Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology is used in a variety of fields because it can make inferences and plans through learning processes. In the field of coding technologies, AI has been introduced as a tool for personalized and customized education to provide new educational environments. Also, it can be used as a virtual assistant in coding operations for easier and more efficient coding. Currently, as coding education becomes mandatory around the world, students' interest in programming is heightened. The purpose of coding education is to develop the ability to solve problems and fuse different academic fields through computational thinking and creative thinking to cultivate talented persons who can adapt well to the Fourth Industrial Revolution era. However, new non-computer science major students who take software-related subjects as compulsory liberal arts subjects at university came to experience many difficulties in these subjects, which they are experiencing for the first time. AI based coding technologies can be used to solve their difficulties and to increase the learning effect of non-computer majors who come across software for the first time. Therefore, this study examines the current state of AI based coding technologies and suggests the direction of future coding education.

Currently, many universities are implementing software-oriented universities and artificial intelligence-oriented universities to foster software-oriented manpower. We are educating students to design and produce computational thinking and coding directly with their major knowledge. However, computer education is not easy for non-majors, and there are many difficulties in coding. The results of responses from 104 students from the College of Health Sciences and College of Social Management who took the liberal arts computer at University H were analyzed using SPSS 26.0 version. In the liberal arts computer class for non-majors, a PJBL-based class plan was proposed. The effectiveness of PJBL-based classes was confirmed through a questionnaire for the improvement of artificial intelligence liberal arts courses. As a result, PJBL-based education showed statistically significant results in terms of satisfaction, effectiveness, and self-efficiency of classes regardless of major.

Coding education is an effective convergence type educational tool. While solving problems and designing programs, students can enhance problem solving ability, logical reasoning ability and creative thinking. Researches on coding education are done primarily for elementary school and middle school students. However, researches on college students are lacking. Today, educating college students about coding is in dire need. Although there are efforts to promote the importance of coding education and make it requirements. People find it difficult to find ways to provide training. There is a need for researches on coding as universal education. Therefore, this research proposed educational training using app inventor based on flipped running in order to effectively promote coding education. This study conducted the survey and the personal interview to measure the effectiveness of coding education. It is hoped that, through coding education, students who do not major in coding could combined their knowledge of their major with coding to improve their problem solving ability to solve various problems based on computing knowledge and approach.

Computational Thinking is one of the biggest issues in the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. It is a core literacy required not only for SW major but also for all students including them. It is not a simple computer software education, but a coding education based on Computational Thinking, and it should be able to solve the problems in everyday life and to express the process and solutions. However, in the case of students who lack background knowledge on SW and programming languages for development, it is hard to know how to algorithmize problems and express them using computer devices. In this study, we proposed a education course model to improve the students' thinking skills and to express them effectively. In addition, we confirmed whether the non-major students who learned through this education course model can express various problems related to the major field by integrating them with computing accidents and improve the problem solving ability.

Since lung cancer is a major causative for cancer-related deaths, the investigations for discovering biomarkers to diagnose at an early stage and to apply therapeutic strategies have been continuously conducted. Recently, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) are being exponentially studied as promising biomarkers of lung cancer. Moreover, supportive evidence provides the competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network between lncRNAs and miRNAs participating in lung tumorigenesis. This review introduced the oncogenic or tumor-suppressive roles of lncRNAs and miRNAs in lung cancer cells and summarized the involvement of the lncRNA/miRNA ceRNA networks in carcinogenesis and therapeutic resistance of lung cancer.

Recently, as the importance of computational thinking skills has increased, several schools have opened and operated software courses for all students. Software education aims to creatively solve various problems based on coding, but it is difficult to motivate non-major learners who do not have engineering knowledge or are not interested in the IT field. Motivation for learning plays an important role in improving learners' concentration and learning efficiency. In this paper, a method of motivating non-major learners for software subjects was studied and the results were evaluated through a questionnaire.

This is a study on a case applying flipped learning to coding classes that is a college liberal arts course. A required coding class for the students who do not major in computers needs a teaching method differentiated from a coding education for training experts. The present study presented a flipped learning teaching model for the coding education of non-major students, and observed its effect and possibility. Flipped learning enables learners to learn with on-line contents anywhere and anytime they want and concentrate on practice education based on what they learned during class. Accordingly, the study sought for the solution to maximize the efficiency of teaching and learning through flipped learning. A pre and post surveys after applying a flipped learning to a practical class confirmed that the students taught using flipped learning were more positively assessed in learning satisfaction than those taught using a traditional method, and that in academic achievement as well, flipped learning was more effective.

here are many cases that take a software education as a required course for non-major students in university curriculums. However, non-major students are experiencing various difficulties in the process of learning programming languages, and there is also the opposite opinion in terms of their effectiveness. In this study, we developed a design based software education model (DBSEM) and curriculum to solve these problems and applied it to undergraduate non-undergraduate students for the last 8 years. In the proposed method, we provide a specialized educational tool such as 'block-based programming tool', but developed 'core module' and 'concept learning module' for computational thinking and applied 'prototype design module' and coding strategy based on it. As a result, non-major undergraduates could easily learn block-based scripting tools and acquire core concepts of computational thinking.

The programming education of non-computer major undergraduates aims to increase the their problem-solving and coding skills so that the skills can be applied to various fields and motivate them to continuously study computer or programming. However, it difficult for them to recognize the necessity of programming knowledge and to find out how it can be used in their major. Therefore, the professor needs to give students a full explanation of their roles to play. In this paper, we revisit the necessity of programming knowledge for non-computer major undergraduates by looking at the convergence cases of ICT technology and the humanities and social arts fields. And we propose an instruction direction of programming learning for them.
