The study was aimed at verifying the effectiveness of Book-Coding reading education as a reader activity of older elementary school children at a time when high-dimensional thinking abilities were formed. To this end, 30 fifth-grade children of N Elementary School in N-si, Gyeonggi-do, comprised of 15 students from a reading education program using Book-Coding, and 15 students from a reading comprehension program, and applied the reading education program over a total of 12 sessions. The main results of the study are summarized as follows. First, when the effects of the convergence reading education program using Book-Coding on the logical thinking ability of the students in the upper grades in the elementary school were analyzed, all the six sub-factors of logical thinking ability, that is, conservation logic, proportional logic, variable controlling logic, probabilistic logic, correlational inference logic, and combinational logic, were proved to have statistically more meaningful difference than the group writing a book report. Second, the analysis result of the influence of the convergence reading education program using Book-Coding on the creativity of the students in the upper grades of the elementary school showed that all the 13 elements of curiosity, persistence, effectiveness, independence, adventurousness, openness, knowledge, imagination, originality, sensitivity, fluency, flexibility, and accuracy were statistically meaningfully different compared to the book report group. Third, when it was analyzed how the convergence reading education program using Book-Coding affected the creative personality of the elementary school students, all the six factors of curiosity, task commitment, independence, awareness of risk, and openness of thinking, and aesthetics were found out to have a statistically more meaningful difference than the group that wrote a book report.

Recently, the awareness of S/W education, which was confined to the profession, is changing due to the changing industrial environment based on ICT technology World main countries invest competitively in S/W education and the target age group is getting lower Among them, the unplugged coding method using the robot platform is known as one of the most effective S/W training methods targeting the elementary age by the intuitive coding method and the robot platform feedback. However, the unplugged coding method using the robot platform has a disadvantage that it can not configure various interfaces for complicated coding due to limitations of H/W. In this paper, we have proposed an unplugged coding system which can input various commands for robot control by IR remote control as an interface and minute signals using robot sensor.

The software education has many interest in the world because a lot of help to improve logical thinking and problem solving training. However, to implement such a program using languages such as C or Java, you should be aware of the syntax, understanding of computer architecture, and many library. So, it is difficult for many ordinary student to implement program. Therefore, we need easy access to the programming to address the life program by coding for students. In this paper, we introduce such useful software training program or Internet Web site for students.

This study has purpose on analyzing the error types which are identified after middle and high school students perform the online programming assignments and also has the purpose on the analysis of correlation between the frequency of error occurrence according to academic achievement level in programming concept learning and types of errors analyzed previously. For this study, the syntax, logical, and coding errors are analyzed from the performed results of programming research assignment for 88 students. Analyzed results show that the logical error has the highest occurrence rate of 69.3% among three types of errors, and it has been shown meaningful difference in the frequency of error occurrence between three achievement level groups of high, middle, and low. In the correlation analysis of achievement level and error types, it shows negative relationship between logical error and coding error, and therefore it can be concluded that as achievement level is higher, both logical and coding errors tend to occur less. In the correlation analysis in error types, it shows positive relationship between syntax error and coding error.

Various coding styles for C language have been proposed so far but there has been a lack of synthetic review about them. In this paper, I propose a new C coding style by analyzing coding rules that are included in the representative C coding styles and by adding new coding rules besides them. In addition, I designed an automated C coding style checker named CStyler which was implemented using Lex and Yacc. It is designed to be able to verify unpreprocessed source code as well as preprocessed source code. And I improved its flexibility by being able to add a new coding rule by end user. I think that the new C coding style and coding style checker, CStyler, can be utilized for education and for future research to develop and extend a static analysis tool.

In this study, we introduced the case of college calculus course for vocational high school graduates with coding. We suggest this case as an alternative to overcome mathematics anxiety. Contents, python/SageMath codes, and textbook for this course, which help students to easily and quickly review middle and high school mathematics, were newly developed by authors. Due to the use of codes and chat with classmates in learning management system, most of the students who took this course reported that they no longer felt anxious in complex mathematics problems, had a full understanding of calculus concepts, could solve almost problems in any calculus textbooks with or without codes, and could explain calculus concepts to other students in their own words. In this way if mathematics and coding is properly used in mathematics education, it helps students with weak mathematical backgrounds or mathematics anxiety to restore confidence in mathematics in college. This could be applicable in secondary mathematics education.
