  • In this paper, we design a programming education model that uses emotional intelligence and apply the model to programming education in elementary school. In our previous work, we found that there is a meaningful correlation between emotional intelligence and programming ability. In this paper, as a follow-up study, we design a programming education model based on a storytelling model and emotional intelligence. In order to test the performance of the proposed model, we applied our proposed model to the 5th grade elementary school students who have no programming experience. Based on extensive survey work and statistical analysis, we found that the experimental group by the programming education using the emotional intelligence got a statistically significant higher achievement than the comparative group by the traditional programming education. We hope that our model will be helpful in programming education in schools.

  • As the 4th industrial revolution has progressed in recent years, the importance of robot education in elementary school education is increasing. In this paper, I suggested robot education framework to consider conceptual understanding and learning activities based on the 2014, 2015 KAIE software education standard curriculum for elementary school. The framework is reconstructed the 7 stages, In order to generalize the standardized model of the software curriculum, the achievement criteria should be prepared according to the content system of the curriculum considering the conceptual understanding and learning activities proposed in this paper, and if the educational contents are developed and utilized, it is expected to contribute to the activation of robot education in addition to elementary school software education.

  • The importance of computer education has increased as a knowledge-based society develops. The national project for developing the industry of educational information will be ended by the year of 2000 From year 2001 on, the korean government plans to include computer education in Elementary and Middle-School Curricula. Teachers' colleges in Korea need to develop standardized teaching materials. These teaching materials may be used to teach a computer education class, plan a computer education curriculum, and do research on computer education teaching methods as well as computer education teaching materials. This study attempted to examine some aspects for developing teaching materials which we may use to teach pre-service teacher trainees in a teachers' college. The results of this study will help pre-service teacher trainees not only improve their ability of information literacy, but also obtain some techniques and strategies for teaching computer education in school.

  • To maximize educational effect with new educational methods in the 4th Industrial Revolution era, immersive education has become the core type of education and virtual reality (VR) is at the center of realistic content. VR education is increasing in school, but researches on VR production education are insufficient. Our study has proposed a school-level curriculum for students to create their own VR content. The output and the survey results were analyzed to find out the learner characteristics of elementary school students, middle school students, and pre-service teachers at each school level. As a result, there were some noticeable differences in concentration, content subject, and production time according to school level. Primary school students focused on their subjects, middle school students related to learning, and pre-service teachers put top priority on contents useful for primary education.

  • The purpose of the present study was to scrutinize computer games that can motivate elementary school students through their interactive "edutainment" effects. The types of elements in computer games that students find interesting as learning media and their impact were studied. The current status of Korean computer games, issues related to learning English, and methods to stimulate the motivation and interest in learning by elementary school students were explored. A computer game model for efficiently teaching English to elementary school students through a connection between computer games and education was suggested. In this model, overall games were designed with the focus on the integration of curriculum and content subjects related to learning activities. For games not to be biased toward entertainment and to have systemized learning steps, the games are composed of an introduction, presentation, practice, production and evaluation, in that order. The model suggested by this plan and composition make it possible to approach learning efficiently with entertaining games based on a systematic learning curriculum. As shown above, developing the model of educational computer games can be seen as an opportunity, which can provide amusement and interests and a broad learning experience as an additional learning method.

  • Rapid changes in the knowledge and information society of the 21st century should be embraced and applied to teachers. Since artificial intelligence(AI) is an important axis of rapid change, artificial intelligence education should be started from elementary school. This change requires elementary school teachers to have basic skills for AI education. In this study, an AI education program for elementary school teachers is developed. This development consists of three stages, the first stage is the understanding of artificial intelligence, the second stage is the understanding and application of artificial intelligence tools, and the final stage is the creation and application of artificial intelligence programs. 15 elementary school teachers were tested. The result of this study will be a useful educational program for teachers in charge of AI education in elementary school students.

  • Computer education currently executed at elementary schools showed problems of system of education curriculum, repetition, and lack of consistent system as a result of analyzing index for information and communication technology, education curriculum, and related literatures, and most of the education contents have difficulty to nurture logic thinking and problem-solving ability since they are composed mainly of software function learning. Concerning this issue, this study suggests an innovated computer education curriculum with reinforced information ethics field with computer principle, algorithm, and programming, in other words, a corrected and supplemented version of former content system based on computer science guidance cases of ACM education curriculum model of USA, computer education curriculum of state Tennessee, and information technology education curriculum of Great Britain judging that introduction of computer science factors are desperate to improve computer education curriculum in elementary schools.

  • Most of elementary school students possess computers at home, and learn about ICT in their school. But the extreme use of computer games may have negative effects on students' learning and life style. In this research, we analyzed the current status of 5th and 6th graders' computer game addiction in Daejeon, ChoongchungNam-Do and ChoongchungBuk-Do areas. And we have also investigated the relationship of students' computer game addiction with their self control abilities and the abilities to adjust to their school life. As the results of the research, we discovered that 15.6% of respondents showed strong possibilities of computer game addiction. Boys, students living in rural areas and students with relatively low grade showed strong possibilities of game addiction. In addition, it was found that as students showed high scores in their self control abilities and the abilities to adjust to school life, they demonstrated less possibilities to be addicted to computer games.
