In the SW education of non-majors who encounter liberal arts education experience difficulties in the SW development environment and understanding they encounter for the first time, relevance to their major, and convergence thinking ability. In order to compensate for the difficulties of non-major learners in liberal arts education, a relatively easily accessible software was used to utilize a demonstration-oriented model that can be applied to beginners in SW education. In order to understand the logical flow of applications and problem solving used in real life, we proposed a convergence SW teaching method that combines repeated implementation through demonstration by the instructor and imitation of the learner, and learning indicators to increase the learning satisfaction and achievement of the learner. In the experiment applying the teaching and learning method proposed in this paper, meaningful results were shown when evaluating the learning effect, academic achievement, learning satisfaction, and teaching and learning method aspects of SW education.

In recent years, international cooperation has become important not only at the humanitarian level but also at the socio-economic level. As a result, major foreign countries are increasing capital-intensive international cooperation. In this environment, Korea needs to look for differentiated international cooperation plans centered on sustainable talent cultivation and move away from capital-based international cooperation. In this study, we analyzed the case of HRD (Human Resource Development) center in Cambodia as an international cooperation model between industry-academia-college for training software (SW) workforce. The HRD Center in Cambodia is an educational institution that fosters SW talent and can be viewed as an international cooperation model that can influence the ICT industry in Cambodia as an educational platform. In fact, 190 people who have been hired so far have entered various fields. 97% of graduates have been satisfied with HRD center and 90% of them are willing to recommend the center. In particular, as highlighted in the case study, the HRD Center has had a positive effect on not only cultivating self-initiated learning-based SW talent, but also formulating positive image of Korea and Korean companies thereby facilitating entry into the global market. The HRD Center in Cambodia has developed a virtuous cycle of fostering human resources, providing education, advancing industry and building a cooperative network. Korea has transformed into a platform for international cooperation and human resource development and education by providing active support and aid. This case study will be utilized as a new model of international cooperation with SW expert training platform for Korea.

The purpose of this study is to find out the perception of parents in order to develop a software education program for elementary students convergence with English. A survey was administered to 120 parents asking perceptions about SW education in schools and preferences about English-SW convergence programs for their elementary school children. The results shows that the parents think the current 17 hours of SW education provided at elementary schools is not enough and also they hoped the education started at an earlier grade than the current 5th·6th graders. Most parents perceived English is helpful in SW education and answered strongly for the need of English-SW convergence programs. A two-week program with the ratio of 6(SW):4(English) was the most preferred according to the study. As for regional differences, the parents in Seoul and Gyeonggi Province wanted SW education as after-school programs in elementary schools whereas, parents in Chungcheong Province expected SW education programs be provided from near-by universities. It is hoped that with the results of this study various English-SW education programs are developed and operated.

As software(SW) has been considered as a key driver of the fourth industrial revolution, significant R&D investment has been made by Korean government. Despite the attention and support by the government, systematic analysis on the SW R&D efficiency has not been fully addressed. In this study, the efficiency of SW national research and development projects was analyzed using Data Envelopment Analysis(DEA) techniques. Efficiency was measured from both static and dynamic perspectives based on 1,463 projects conducted by the National IT Industry Promotion Agency(NIPA) from 2008 to 2018. The static efficiency analysis identified the causes of inefficiency as scale and technology problems. As a result of dynamic efficiency analysis, we present a sector-specific response model using an efficiency-stability matrix. This study is meaningful in that efficiency analysis was conducted on the entire SW national R&D project, and static/dynamic efficiency analysis results are expected to be used as a guideline for planning SW national R&D project.

Rapid changes in modern society after the COVID-19 have highlighted artificial intelligence talent as a major influencing factor in determining national competitiveness. Accordingly, the Ministry of Education planned a large-scale SW·AI camp education project to develop the digital capabilities of 4th to 6th grade elementary school students and middle and high school students who are in a vacuum in artificial intelligence education. Therefore, this study aims to develop a camp-type SW·AI education program for students in grades 4-6 of elementary school so that students in grades 4-6 of elementary school can acquire basic knowledge in artificial intelligence. For this, the meaning of SW·AI education in elementary school is defined and SW·AI contents to be dealt with in elementary school are: understanding of SW AI, 'principle and application of SW AI', and 'social impact of SW AI' was set. In addition, an attempt was made to link the set elements of elementary school SW AI education and learning with related subjects and units of textbooks currently used in elementary schools. As for the program used for education, entry, a software coding learning tool based on block coding, is designed to strengthen software programming basic competency, and all programs are designed to be operated centered on experience and experience-oriented participants in consideration of the developmental characteristics of elementary school students. In order for SW·AI education to be organized and operated as a member of the regular curriculum, it is suggested that research based on the analysis of regular curriculum contents and in-depth analysis of SW·AI education contents is necessary.

In this paper, we propose the elementary school teacher's training direction for effective SW education. In an effort to better understand the efficient SW training contents and methods for teachers, 200 of elementary teachers had been selected from different places in South Korea. The results showed that 1)it should be operated by focusing on the training of female teachers, especially, strengthening the contents of SW ethics. 2)It will need to actively operate the teacher training program to foster the necessary computational thinking and programing for elementary school teacher who work in big cities. 3)It need to create a training program for expanding the SW studying groups. 4)In order to improve the effectiveness of training courses in the development of in-service training programs, the SW ethics contents need to be coordinated with the link the computational thinking and programing. These results are expected to provide the efficient methods to design the future SW training programs.
