This study examined inservice elementary teachers' thoughts on the development of educational apps by preservice elementary teachers and implications for TPACK education for preservice elementary teachers. A case study was conducted in which preservice elementary teachers developed a science education app, and the three teachers were surveyed for their thoughts regarding this. The results regarding the characteristics of the developed app by preservice teachers were as follows. First, "inquiry" had the highest value among educational goals intended by the preservice teachers. In addition, the scores for tool-type apps and apps in which interaction between learners and instructors occurs were relatively high. Second, most of the preservice teachers developed apps to meet curriculum goals, but their apps showed low-level characteristics in terms of the constructive and cooperative dimensions. The results of the analysis of the thinking of elementary school teachers regarding the education development apps are as follows. First, elementary school teachers assigned the lowest scores to the effectiveness of the apps, and to this problem, the achievement standard with respect to the curriculum and the evaluation and modification activities fir the apps were proposed. Second, the teachers indicated that it would be appropriate to provide the experience of making apps to directly improve the TPACK of preservice teachers. Third, the respondents thought that preservice teachers should develop block coding literacy to create apps using App Inventor. Fourth, the teachers considered it necessary to emphasize simulated instructions, as well as the experience of collecting and handling data through apps to improve preservice teachers' TPACK app development for educational use.

앱 인벤터는 GUI 환경에서 블록 편집기를 사용하여 앱을 개발한다. 따라서 누구나 쉽게 앱 프로그래밍을 시작할 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 또한, 앱 인벤터의 공식 사이트의 gallery 공간에 공개된 수많은 공개 앱 소스(aia 파일)를 쉽게 구할 수 있기 때문에 다른 사람이 만든 앱의 소스를 그대로 가져다가 이미지만 바꿔서 자신이 만든 것처럼 앱을 공개할 수도 있다. 그러나 직접 블록 단위로 비교해보지 않고서는 표절이나 도용 여부를 판단하는 것은 쉽지 않다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 앱 인벤터로 개발한 앱들의 유사도를 자동으로 계산해주는 도구를 개발하였다. 원본 프로그램과 도용된 프로그램은 유사도가 높게 계산될 것임을 예상할 수 있기 때문에 유사도 계산 프로그램은 코드 도용을 확인하는 목적으로 활용될 수 있다. 본 논문에서 구현한 도구의 평가를 위해서 다양한 실험을 수행하였고, 실제로 유사도가 높았던 앱들이 서로 공통된 블록을 다수 포함하고 있음을 밝혀내었다. 이러한 실험결과를 바탕으로 우리가 개발한 도구가 앱 인벤터로 개발한 앱에 대해서 소스 표절이나 코드 도용을 탐지하는 목적으로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

Among the types of robots, it is not easy to make a robot that walks on two legs. For this, it is necessary to be able to create software that can control precise servomotor settings and various operations. This process is very difficult for beginners and not easy to make because there is no suitable Arduino shield shape for the robot. Therefore, in this study, a method for manufacturing Arduino and plug-in type shield was proposed. In addition, the process of developing a PC control program that can simplify motion control, manufacturing a robot, and setting servo motor values to easily control motion was introduced. It is expected that this will be of great help to novice developers who are interested in making robots.

In the 4th industrial revolution, the maker movement is spreading around the world with the fusion of advanced technology with product manufacturing. Already in developed countries such as the US and Japan, the emphasis is on maker education that integrates education into traditional makers' movement. Through this, we are fostering young talents who will lead the fourth industrial revolution era. Domestic maker education is mainly performed in the maker space, and is limited to the IT field using Arduino and App-Inventor. Therefore, it has the limitation of fostering IT-oriented makers. Therefore, it is affecting the proliferation of the maker's movement because of the difficulty of participation of the general public. The purpose of this study was to understand the characteristics of maker 's movement and to suggest the direction of Korean maker education. In order to accomplish the purpose of research, we analyzed the case of convergent maker education at D Creation Economic Innovation Center, which combines IT and culture technology. We conducted a case study on maker education(VR production project, electronic publishing, beads craft, leather craft, IoT) which was held from July 8 to August 30, 2017 five times. We conducted interviews with five preliminary makers who participated in all the courses of the education, and five instructors who acted as professional makers with pre- developed questionnaires. The results of the study were derived by applying the Thematic Analysis method after opening the contents of the interview. Based on the results of the study, we could suggest characteristics of Korean makers and future direction of maker education.
