The purpose of this study is to develop a software education program using micro:bit based on the ADDIE development model and to analyze the effects of the development of creativity of elementary school students. The education program was developed based on the results of the pre-demand analysis conducted on 40 elementary school teachers in Jeju. In order to verify the effectiveness of the developed education program, 42 students who participated in the education donation program conducted by ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$ University were enrolled in 24 hours for 7 days for 6 days. The results of the analysis show that the software education program developed in this study has positive effects on the creativity factors by improving the programming ability of elementary school students.

This study was conducted to see how science classes using astronomical observations software could affect elementary students' scientific learning motivations and academic achievements. For this, 24 sixth graders of G Elementary School were designated as experimental groups to provide classes in which astronomical observation software was used. The experimental treatment period was 4 weeks and the results were as follows. First, elementary science classes that used astronomical observation software were effective in boosting scientific learning motivation. Second, elementary science classes that used astronomical observation software were effective in enhancing academic achievements. From these study results, we could confirm that elementary science classes that used astronomical observation software were effective for elementary school students' motivation and academic achievements.

Many papers are published in KCI-listed journals for objectively validating research results and evaluations. This study collected articles published from 2008 to October, 2018 (10 years) of KAIE, which is a representative KCI registration institute which publishes various research related to elementary information education, and classified and analyzed by 10 subject areas. As a result, 34.2% of the papers published in the topic related to software education were found in the whole papers, and 33% of the papers published in this society showed the highest number of citations of papers relating to software education. Many of the remaining articles analyzed by subject area were overlapped with software education in the field of small scale medicine. In the future, a considerable number of researchers are expected to focus on software education.

This study is an analysis of Software image using the semantic differential scale with elementary students. We have selected the items in a total of 35 pairs of test about software-related image adjectives and are categorized into 7 main factors, and then analyzed the entire image with the students. The analysis of the differences between the software images of sex, the female students than male students were recognized the software is complex, slow and difficult and do not want to have. The analysis of the self-awareness on the software, the students who know that well recognized for the software select the positive term for the software. The inter-grade analysis are the older grade students were the answer to the objective features of the software like more difficult and complex.

In the 2015 revised curriculum, software (SW) education was strengthened to cultivate computational thinking. In the curriculum of practical course at elementary school and of informatics course at secondary school, the characteristics, and content systems of SW education have developed systematically. However, it is necessary to study practical methods and cases for SW education because the curriculums provide only note and direction about teaching & learning, and evaluation methods for SW education. The purpose of this study is to analyze the achievement standards of the SW curriculum in the tasks of Bebras Challenge 2017 and to suggest various methods of teaching and learning, and of evaluation using the Bebras tasks. The results of this study are expected to propose a basis to develop various teaching and learning and evaluation researches.

As interest in artificial intelligence education for elementary school students has recently increased, it is necessary to analyze the existing elementary information education research from a macroscopic point of view to understand the current situation and to provide implications for subsequent research. This study analyzed Journal of The Korean Association of Information Education for the purpose of looking at the research trend of elementary information education in Korea. For the data of the study, all papers published until 2020 in the first issue of the journal were selected, and 11 research topics were derived by modeling topics. As a result of the study, topic T1, the highest proportion, was analyzed to account for about 38%, and keywords such as education, research, analysis, elementary school, and information were derived according to the order of contribution to topic T1. As a result of regression analysis according to the year of the topic, it was found that the research trend is changing to computing thinking, software education, and artificial intelligence education. The significance of this study is that text data related to elementary information education is objectively clustered.

This study derived optimized teaching aids that use the physical computing method as the solution for effective software education at the elementary level. We set standard for selecting physical computing teaching aids in elementary-level by gathering the opinions from previous studies and think tanks and then applied the standard to some aids and choose one. We also made lesson plan and tried it to the experimental group. Subsequently, students' logical thinking skills showed a statistically significant improvement in terms of the t-test. Also, in the analysis of the effect size, it was shown to have a positive influence on the improvement of the students' logical thinking skills. Additionally, survey of satisfaction evaluation from the students showed that the teaching aid selection standard was effective in selecting suitable teaching aids for elementary students and that the classroom activities utilizing physical computing teaching aids were at a suitable level for elementary students.

The 2015 revised curriculum offers elementary students an unplugged computing education as a way to learn the concepts and principles of computer science in an easy and fun way and to improve their computational thinking. Yutnori is a traditional board game unique to Korea, which contains various contents such as history, culture, and science of our people, which helps to cultivate cultural identity of learners, and can effectively promote cooperation and communication among members. In this paper, we examined the possibility that Yutnori could be used as an unplugged computing tool in elementary school software education and convergence education. Korean traditional board game Yutnori has elements that can learn the sun and movements of heavenly bodies as well as sequential, selection, and repetitive algorithm elements. Unplugged activities that apply Korean traditional culture Yutnori is expected to help foster creative convergence talents by improving elementary school students' computational thinking, communication and community.

현 ICT 교육과정에서는 컴퓨터를 이용한 응용 소프트웨어 및 교수학습 소프트웨어를 익히는 기능 위주의 학습을 추구하고 있다. 이러한 경향은 컴퓨터 교육의 생명인 지식교육에 소홀하고 있다. 또한, 앞으로의 지식 정의화 사회에서는 아이들에게 생각하는 힘 즉 사고력(思考力)을 키우는 것을 필요로 한다. 이 사고력은 문제 해결력에 직접적으로 도움이 된다. 하지만, 기존의 교육방법으로 응용 소프트웨어를 이용하는 것은 사고력 증진에 크게 도움이 되지 않았다. 이에 본 연구에서는 초등학생을 대상으로 지식교육의 핵심인 컴퓨터 구조와 작동원리 중의 하나인 영상 이미지 저장 방범 풍 비트맵 이미지 저장 원리에 관한 학습을 연구하였다.
