When we are teaching the programming education, it is very useful if we show that a flow chart generate automatically owing to a written out of the program. In this paper, we introduce the method of a flow chart generating from the simple imperative language for the While program. After the While program is translated by the Flow Chart Language program, it is generated automatically by making use of the java graphic library. Taking advantage of our results of the study, beginners can understand the flow of the program easily.

SW 교육에 있어서 입문자의 흥미를 유발하고자 블록 기반인 스크래치와 엔트리가 도입되었고 많은 교육 기관에서는 이후 ARDUINO, C, JAVA, PYTHON 등을 선택 교육하고 있다. 이 과정에서 코딩보다는 사고력을 강조하며 정보 교과 내에서 문법 공부하는 것을 기피하는 풍토를 보인다. 이러한 점은 2015 개정 교육과정 지침에서 특정 언어의 기능습득에 치우치지 않고 학습자의 수준에 맞추어 적절한 도구를 선택하도록 하여 사실상 교수자의 재량에 두고 있는 점에서도 파악할 수 있다. 코딩의 문법학습을 피하는 경향은 코딩교육 도입 초기의 취지와는 다르게 공교육 내에서의 코딩교육의 활성화에 부정적 요소로 작용할 여지가 크다고 우려된다. 따라서 현재 출판된 정보 교과서에서 다루는 프로그래밍 언어의 종류를 조사하고 코딩 문법학습을 최소화를 할 수 있으며 블록코딩에서 텍스트 코딩으로 전환 시 학습자의 부담을 감소할 수단으로 PROCESSING를 통한 과정을 제안하는 바이다.

ChatGPT significantly broadens the application of artificial intelligence (AI) services across various domains, with one of its primary functions being assistance in programming and coding. Nevertheless, due to the short history of ChatGPT, there have been few studies analyzing its coding capabilities in Korean higher education. In this paper, we evaluate it using exam questions from three foundational programming courses at S University. According to the experimental results, ChatGPT successfully generated Python, C, and JAVA programs, and the code quality is on par with that of high-achieving students. The powerful coding capabilities of ChatGPT imply the need for a strict prohibition of its usage in coding tests; however, it also suggests significant potential for enhancing practical exercises in the educational aspect.

Recently, the perception of software education, which had been considered as a field of education for programmers in this field, is changing in response to recent changes with the trend of 4th industrial revolution. Major counties competitively invest in software education and the target age group for software education is also on the decline. However, the traditional text-based programing languages such as JAVA and Python, have a high entry barrier. To address the shortcoming, a variety of methods have been recently proposed for the effective software education for kindergarten and elementary school student. In this paper, we propose a robot-based coding education system with steps for coding education for effective software education. The proposed method is divided into three stages, depending on the level of the student being trained in the software coding education to interact with robots. The proposed stages consists of unplugged coding using a remote control, coding using a graphic-based programming language and text- based coding. We conducted an experiment with performing separate missions while providing propoer tutorials for each stage to verify the effectiveness of the proposed software education system.

Virtual Robot Education System (VRES), which is for programming education with a Lego Mindstorm NXT robot, is designed and implemented. Through this system, program learners can edit source code, compile, download it into the robot, and run their executive program. In order to observe it, the system includes web cameras and provide monitoring services. Thus, students are able to verify the operation of robot into which they download their program in detail and to debug if necessary. In addition, we design a new simple user-friendly programming language and a corresponding compiler for it. With those tools, learner can more easily create programs for NXT robot and test them than Java language. A educator can control and manage the robot for the subject of a class with direct control mode of our system. Therefore, the proposed system is able to support students to learn robot programming during or after regular classes with web browsers through Internet.

Many people are showing interest on computing and computer programming ever as much as the smartphone become more popular. Computer programming languages, however, like Java or C++ being used to teach freshmen in computer science-related majors as the first programming language they will study are so difficult to understand. In this paper, we proposed a short-term curriculum for teaching computer programming using App Inventor for Android to freshmen students major in computer science as the first programming language they will study, which can encourage their interest in computer programming. According to survey from students participated in actual teaching, we found that the proposed curriculum can contribute to increase their interest on computer programming and even self-confidence on development of applications for smarphone.

There has been a growing interest in programming education recently. However, to use most programming languages the corresponding compiler and IDE have to be installed on computers. To tackle this issue, though there developed several web-based programming environment including Eclipse Che and JDOODLE, most of them does not support GUI nor Korean programming languages. This paper proposes a web-based programming environment called Bombart, which supports Saesark, a Korean programming language, with GUI output. It also supports a console-based input and output. To support both kinds of interfaces, two compiling subsystems are designed and implemented. To test the effectiveness of the GUI support of Bombart, all the Java tutorial codes on GUI are translated into Saesark and executed on top of Bombart. According to this test, 81.42% of codes can be successfully converted and executed.

The global impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on education has resulted in the near-complete closure of schools, early childhood education and care (ECEC) facilities, universities, and colleges. To help the educational system with social distancing during this pandemic, in this paper the creation of a simple 3D virtual tour will be of a great contribution. This web cyber tour will be program with JavaScript programming language. The development of this web cyber tour is to help the students and staffs to have access to the university infrastructure at a faraway distance during this difficult moment of the pandemic. The drone and matterport are the two devices used in the realization of this website tour. As a result, Users will be able to view a 3D model of the university building (drone) as well as a real-time tour of its inside (matterport) before uploading the model for real-time display by the help of this website tour. Since the users can enjoy the 3D model of the university infrastructure with all angles at a far distance through the website, it will solve the problem of Covid-19 infection in the university. It will also provide students who cannot be present on-site, with detailed information about the campus.

This paper presented a virtual manufacturing simulation system by using Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML) and Finite Element Method(FEM). The system is to simulate forging operation. Stress distributions and deformation profiles as well as the operation of forging machine can be simulated and visualized in the web. Since the forging machine, user interface, and specimen were modeled by using Java and VRML, the forging machine and analysis results were browsed and integrated on the web that is interfaced to users through EAI to show the whole forging simulation. The developed system realized the working environment virtually so that education and experiment of forging process could be performed effectively even on the PC.

Scratch-based programming has come to be known as an effective programming tool because of its graphic instruction modules, which are designed to be assembled like the famous LEGO building blocks. These building block-like structures allow users to more easily program applications without using other more difficult programming languages such as C or Java, which are text-based. Therefore, it poses a good opportunity for application in educational settings, especially in primary schools. This paper presents an effective approach to developing an educational robot for use in elementary schools. Furthermore, we present the method for scratch programming based on the external modules need for the implementation of robot motion. Lastly, we design a systematic curriculum, titled "Play with a Robot," and propose guidelines to using the educational programming language Scratch.
