본 논문에서는 피지컬 컴퓨팅을 활용한 STEAM 교육의 연구 동향을 분석하고자 한다. 연구 결과를 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫 번째로 연도별 분석의 결과, STEAM 교육은 활발히 실시되고 있었지만 피지컬 컴퓨팅을 활용한 STEAM 교육은 상대적으로 적게 실시되고 있었다. 연구 내용별로 분석한 결과, 피지컬 컴퓨팅을 활용한 STEAM 교육 프로그램을 개발하고 적용하기 위한 연구가 가장 활발하였다 (87%). 또한, 연구 방법에 따라 분석한 결과, 질적 연구와 혼합 연구가 대다수를 차지하고 있는 것을 확인할 수 있었다(92%). 마지막으로 피지컬 컴퓨팅을 활용한 연구 대상은 초등학생이 가장 많은 비중을 차지하고 있었고(52%), 고등학생 (28%), 문헌 (16%)순으로 많았다. 연구 결과를 통하여 피지컬 컴퓨팅을 활용한 STEAM 교육은 연구 내용, 방법, 대상이 편중되어있다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이를 통하여 피지컬 컴퓨팅과 STEAM 교육의 학교 현장의 도입을 위해서 다양한 분야에서 연구가 필요하다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Block-based educational programming language(EPL) is commonly used due to its availability at low or no cost. It is also preferred tool of computing education due to its intuitive design, ease-of-use and its effectiveness in increasing algorithmic thinking abilities especially in elementary students. Physical computing is also necessary because it brings students closer to real-world problem solving by connecting the real world with the computing environment. However, due to high-cost and required knowledge in electrical engineering, many schools find the education difficult to access. The study shows significant increase in computational thinking abilities in both groups treated with EPL and additional physical computing education.

From the influence of DIY (Do It Yourself) and the Maker Movement diverse areas in media, clothing, performing that requires physical computing. That is why the requests of teaching students about physical computing or using physical computing in education area has been increasing. Physical computing education is learning computational thinking by using programming activities, the usage of physical computing is still increasing. However, physical computing education became known recently with the lack of time to research, not only that the effectiveness in education is lacking as well. This research analysed the attitude and accomplishment from different gender of middle schoolers and high schoolers for one semester to see their ideas in programming and increase of designing algorithms.

In this study, the content and level of the elements of Computational Thinking in the Software Education area of elementary practical textbooks were analyzed, and also the computing ratio for each textbook learning activity was analyzed. The elements of Computational Thinking were defined based on the components and definitions of Computational Thinking skills suggested by the Ministry of Education. The contents of Software Education area in practical arts textbooks published by six publishers were analyzed. As a result of analyzing the elements of Computational Thinking for each textbook according to the achievement criteria, there was a difference in whether sub-elements of Computational Thinking were included for each textbook. Second, as a result of analyzing the level of Computing of learning content, the proportion of textbooks presenting Abstract activities connected to Computing was relatively low. When the curriculum is reorganized or the textbook is revised in the future, it is necessary to complement the elements of Computational Thinking in a balanced way, and to include general Abstraction activities and Abstraction activities that can lead to Automation.

컴퓨팅 사고력은 제 4차 산업혁명 시대에 접어든 우리 사회에서 필요로 하는 미래 역량으로 꼽히고 있으며, 우리나라에서도 2015 개정 문이과 통합형 교육과정을 통해 컴퓨팅 사고력 신장을 위한 SW교육을 강조하고 있다. 3D 모델링 교육은 컴퓨팅 사고력과 직접적인 관련이 있다. 3D 모델링을 위하여 실제의 구체물을 단순화 하거나, 모델링을 위하여 필요 없는 부분을 삭제하거나 추가하는 것이 컴퓨팅 사고력의 추상화에 해당된다. 그리고 모델링 프로그램을 사용하는 것은 일종의 자동화에 해당된다. 본 연구에서는 컴퓨팅 사고력 신장을 위한 3D 모델링 교육에서 권장할만한 3D 모델링 프로그램을 틴커캐드(TinkerCad)로 제시하였으며, 컴퓨팅 사고력 신장을 위한 틴커캐드 활용 초등 3D 모델링 교육 방법을 제시하였다.

A SW competency based on computational thinking is considered as one of the core competencies in the future society. However, the concept of computational thinking is difficult to be introduced to the class because of the lack of appropriate educational program and the shortage of proper understandings of students and teachers. Thus, we have applied computational thinking based STEAM program and analyzed its effectiveness to explore the educational possibilities of computational thinking. The 49 samples were selected, 23 for the experimental group, and 26 for the control group. Pre-post tests for integrated thinking abilities and computational thinking were done to explore the CT-STEAM program's effectiveness. As a result, the components of integrated thinking abilities, science preference and self-directed learning abilities were enhanced after CT-STEAM instruction. In addition, computational thinking assessment score was statistically significant. We expect new STEAM programs using various computing tools to be developed in the future.

We enter the age of "a software revolution. The core competence for people living in these times as based on software competence to tackle the problem in computational thinking. Solve the problem of the basis of computational thinking to cultivate these competences to adopt a programming. As a result, this text to study is raising the computational thinking competencies for software training in recognition of the need to learn. A couple of times to develop content for the purposes of computational thinking competencies, Two based on the opinions of experts across extract the contents of a computational thinking. Further, these studies based on accident, we look forward to develop in the process of computational thinking competences.

This study analyzed the effect of the recognition for software education of middle school students who living in Seoul on the recognition for physical computing education. The result of this study are as follows: First, the recognition for software education has a significant effect on the recognition for physical computing education (p<.001, ${\beta}=.569$), specifically the comprehension of software education positively affected the comprehension of physical computing education in software education. Second, this study found that there was differences in the comprehension of physical computing education between middle students at school in Seoul and outside of Seoul. The purpose of this study is to suggest for academic implications effective physical computing education by analyzing the influence of the recognition for software education on the recognition for physical computing education.
