이 연구에서는 과학 수업에서 실감형 콘텐츠를 활용한 경험이 많은 초등 교사를 대상으로 심층 면담을 통해 실감형 콘텐츠의 활용에 대한 인식과 요구 사항을 분석하였다. 구체적으로 (1) 과학 수업에서 초등 교사는 주로 어떠한 실감형 콘텐츠를, 어떠한 방식으로 활용하고 있는지, (2) 과학 수업에서 실감형 콘텐츠 활용에 대한 초등 교사의 인식과 어려움은 무엇인지, (3) 과학 수업에서 실감형 콘텐츠 활용을 위한 연수에서의 초등 교사의 요구 사항은 무엇인지에 관해 알아보았다. 연구 결과 첫째, 초등 교사는 주로 디지털교과서와 '사이언스레벨업' 사이트에서 제공하는 실감형 콘텐츠를 사용하였고 콘텐츠 유형은 활용 목적에 따라 '탐구형', '방문형', '제작형'으로 분류할 수 있었다. 둘째, 초등 교사들은 실감형 콘텐츠 활용의 교육적 장점으로 과학 내용 이해에 도움, 흥미와 호기심 유발, 실재감을 통한 몰입을 언급하였다. 실감형 콘텐츠 사용과 관련된 어려움은 여러 가지가 언급되었으나 과학 수업 내용에 적합한 양질의 교육용 콘텐츠가 매우 부족하다는 점, 실감형 콘텐츠를 활용할 수 있는 구체적인 수업 사례의 예시가 부족하다는 점 등이 있었다. 셋째 실감형 콘텐츠 활용을 위한 교사 연수와 관련해서 초등 교사들은 질 좋은 실감형 콘텐츠에 대한 정보 제공, 구체적인 수업 사례 중심의 연수, 실감형 콘텐츠 유형별로 적용해 볼 수 있는 수업 모형의 제공, 필요한 기기의 구입, 사용, 관리 및 운영에 관련된 정보 안내가 필요함을 강조하였다. 이러한 연구 결과를 반영하여 초등 과학 수업에서 실감형 콘텐츠를 보다 효과적으로 활용하기 위한 시사점을 논의하였다.

이 논문에서는 초등학교 교과서에서의 가분성(divisibility) 개념을 중심으로, 개념적 사고의 과정을 그대로 Python 언어로 코딩하고 Computational Thinking (이하, CT) 중 하나인 자동화에 따른 계산의 효율성을 고찰하였다. 이로부터 얻을 수 있는 교육적 시사점은 다음과 같다. 수학적인 개념적 사고를 CT의 관점에서 생각해 보고, 또한 역으로 컴퓨터 과학에서 중시하고 있는 CT에서 수학적 개념을 추출해 볼 수 있는 쌍방향의 활동이 수학 중심의 코딩교육에서 필요하다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the elementary students' views about lab-based science learning. For the purpose of this study, semi-structured interviews were conducted with thirty sixth grade students in 12 classes from two elementary schools located in Daegu City. The interview contents consisted of three major categories. The first category was related to attitude toward science lab, the second was related to lab-based science learning which had four sub-categories; recognizing lesson object, planning experiment, performing experiment, drawing conclusion in lab-based science learning in which the students had ordinary have views and expectations, and the last category was related to students' difficulties and something need to be improved in lab-based science learning. In-depth interviews were performed individually and the interviews were recorded. From the interviews, we found that students, in first category, do like lab-activities more than lectures or instruction-based activities in textbook. Students, in second category, wanted generally more discussion for their own activities rather than teacher's instruction and they wanted teacher' mediation conflicts within small groups and comments for students' experiment results. In the last, most of students had fears for some dangerous reagents and accidents. Based on the results, the study suggested that teacher need to give their students to autonomous discussion opportunities to design and interpret data through teacher' guided questions in inquiry steps, to produce some intimate atmosphere for active interaction in small groups, and to teach the safety education on some dangerous reagents.

In recent years, Korea encourages teachers to do STEAM education(Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts & Mathematics), which includes Arts to STEM education to train creative science technology talent. Related to this, we developed a subject substitute STEAM program for the 6th grade students in elementary school and applied it in a field. The STEAM program which substitutes contents in curriculum related to Energy unit was developed and it was taught to twenty four sixth grade students during regular classes. During the classes, all activities of students were observed and they were written in recording notes during the observation. After all STEAM program ended, how students recognize the subject substitute STEAM program compared to general class, understand learning contents and think about the program before and after the STEAM classes were analyzed through questionnaire and interviews. The results were as follows. First, some students had difficulty in reconciling different ideas in group, creative thinking and crafts but most students liked the STEAM classes because many activities are fun and it is easy to understand. Second, learners regarded practical use of knowledge, learning different subjects together and interests as the reasons they can understand learning contents easily during STEAM program. Third, learners recognized STEAM classes are good to understand knowledge, think creative ideas and improve social skills after the STEAM classes while they showed anticipation, worry and fear before taking the classes. It is found that a subjective substitute STEAM program is helpful to increase learners' interests in learning, understand learning contents, increase creativity and have a good personality through a qualitative research.
