  • "Problem-solving methods and procedures" sections in the 2009 revised informatics curriculum emphasized active use of algorithmic thinking to solve problems. And it is proposed to solve the various problems of real life using programming language for the implementation of the algorithm. Recently, various Educational Programming Language has been developed for elementary programming activity and many researches showed that students' cognitive burden was reduced in learning programming language with Educational Programming Languages. However implementation of the algorithm is difficult for novice programmer. For the reason, effective way is required for elementary students to connect design of the algorithm and implementation of the algorithm. Therefore, in this study propose the algorithm design worksheets that it is possible to create an algorithm to describe the content needed to implementation in programming education. And this study proved the effect of the algorithm design learning tools through experiment.

  • As an emphasis has been put on the importance of computational thinking, universities have opened software educational programs as required basic courses.. Therefore this study aimed to examine non-major students' perceptions of programming before and after they had programing education. To this end, this study performed programming education for 15 weeks using the Scratch programming language, and then conducted a questionnaire survey. This study analyzed responses from 214 students. According to the results of the analysis, 74 % of the non-major students had no previous experience with programming, 87% felt that programming was difficult, and 69.7% answered that they did not need programming education. To change these negative perceptions of programming, this study made the following suggestions. First, the professor should clearly convey the needs, purposes, and content of programming education to students prior to class. Second, programming should be designated as an optional course rather than required one. Third, it is necessary to develop content integrated with majors, or educational programs or content connected to getting a job or starting a business.

  • In this paper, we have selected physical computing as the focused learning elements with the PBL-based programming instruction method. Students experienced physical computing by using Arduino. Development of robot using Arduino can create an effective educational environment and also provide solutions for lack of environmental conditions, such as time or spatial factor restrictions and excessive expense issues; these are major obstacles to developing robot programming education. Finally, we analyzed the effects on growth of student's logical thinking and problem solving abilities by demonstrating the Arduino application courseware to the field of education.

  • A robot assisted education has advantages to increase the students' flow degree. Especially, when we teach programming with robots we take advantages that the students can easily understand the programs because they are interested in the robots and they can see the movement of the robots. However, it is difficult to teach programming to meet our purposes because the students have reluctances to the robot programming with sensors and they take a lot of time building the robots. Therefore, in this paper I analysed the patterns of the robot programming and propose new robot programming education methods that the students need not to care to the sensors. According to this methods, we can teach the robot programming efficiently because we reduce the time to build and programming the robots.

  • Data structure and algorithm are primary courses for computer programming education. However, now those are not interesting courses for students because the programming methodologies that used these courses are not the proper methodologies for the visual and windows programming. Therefore, we developed the SCSA (Software Component for Search Algorithm) which is a software component for effective search algorithm education, and is based on visual programming in this thesis.

  • Computer programming education gives students a chance to use computers independently and actively. This plays a very positive role in acquiring higher cognitive skills such as mathematical skills and creative logical thinking. Thus the purpose of this study is to measure the degrees of students' problem-solving abilities using MCU programming kits based on the ICT Education Guide. The experiment confirms that programming classes using MCU kits have a more positive effect on the students problem-solving abilities than do those using the existing computer textbooks. The sub-constituents of problem-solving abilities - problem recognition, information gathering, analysis, diffuse thinking, decision-making, planning, execution, evaluation and feedback - also show significant statistical differences. Therefore, we can conclude that programming classes using MCU kits are very effective in advancing problem-solving abilities.

  • 컴퓨팅 사고력이 강조됨에 따라 우리 나라를 비롯한 세계 여러 나라에서는 프로그래밍 교육 등 컴퓨팅 관련 교육을 실시하고 있다. 일반적으로 프로그래밍 교육에서 초보 학습자에게는 블록 기반 프로그래밍 언어를 학습한 후 텍스트 기반 프로그래밍 언어를 학습하게 된다. 블록 기반 언어와 텍스트 기반 언어는 동일한 프로그래밍 논리를 함양하게 되지만, 다른 모든 언어들과 마찬가지로 언어 특성, 사용법, 형태 등 다소 차이가 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 블록 기반 프로그래밍 언어에서 텍스트 기반 프로그래밍 언어의 학습 전이의 효과에 대해 이론적 고찰을 실시하였으며, 그 결과 대부분의 연구에서 긍정적 전이 효과를 입증하였음을 확인하였다.

  • 2007 revised curriculum in primary schools by the educational programming should be carried out due to a number of practical constraints have been performed well. Elementary education program conducted by the EPL and Scratch Programming for haneunge was not long after the development of intuitive interface and blocks created using the syntax, contains multimedia elements, such as the benefits that can create artifacts due to the elementary education program is appropriate for. The researcher targeted the school for a semester, 4th year 12 weeks based on the results of scratch programming, programming by way of the Plan and the training and the results were analyzed. Scratch programming to increase student interest and enhance creativity and Formal help cultivate the scientific attitude can give you results. Scratch Programming for Elementary EPL Education is an effective lead of the students' prior knowledge or interest in sex by level of achievement because of the variation to allow individual learning needs to organize a program of study. And results in the production of sufficient thinking ahead and given time to discuss the purpose of education and programming will need to be alive.

  • Informatics curriculum revised 2015 proposed the use of block type and text type of programming language by organizing problem solving and the programming unit in a spiral. The purpose of this study is to find out whether the algorithms helps programming learning and whether there is a positive transition effect in block type programming learning to text type programming trailing learning. For 15 elementary school students was conducted block type and text type programming learning. As a result of the research, it is confirmed that writing the algorithm in a limited way can interfere with the learner's expression of thinking, but the block type programming learning has a positive transition to the text type programming learning. This study is meaningful that it suggested a plan for the programming education which is sequential from elementary school.

  • This study investigates the contents of programming education in elementary information education textbooks in Busan and Zhejiang. Two textbooks identify the contents of elementary school information education textbooks on setting goals of programming education, selecting educational programming languages, and selecting and developing contents of programming education. Textbooks in the two regions are designed to select programming languages for elementary school levels and to select creative learning topics to help learners learn programming in the process of solving problems themselves. The textbooks identified in this study are designed so that learners can learn programming naturally in the process of solving problems.
