컴퓨팅 사고력은 복잡한 문제를 빠르고 정확하게 해결하기 위하여 컴퓨터 과학의 개념과 원리 혹은 컴퓨팅 시스템을 활용하는 절차적인 사고 능력을 의미한다. 컴퓨팅 사고력의 중요성이 강조되고 있는 가운데 컴퓨팅 사고력 향상 방안에 대한 많은 연구들이 이루어지고 있으나 실질적으로 학습자들의 사고력 향상을 평가는 상대적으로 소홀한 편이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 컴퓨팅 사고력 평가 기준으로 컴퓨팅 사고력 문제 해결 요소 10가지를 제시하고 이를 기준으로 어떻게 평가할 것인가에 대한 방안을 제시하였다.

This study was to review the research trends in domestic computing thinking and to suggest future research direction by analyzing 138 papers related to computing thinking published in domestic academic journals from 2015 to 2018. As a result, domestic research on computing thinking has been steadily increasing since 2015, and quantitative research, development research and experimental research were mainly used. Most research were conducted for elementary school students and university students. Research topics are oriented to the curriculum and program as well as the relationship among the variables related with computational thinking. It is necessary to explore empirical studies such as teaching methods, teaching tools, media utilization, and evaluation methods in order to promote learner's computing thinking. Also, it is needed to explore various variables related to enhance computing thinking and the relationship among the variables.

Computational thinking is complexity and independent subject matter being capable to learn concept of computer science and providing methodology of problem solving. Also many experts have said that computational thinking will be grow essential tool in the further developing information society. Thus our country has been trying to introduce it in the K12 informatics subject matter education. Therefore we proposed a introducing method of computational thinking being appropriated of a character of it in the informatics curriculum. To do this, we analyzed character and worthy of it, advanced model cases introducing it into the curriculum. And we proposed that introduced case of it into curriculum is divided 3 cases archiving computational thinking itself, being connected aim of general subject matter with it and computer science education. According to this advanced cases, this study selected permeative style of computational thinking with the informatics subject matted curriculum. This method is divided achievement criterion into contents and means. also we proposed that contents area of informatics subject matter achievement criterion is composed Computing System, Information Life, Software and means area can be filled with subset of computational thinking. This introducing method can make informatics subject matter education settle subject matter helping problem solving through computer system beyond character of technology oriented subject matter.

일반 학생과 소외계층 학생은 컴퓨팅 기기에 대한 접근성은 큰 차이가 존재하지 않지만, 컴퓨팅 기기를 활용하는 역량에서는 큰 차이가 존재한다. 이러한 문제는 소외계층과 일반 학생 사이에 컴퓨팅 사고력 차이를 유발하였으며, 공교육에서 이루어지는 소프트웨어 교육의 효과 차이를 초래하였다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 본 연구에서는 소외계층의 컴퓨팅 사고력을 분석하는 연구를 진행하였다. 소외계층 학생을 대상으로 설문 조사를 진행하고, 설문 결과를 요인에 따라 분석하는 연구를 진행하였다. 연구 결과, 소외계층 학생은 학교급이나 성별에 따른 컴퓨팅 사고력의 차이는 존재하지 않았다. 반면에 경험한 프로그래밍 언어에 따른 컴퓨팅 사고력의 차이가 나타났다. 특히, 소외계층 학생은 프로그래밍 언어 경험이 많을수록 컴퓨팅 사고력이 높은 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

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.

The informatics education pursues to improve computational thinking ability. The purpose of this study is to explore the instructional methods for the informatics education of the 2015 revised curriculum to be effectively operated at the school. To do this, we investigate the characteristics of information curriculum in 2015 curriculum and teaching and learning methods of informatics education. Through this, it is expected that it will be able to gain a viewpoint on teaching methods of informatics education curriculum and can help the direction of teaching and learning research of informatics education.

The purpose of this study is to develop and validate a general-purpose evaluation tool and to analyze their applicability in problem solving programming education for college students of teacher training college. For this purpose, we have redefined the area of computational thinking and detail elements from the viewpoint of problem solving programming, and developed general-purpose computational thinking scale to evaluate them. The reliability and validity were analyzed by applying the evaluation tool developed for the actual college students of teacher training college. Through this study, it was confirmed that the a general-purpose evaluation tool developed in this study can be used as a tool to computational thinking assessment and can be generalized.

There is a hot debate about what the core competencies of future generations, who have to live an uncertain future, should cultivate. The future society is expected to become a Software-oriented Society driven by software. Under these circumstances, interest in software education is exploding around the world, and interest in cultivating computational thinking through software education is also increasing. Also, discussions about what computational thinking is and what competence factors are made up are in progress. However, the research on the relationship between the competence factors of computational thinking is relatively insufficient. In order to solve this problem, this study proceeded as follows. First, five competence factors of computational thinking were selected. Second, we defined a path model to analyze the relationships among the competence factors of computational thinking. Third, we chose a test tool to test computational thinking. Fourth, the computational thinking tests were conducted for 801 students in grades 3 through 6 of elementary school. Fifth, implications were derived by analyzing various viewpoints based on the results of the computational thinking test.

With the advent of the 4th Industrial Revolution, the importance of solving problems through computing has been emphasized, and software education to improve computational thinking as a core competency has been designated as an essential subject. In order for education for computational thinking to be effective, appropriate tools for evaluating computational thinking must be supported. While studies on computational thinking have been conducted in the meantime, there have been no systematic studies on such evaluation-related studies. This study analyzed the related studies on the computational thinking assessment conducted in Korea and analyzed the previous research of the evaluation tools, evaluation criteria, and evaluation methods. Based on this, the implications for the study of computational thinking evaluation method were suggested.
