The 21st century computer education is very important for the future generations in the knowledge and information society. Therefore, developed countries that are the US, UK, and Germany, it is very important to find out how the computer education. In the US, the NETS and ACM K12 curriculum are investigated, In the UK and Germany national level computer curriculums are looked out. USA, UK, and Germany's curriculum includes computer science, information technology, digital literacy, and computer curriculum is independent, at least in the elementary schools computer education can be seen that more than 17 hours. After the revised national curriculum at 2015 is amended in korea. compared to the developed countries to derive the problems of the Korean revised national curriculum 2015. The revised 2015 Korean elementary school computer education, has no identity because it is not operated as an independent subject. Software will include education only. A very limited time of 17 hours may be a problem.

In the last few years, interest in computer science education has increased significantly. The curriculum is being revised to introduce computer science. Although interest has focused on coding as the main subject, in fact the computer science includes much more than coding. It engages people in being creative with technology as well as understanding the fundamental principles of computer science. Therefore, it is important to consider the curriculum to provide a foundation by teaching and learning computer science. The curriculum is required the development of courses to teach computer science for non-majors in general education. To think like a computer scientist on the knowledge of computer science is computational thinking. In order to maximize the effectiveness of teaching and learning for computational thinking, various teaching methods and supplementary learning materials, and activities should be developed and provided.

The importance of computer education has increased as a knowledge-based society develops. The national project for developing the industry of educational information will be ended by the year of 2000 From year 2001 on, the korean government plans to include computer education in Elementary and Middle-School Curricula. Teachers' colleges in Korea need to develop standardized teaching materials. These teaching materials may be used to teach a computer education class, plan a computer education curriculum, and do research on computer education teaching methods as well as computer education teaching materials. This study attempted to examine some aspects for developing teaching materials which we may use to teach pre-service teacher trainees in a teachers' college. The results of this study will help pre-service teacher trainees not only improve their ability of information literacy, but also obtain some techniques and strategies for teaching computer education in school.

All technology has both intended and unintended effects, we have said, and information technology is no exception. Information technology offers a number of challenges: those of computer education, computer literacy, the ethical and societal impacts of computing and communication systems. Current computer education focuses primarily on the history, parts and usage of a computer, and programming, it does not fully include the moral standards or ethics that help guide behavior and conduct for citizens of Information society. The purpose of this study is to review of the theoretical issues and societal impacts of computers, communication systems and computer ethics; then, to nalyse current curriculum and content of school computer education in Korea: finally, to develop a possible course in computer ethics containing a goal statement and aspects of computer literacy. Contents in computer ethics covers issues of nettiquette, privacy, health, copyright-related software and network piracy, computer crime and viruses. Six suggestions are made for the computer ethics of Information Age in the conclusion.

There have not been extensive studies on the objectives and contents for computer education, although the computer became a required subject in the 7th Curriculum. Since the success of education greatly depends on the established educational goals, it is important to set up refined objectives related to information communication technology and to educate children accordingly in a systematic way. In this respect, this paper analyses objectives of each elementary subject and curriculums of foreign schools, suggests new objectives for computer education, and discusses methods for selecting contents that are fit to the objectives. Our work can be used as a basis for conducting research on elementary computer education.

In this paper, I proposed a way of improving computer education in elementary, middle and high schools. I firstly analyzed the importance of computer education by researching an index of a national economic condition, People's IT use frequency and the demand for computer education by students and parents. Secondly, I researched the condition of computer education in elementary, middle and high schools. Finally, I analyzed problems of current computer education and proposed three way of improving computer education in elementary, middle and high schools.

The present study attempted to explore the possibility of improvement of the computer education curriculum in graduate school of education in Korea. This study compared the computer education curriculum in graduate school of education in Korea with the ICT PGCE in the UK. The results of the study are as follows: All 5graduate school of education regarded their role as producers of teachers and teacher re-trainers. It is necessary to identify characteristic educational curriculum by their different role. The courses for subject content were more important than those for subject pedagogy. The subject pedagogy such as teaching and learning theories related to the computer education should be selected more frequently as the subject content. The course mainly consisted of only four weeks field experience. For potential computer teachers, it should be emphasized to practice fields works in schools.

As computer is diffused in society widely, it is desired that we investigate on computer uses in school education. In this paper, Possibility of Micro computer uses in mathematics education is investigated. Educational computing is classified roughly three categories they are CAI CMI and Computer iteracy education. CAI is discussed at this place. Firstly, programs of mathematics educational computing is introduced and they are classified into Practicing, Tutoring, Simulating, Gaming, Demonstration, Informing. Next, the problems that we must notice in mathematics educational computing are indicated. They are computer language, development of soft ware, effectiveness of CAI etc...

Recently, the Ministry of education science and technology announced a revised information and communication technology curriculum, emphasizing aspects of computer science education rather than application of computer softwares. This change would benefit students to stimulate their thinking ability and facilitate creativity learning through in-depth understanding of principles of computer science, compared to the previous curriculum of computer education mainly focused on the skills of utilizing application softwares. Thus, the paper presents the design of a computer education curriculum based on the principles of computer science education, which would lead to trigger constructive ideas for improvements on the subject so that students may experience better education in the area.
