  • Many researchers in the 21st century has found that robot education is effective to develop the learners' creativity and problem-solving ability. However, the robot education can only be applied to the students whose computer skills are high. Also it can be taught in the well-prepared computer classroom. Students have to learn machine language to control their robots, and robots are controlled by different types of software. Therefore this study has constructed command-based programming blocks to do a robot programming without computers. It also presents a prototype of the programming process and a technological method to combine the command and the programming blocks. We used the blocks which are similar with something in flow chart: to support intuition, and to help students transfer what they learned. And types of blocks and details are described for the Robot Programing Education. Combination of command blocks is made by RS-485 connection method and, it is designed to intercommunicate with connected blocks. It also presents a prototypes: of the programming process using designed command blocks, and of the possibility of Unplugged Robot Education System.

  • In this paper, as a new educational cooperation model, seeking the problems and the directions of progress on GPOE(Gyeonggi Provincial Office of Education)'s innovational education district project, recognizing the various points of issue of SVHS(specialized vocational high schools) faced now, suggesting the contents and standards of the program as measures of enhancing competitiveness of SVHS, analyzing the strengths and weaknesses of project of innovational education district and finding the plans for progress. According to the result of the advanced study and analysis, it shows that the aid as well as the supporting object of helping the SVHS's students find a job don't reach a certain level. As the aid supports across the general elementary and secondary schools, it tends to show much more emotional software-based support required by elementary school, middle school and general high school as universal education welfare rather than hardware-based support required by SVHS. Despite the competent evaluation on the survey about the supporting method from SVHS's parents teachers and students, the survey includes that teachers who ask the balancing support are increasing, some students suspect its effect of education and some parents as a residential position ask the regional growth rather than education So there are a lot of confusions among the teachers, students and parents yet. To overcome these problems, we ensure the internal stability of local education community and GPOE and local government get out large scale constructions with trust and belief to make a revolution of public education in supporting the administrative task and finance and to accomplish the program that best suits our SVHS's state to be supported without dividing educational software and hardware, should reflect the demand of field by for expert group being built and attended when build the local revolution community. Also plan to make full use of local human and property infrastructure should be added. To this end, as programs to build a pool of guest lecturers are provided to teachers who carry out innovative education programs, we seek the reformations to give students opportunities to widen participation in other school programs.

  • Computers are played an important tole of knowledge-information society in 21C. Computer education have made successful progresses since the 7th curricula have one class of ICT per week. However, public schools have instructed computer literacy education teaching only how to use application software. To give useful knowledges students could use for several decades, we need to have them to concentrate on education to information logical thinking power rather than simple manipulation of application softwares. However, teachers don't understand well about the "Understanding of Information Processing". In this paper, we carried out a survey that how much teachers understand about the information processing comprehension among the information and communication technology guide. We also state problems and propose improvement plan.

  • In this paper, we analyzed and suggested an educational strategy and features for project-based learning in smart learning environment. Smart learning environment is different of e-learning environment, therefore the educational strategy for smart learning is needed. In this paper, we conducted project-based learning for elementary school students in smart learning environment, and we analyzed the difference between a normal project-based learning and a project based learning in smart learning environment and suggested the educational strategy and the considerations through questionnaire, interview, and observation, Furthermore, we figured out factors that affected educational satisfaction of student. As a result, students thought that there is difference of smart project-based learning in some factors: technology and devices, software, and participation for learning. Also, we found main factors to affect educational satisfaction are two factors: technology and devices, and always-on.

  • In a rapidly changing society with the Fourth Industrial Revolution, future students should have the skills to utilize and organize high-quality knowledge, not the amount of knowledge. With the launch of the revised curriculum in 2015, the curriculum has been reorganized based on competency and the software education has been seeking capabilities such as 'Cultural computing knowledge', 'Computational thinking', and 'Collaborative problem solving skills'. Therefore, practical collaboration tools and education programs that can be used in the field of education are developed based on Pair Programming, which is a specific collaborative learning strategy to develop cooperative problem solving skill. The educational program using this collaboration tool was developed with a focus on developing computational thinking and collaborative problem solving skills through Pair Programming rather than focusing on learning grammar of programming language and programming techniques. In a educational program, students will be able to use collaborative tools for pair programming and foster collaborative problem-solving skills.

  • Since the entering SW-centered society in which people make the best use of SW in order to express their own personal ideas or to solve problems, the significance of SW education has been emphasized. It is generally known that storytelling provides motivational and contextual environments. This study conducted an experimental research to find out how Aesop's fables-applied SW educational program would influence computational thinking. Of these students who had participated in an SW educational camp on every Saturday for a total of 6 weeks, the experimental group learned on basic concepts of Scratch programming as working on Aesop's fables and they were led to diverse SW activities such as stories, games, simulations arts, and others. After that, the study carried out a comparison research in relation to the groups' SW concepts, SW implementation and attitudes toward SW education. The result shows that the experimental group came up with higher levels of SW concepts, implementation and positive attitude toward SW education.
