In this paper I present the framework for programming education relating to the programming course in university. First of all, I identify the literature of the psychological and educational study of programming in domestic and foreign country. Some outstanding papers in foreign country show that the mental model, programming knowledge and strategies are the important difference between novice and expert programmers. And various problems experienced by novice programmers are identified. I summarise this material and suggest some practical implications for programming teachers in their teaching activity. The framework for programming education presented by this work has three dimensions of program development process, programming learning factors and teaching and learning methods for programming to develope the novice's programming skill. It helps the programming teacher to design, implement and evaluate their programming course with the guideline of programming activities.

It is the latest fashion of interesting with software education in public school environment and also consider as high priority issue of curriculum for college freshman with programming 101 courses. The block-based programming tool is used widely for the beginner and provides several positive features compare than text-based programming language tools. To measure quality of programming code elaborately which is based script language, it is need to very tough manual process. As a result the previously research related with evaluation of block-based script code has been focused very simple methods in which normalize the number of blocks used which is related with programming concept. In such cases in this, it is difficult to measure structural vulnerability of script code and implicit programming concept which does not expose. In this research, the framework is proposed which enable to measure and evaluate quality of code script of block-based programming tools and also provides method to find of vulnerability of script code. In this framework, the quality metrics is constructed to structuralize implicit programming concept and then developed the quality measure and vulnerability model of script to improve level of programming. Consequently, the proposed methods enable to check of level of programming and predict the heuristic target level.

Despite the growing educational demand for the extended reality (XR) convergence content creation for non-IT students, fewer studies have attempted to education material development. In this paper, non-IT students' requirement to create XR convergence contents was analyzed and designed framework system specification. The object-oriented application framework (OOAF) was developed for non-IT students to create XR convergence contents through simple interaction methods such as drag and drop in-game engines. To evaluate the developed framework XR contents development course was operated with 26 industrial design majors sophomore in university. More than 90% of students succeeded in working on prototype XR contents in Oculus Rift. This result will be expected to improve the quality of XR contents creation education for non-IT students and contribute to the growth of the future convergence contents industry.

Various sensor devices has been developed as the wireless Internet and IoT technology are widely used. Recently, open source hardware has evolved for providing various services in IoT environments. However, in comparison to the development of the open source hardware, the development of human resources is missing. In order to solve such a phenomenon, in this paper, we propose a software framework for the embedded software development in open source hardware. The proposed framework provides a fast and intuitive development environment by using the visual programming language and providing fast feedbacks to developers. In addition, we discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the proposed scheme based on the implement on a real board.

The purpose of this study was to develop and apply the elementary teacher training course for educational programming language based on TPACK in order to make elementary school teachers fully equipped with teaching efficacy for SW education. As a result, the informatics teaching efficacy of the teachers in the experimental group who participated in EPL training course developed based on TPACK was statistically more significant than the teachers in the control group(t=4.13, p<.001). The dependent sample t-test of the experimental group showed a statistically significant increase with t=4.57 (p< .001). It proved that TPACK-based teachers' training course is effective to improve teachers' informatics teaching efficacy. It is suggested that the development of SW education teacher training course should be systematically structured considering TPACK framework.

With the development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology, discussions on the use of artificial intelligence are actively taking place in many fields, and various policies for nurturing artificial intelligence talents are being promoted in the field of education. In this study, we propose a robot programming framework using artificial intelligence technology, and based on this, we use Python, which is used frequently in the machine learning field, and an educational robot that is highly utilized in the field of education to provide artificial intelligence. (AI) education program was proposed. The level of autonomous driving (levels 0-5) suggested by the International Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) is simplified to four levels, and based on this, the camera attached to the robot recognizes and detects lines (objects). The goal was to make a line detector that can move by itself. The developed program is not a standardized form of solving a given problem by simply using a specific programming language, but has the experience of defining complex and unstructured problems in life autonomously and solving them based on artificial intelligence (AI) technology. It is meaningful.
