In this thesis, a survey was conducted on elementary school teachers about the establishment of information subjects in elementary schools. As a result, the opinion that information subjects should be newly established for ICT literacy education and SW/AI education in elementary schools was very high. In addition, if it is difficult to establish a new information subject, opinions in favor of the organization of the information subject as an autonomous subject using the discretionary time of the principal were high. In light of the results of this analysis, it is judged that it is necessary to establish a new information subject for ICT literacy education and SW/AI education in the next elementary school curriculum. However, if it is difficult to establish a new information course, it is necessary to come up with a plan that can be operated in the form of autonomous subject for students wishing to learn SW/AI. And it is judged that the number of class hours should be secured for at least 1 hour or 2 hours per week in the 3rd grade and above.

This study analyzes elementary school teachers' perception of Artificial Intelligence, educational effect, and necessity in education. To analyze teachers' perceptions, we developed questionnaires with expert advice. We collected questionnaires for 151 elementary school teachers. The collected data were analyzed by t-test and one-way ANOVA. As a result, AI' perceptions of female teachers were lower than those of male teachers and the necessity of education was less. Teachers with experience in leading schools recognized that AI education would help to improve creativity. Teachers who have a lot of teaching experience, many experience in SW education, the experience in SW education have a high interest in AI and understand the relevance of the subject. We expect that this study will help the direction of SW education.

With the introduction of AI education in the 2022 Revised Curriculum emphasizing the need for data related education, it is necessary to improve students' data based problem solving skills. This study seeks to study SW education methods to improve students' data based problem solving skills in accordance with these needs. Based on the ADDIE model, the demand analysis survey was conducted on teachers to analyze their needs. Based on the results of the demand analysis, we designed education programs under the theme of data based problem solving skills using microbit. In this study, we raise the importance of data based problem solving and the need for its capabilities. Subsequent studies need to reveal how data based problem solving SW education will demonstrate significant effects on problem solving skills.

인공지능과 소프트웨어가 중요한 역할을 하는 시대가 되었고, 이를 학생들에게 교육하여 미래의 AI/SW 인재를 양성하는 것에 많은 관심이 집중되고 있다. 해외 주요국에서는 이러한 시대적 흐름에 맞추어 AI/SW 분야의 인재 양성을 위해 노력하고 있으며, 국내에서도 여러 부처에서 관련된 다양한 정책을 시행하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 SW교육 관련 소셜미디어와 언론 데이터를 수집하고 이를 분석하여 국내 AI/SW교육에 대한 시사점을 제시하려고 한다. 이를 위해 2014년부터 2018년까지 총 5개년도의 데이터를 수집하고, 네트워크 분석 방법을 활용하여 연도별 SW교육의 흐름, 주요 등장 키워드, 연관 검색어들을 파악하였다. 이를 활용하여 미래의 AI/SW 교육 정책 수립 및 개선을 위한 시사점을 모색해보고자 한다.

In line with the social changes due to the Fourth Industrial Revolution, foreign countries are strengthening information education for the future of education. This study analyzed the current status of software (SW) and artificial intelligence (AI) education among different types of information education programs in elementary schools of major foreign countries, and compared them with the education provided in Korea. Compared to major foreign countries, Korea allocated very little time for software education in elementary schools, making it difficult to sufficiently cover all areas of the curriculum achievement standards. In addition, other countries recognized the importance of artificial intelligence, an important technology of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, and were providing artificial intelligence education on the basis of software education at the national level. The Korean government is also planning on providing the education at national level, but it was identified that the information education of elementary schools have many problematic issues. This study emphasized the need to establish an information curriculum for elementary schools as a way to address these issues.

With the advent of the 4th Industrial Revolution, AI utilization capabilities are being emphasized in various industries, but AI education design and curriculum research as universal education is currently lacking. This study offers a design for universal AI education to further cultivate its use in universities. For the AI basic education design, a questionnaire was conducted for experts three times, and the reliability of the derived design contents was verified by reflecting the results. As a result, the main competencies for cultivating AI literacy were data literacy, AI understanding and utilization, and the main detailed areas derived were data structure understanding and processing, visualization, word cloud, public data utilization, and machine learning concept understanding and utilization. The educational design content derived through this study is expected to increase the value of competency-centered AI universal education in the future.

The educational environment, where the change to blended learning and AI convergence education through non-face-to-face is accelerating, is based on the cultivation of digital literacy. This study attempted to verify the effectiveness of future competencies by creating a collaborative SW education program on the metaverse platform that emerged by supplementing the problems through non-face-to-face. Twenty programs on how to design and create software were organized for small-scale elementary classes in the metaverse. In order to verify the effectiveness 4C competency tool presented as future educational competency was selected, and homogeneity test for the experimental group and t-test were conducted. The results showed the SW education programs based on metaverse was effective in improving collaborative communication skills, confirming the possibility of SW education through blended learning.

The interest in artificial intelligence education in education is also high based on recent social interest in artificial intelligence. Accordingly, Korea is preparing a foothold for revitalizing artificial intelligence education in the future, such as announcing an artificial intelligence education plan by expanding from software (SW) education that has become a regular curriculum after the 2015 revised curriculum, and various studies are being conducted. However, research on the curriculum related to what and how to educate in artificial intelligence education is still in its infancy and further research is needed. A look at related research shows many similarities and differences in research related to domestic and foreign AI curriculum, because there are differences in the areas and content elements that each research focuses on. Therefore, in this study, in preparation for the future independence of the information subject and the formalization of AI education, literature studies on domestic and foreign AI curriculum are conducted, and based on this, the direction of the curriculum composition for elementary school AI education is to be explored.
