance of artificial intelligence, an important technology of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, and were providing artificial intelligence education on the basis of software education at the national level. The Korean government is also planning on providing the education at national level, but it was identified that the information education of elementary schools have many problematic issues. This study emphasized the need to establish an information curriculum for elementary schools as a way to address these issues.

This study is a case of convergence education using the AI model of entry in elementary schools. The subject is English, and the class was conducted based on the image learning model among the convergence activities with the art department drawing and the AI model of the entry. In order to effectively achieve the learning goals of speaking and writing in English education. The class was designed by combining art and SW. Students experienced communication using AI, improved confidence, and were able to improve creativity and communication skills by expressing not only listening and speaking but also expressing through various media such as pictures and photos. In addition, in order to find out the effectiveness of the class, a survey was conducted on students and the results were analyzed. As a result of the analysis, it was found that it had a positive effect on students' participation rate, degree of understanding AI after class, interest in AI, satisfaction with AI classes.

In the future, artificial intelligence (AI) technology is expected to become a general-purpose technology (GPT), and it is predicted that AI competency will become an essential competency. Several nations around the world are fostering experts in the field of AI to achieve technological proficiency while working to develop the necessary infrastructure and educational environment. In this study, we investigated the status of software education at the liberal arts level at 31 universities in Seoul, along with precedents from domestic and foreign AI education research. Based on this, we concluded that an AI literacy education model is needed to link software education at the liberal arts level with professional AI education. And we classified 20 AI-related lectures released in the KOCW according to the AI literacy competencies required; based on the results of this classification, we propose a model for AI literacy education in the liberal arts for undergraduate students. The proposed AI literacy education model may be considered as AI·SW convergence to experience AI along with literacy in the humanities, deviating from the existing theoretical and computer-science-based approach. We expect that our proposed AI literacy education model can contribute to the proliferation of AI.

Humanity faces the 4th industrial revolution, many countries are providing systematic and continuous SW education to foster talent with AI capabilities. On the other hand, there are high concerns that the SW gap will widen and polarize as domestic reality does not provide systematic and continuous SW education to learners. Against this background, this study started to investigate the influence of learners' SW experience on SW education. As a result of the study targeting science and engineering students, the effect of SW experience on SW education was significant. With theses results, it is expected that various discussions will be actively conducted so that systematic and continuous SW education can be provided in elementary and secondary schools.

Although the importance of literacy in Artificial Intelligence (AI) education is increasing, there is a lack of testing tools for measuring such competency. To address this gap, this study developed a testing tool that measures AI literacy among middle school students. This goal was achieved through the establishment of an expert group that was enlisted to determine the relevant factors and items covered by the proposed tool. To verify the reliability and validity of the developed tool, a field review, exploratory factor analysis, and confirmatory factor analysis were conducted. These procedures resulted in a testing tool comprising six domains that encompass 30 items. The domains are the social impact of AI (eight items), the understanding of AI (six items), AI execution plans (five items), problem solving with AI (five items), data literacy (four items), and AI ethics (two questions). The items are to be rated using a five-point Likert scale. The internal consistency of the tool was .970 (total), while that of the domains ranged from .861 to .939. This study can serve as reference for developing the analysis of AI literacy, teaching and learning, and evaluation in AI education.

This study analyzes elementary school teachers' perception of Artificial Intelligence, educational effect, and necessity in education. To analyze teachers' perceptions, we developed questionnaires with expert advice. We collected questionnaires for 151 elementary school teachers. The collected data were analyzed by t-test and one-way ANOVA. As a result, AI' perceptions of female teachers were lower than those of male teachers and the necessity of education was less. Teachers with experience in leading schools recognized that AI education would help to improve creativity. Teachers who have a lot of teaching experience, many experience in SW education, the experience in SW education have a high interest in AI and understand the relevance of the subject. We expect that this study will help the direction of SW education.
