초등학교 인공지능(Artificial Intelligence, AI) 교육은 학교급별 특성과 수준을 고려하여 놀이 및 체험 활동 중심으로 계획되고 있다. 그러나 교육 현장의 수요 및 AI 리터러시 연구에서 AI 개념의 지도 필요성이 제시되고 있다. 초등학생에게 어렵고 생소한 AI 개념을 교육하기 위해 학습자의 발달 특성을 고려한 교수학습 전략이 필요하다. 선행조직자는 개념 지도 시 학습자의 인지적 부하를 줄일 수 있는 효과적인 교수학습 전략 중 하나로 이미 초등학생을 위한 인공지능 교재에 널리 사용되고 있다. 그러나 교재 분석 결과 선행조직자는 학생별 경험과 양육환경의 차이로 인해 선행조직자로서 기능하지 못할 가능성이 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해 본 연구는 초등학교에 널리 활용될 수 있는 선행조직자를 초등 교육과정에서 추출하여 AI 교육 프로그램을 개발하였다. 본 프로그램은 초등학교 5~6학년 AI 교육 내용 기준에서 AI 개념 요소를 추출하여 초등학교 1~4학년 교과 교육과정에서 선행조직자를 선정하였고 4차시의 교육 프로그램을 개발하였다. 본 연구를 통해 개발된 프로그램이 초등학생의 효과적인 AI 개념을 학습과 AI 리터러시 향상에 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다.

The purpose of this study was to develop the level-defferentiated Web Based Instruction(WBI) program, to examine its effects on the science achievement self-directed learning characteristics, and the students’ perceptions on the WBI learning. For this purpose, the advanced and complementary WBI program of level-differentiated curriculum was developed to adapt to class fields and examine instruction facilitating efficiency. Designed and developed the WBI program make it possible to teach students according to the level-differentiated learning for the chapter, ‘weather and climate’ in high school science curriculum. The results of this study are as follows: First, level-differentiated WBI was effective to encourage self-concept, learning eagerness, future-oriented self-apprehension, creativity, self-assessment of the student’s self-directed teaming characteristics. There was no interaction effect of treatment and students’ learning ability at the self-directed learning characteristics. Second, the scores of science achievement of WBI group were significantly higher than those of conventional lecture group. There was interaction effect of treatment and students’ learning ability. However level-differentiated WBI has no effect on openness, initiative, responsibility of the student’s self-directed learning characteristics. There was interaction effect of treatment and students’ learning ability at the science achievement, Third, in the perception questionnaire of WBI teaming, many students showed the WBI teaming was good in terms of causing interaction between learners and web based learning materials including various images and animations. However there are several students who showed learning difficulties. For example they wonder which part is more important and what order is proper to study in hypertext environment.

Scratch, one of the educational programming languages, provides a media-rich programming environment and easy interface to users. It supports Korean language and is utilized usefully in programming classes in elementary and middle schools. However, programming causes cognitive loads to young students. Because the programming process is a complex problem solving procedure that requires logical and abstract thinking abilities. Therefore, we developed a problem based scratch programming teaching and learning model to enhance intrinsic motivation of learners and to maximize the effects of using the scratch, educational programming language. The developed problem based teaching and learning model considered elementary students' characteristics. It was implemented in fifth grade elementary school classes and the educational effects of the model was analysed. The developed model was helpful in enhancing students' problem solving potential and logical thinking abilities.

Since web-based tutoring systems are generally composed with passive and static hypertext, they could not provide adaptive learning environments according to learning ability of each student. In this study, we suggest an intelligent tutoring system, which grasps the learning state of student and provides each student with dynamic learning materials suitable to individual feature based on learning result. It is an agent based system, in which, courseware knowledge for learning is effectively constructed, the proper feedback according to learning assessment is inferred, and it is given to each student.

The purpose of this paper is to explore the types of subjectivity on edutainment features of software education implemented in elementary school. Q-method is used to seek individual learners' subjectivity type. Three types of subjectivity are found: implementation type, intellectual-fun type, and relationship type. Implementation type learners show positive attitude toward making their thinking into realization, intellectual-fun type learners show positive attitude toward solving problems that require intellectual activities, and relationship type learners show positive toward other persons' attention and consideration. These results imply software education will be more enhanced with these three types considered for implementing software education in elementary schools. This study is expected to contribute to further following research and practices.

This study aims to analyze the characteristics and preferences of learners who participated in college online classes for effective online learning. A total of 101 college students who participated in online classes completed the survey including personal characteristics of students and learning factors that affect online classes. The results showed that male students were more likely than female students to respond that online classes were more effective. Likewise students who learned from video recordings compared to those who learned from real-time lectures. As a result of analyzing the difficulties of online learning, there was a high probability that online learning was ineffective for students who had difficulties in self-learning and asking questions to their lecturers. Likewise, students who spent a lot of time studying online lectures, there was a high probability that online classes would be more effective for students who spent a lot of time on assignments. The results suggest that online learning is more effective for students who learn actively and self-directedly than those who passively participate in classes. This study implies that it is necessary to design online classes based on the characteristics and preferences of learners to improve the quality of education.

As an effort to understand alienated gifted students, we investigated learning characteristics and learning tactics of a scientifically gifted student with economic difficulty and physical disadvantage. The student we studied is attending the Saturday Physics Class which is an after school science activity offered by our university. We adopted techniques of qualitative case study. Participant observation was carried out at the field and the interview was done with the participant, his mother, and his teacher of 5th grade. Field documents and self-reports were used to understand the student synthetically. As a result, learning characteristics of the participant could be summarized as a spontaneous learning which originated from the internal motivation and struggle for learning to overcome the sense of inferiority and isolation from the peers. The participant adopted a strategic method for learning to satisfy his learning desire given the circumstance of socioeconomic and physical disadvantage: the three tactics we found were various learning routes, meta-cognitive ability and fervent response.
