본 연구에서는 프로그램을 전혀 해보지 않았고, 게임에는 관심 있는 초등학교 저학년을 대상으로 EPL 도구로서 스크래치를 이용한 SW교육의 교수 학습 모형을 개발하였다. 5단계 10차시로 분류하여 각 단계별 학습목표를 설정하고 교수 학습 목표를 결정하였다. 학습목표에 맞게 각 단계별 수업이 이루어지면 목표에 도달할 수 있도록 반복수업, 흥미 있는 수업, 이해도가 증가할 수 있도록 단계별 수업으로 구성하였다. 또한 SW교육 교수 학습 모형에서 각 차시별 목표를 설정하고 단계별 교수 학습 전략을 제공하여 목표에 도달할 수 있도록 유도하였다. 본 연구를 통해 초등학교 저학년에게 SW교육이 가능한지, 어느 정도 수준의 교육으로 이루어져야 하는 지, EPL 도구로서의 스크래치의 활용성은 어느 정도인지 등을 알아보고 SW교육에 수업자료로 활용하고자 한다.

SW 교육의 중요성은 이전 보다 강조되고 있지만, 학습의 사각에 놓여있는 학습부진아를 위한 SW 교육 과정의 개발은 거의 존재하지 않는다. 따라서 초등 학습부진아를 대상으로 SW 교육 과정을 개발하여 그들의 학습 흥미도를 높일 수 있도록 레고 위두 2.0을 기반으로 설계하고자 한다.

With the development of artificial intelligence, a lot of platforms have emerged that enable anyone to easily access and learn about artificial intelligence or create artificial intelligence models. Therefore, in this study, we analyzed various artificial intelligence education platforms and developed and proposed a SW education class plan using a framework-based artificial intelligence education platform for activating artificial intelligence based SW education. The artificial intelligence-based SW education framework aims to cultivate artificial intelligence literacy on the basis of computational thinking. In addition, a learner-centered project class was formed to include elements that could be fused with real life contexts or other subjects. Using this, with the theme of creating an artificial intelligence program to help separate garbage collection, a six-hour project-based class was developed and proposed using practical arts, social studies, and creative experiential activities. This project class was organized using a platform that is not difficult, such as AI Oceans and Entry.

In line with the social changes due to the Fourth Industrial Revolution, foreign countries are strengthening information education for the future of education. This study analyzed the current status of software (SW) and artificial intelligence (AI) education among different types of information education programs in elementary schools of major foreign countries, and compared them with the education provided in Korea. Compared to major foreign countries, Korea allocated very little time for software education in elementary schools, making it difficult to sufficiently cover all areas of the curriculum achievement standards. In addition, other countries recognized the importance of artificial intelligence, an important technology of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, and were providing artificial intelligence education on the basis of software education at the national level. The Korean government is also planning on providing the education at national level, but it was identified that the information education of elementary schools have many problematic issues. This study emphasized the need to establish an information curriculum for elementary schools as a way to address these issues.

The purpose of this study was to analyze domestic research trends of software education using robot, and find out implications for studies. The 108 articles from 2006 to 2016 in terms of software education using robot were analyzed. Results showd that there has been the growing number of articles, the development research was most frequently used in those studies. And most articles were studies on elementary school students. There used programming such as Scratch, NXT-G etc. and utilized robot likes Mindstorms series, Picocriket etc. Also, there applied to PBL, CPS etc. on software education using robot. Finally, Positive results were shown in learners' cognitive and affective domain. This research has an significance in terms of verifying the educational implications of software education using robot, and offering the direction of software education using robot in the future.

The purpose of this study is to verify the effectiveness of the Development-oriented model (Discovery-Design-Development: DDD) for developing students' Computational Thinking skills in software education. DDD is a class model that learns the process of developing SW to solve real-life problems through three stages of Discovery, Design, and Development. In order to verify the effectiveness of the DDD, first grade students at G university who did not have SW education class were tested. As a result, the students who experienced SW development through DDD maintained the learning motivation of SW education before and after, especially the confidence area increased significantly. In addition, students also noted that the Design phase was particularly helpful in improving CT abilities and the DDD was a significant help in understanding of decomposition and algorithms.

In order to improve computational thinking, elementary schools have been using 'Scratch' to provide basic programming education. However, the study on evaluation of computational thinking is at an early stage. Therefore, this study evaluated the conceptual level of computational thinking using the scratch code analyzing. For this, Dr. Scratch was used to analyze 179 scratch projects. The results showed that the conceptual level of computational thinking of most elementary students was at the developing level, and that it varied according to gender and production style, showed the lowest level of logic and abstraction, and improved computational thinking during programming. This study is meaningful in that it provides implications for the improvement of teaching methods and self-directed evaluation in learning.

In accordance with the 2015 Revised Practical Curriculum, software education for elementary school students will focus on making software and not using software. Therefore, we must revise the computer education curriculum at national universities of education to include classes on programming. In this study, I surveyed computer education students to learn more about their programming experience as well as their understanding of and necessity for software education. Based on results of the survey, I found that students had a strong understanding of software education and that they recognized its importance; however, students who had not experience related to programming education had a weak the understanding and necessity for software developing education. I suggested that software-related courses should open as a major subjects at the universities.

The purpose of this study is to statistically analyze the correlation between CS Unplugged education and the computational thinking of gifted and talented students. In this study, qualitative research was conducted for 17 students in 5th grade gifted class at an elementary school in the city of Yongin. Students participated in 10 hours of CS unplugged classes. Student questionnaire, class journals, student activity sheets, and student interview records were collected and qualitatively analyzed. In order to supplement the qualitative data, computational thinking ability tests were also administered. The results of the study are as follows. First, CS unplugged education plays an effective role in improving CT of gifted and talented students. Second, it was not every sub-area of CT that CS unplugged education brought statistically significant improvements in. Third, CS unplugged education is suitable to be presented as the first step of the SW curriculum for gifted and talented students.

The purpose of this study is to develop a Python sorting algorithm training program based on execution time as an educational method for enhancing the logical thinking power of elementary students and then to verify the effect. The education program was developed based on the results of the pre-demand analysis conducted on 100 elementary school teachers. In order to verify the effectiveness of the developed educational program, I teached 25 students of the volunteer sample of the elementary school education donation program conducted at ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$ University conducted 42 hours, 7 days. The results of the pre-test and post-test were analyzed using the 'Group Assessment of Logical Thinking(GALT)' developed by the Korea Educational Development Institute. The results showed that the Python sorting algorithm training centered on execution time was effective in improving the logical thinking ability of elementary school students.
