컴퓨터 프로그래밍 학습은 추상적인 개념을 이해하고 주어진 문제를 스스로 해결하도록 한다. 기존 초등학교 프로그래밍 교육에서 BASIC, C와 같은 절차적 프로그래밍 언어에 대한 연구는 많이 있지만 JAVA와 같은 객체지향 프로그래밍 언어를 통한 교육은 찾아보기 힘들다. 본 논문에서는 구조 중립적이며, 분산 인터넷 환경에 적합한 특성을 가지고 있는 객체지향 JAVA 프로그래밍 학습 시스템을 개발하여, 초등학교 학생들로 하여금 활용하도록 하였다. JAVA 학습 시스템 구현을 통한 객체지향 프로그래밍 교육은 초등학생들의 논리적 사고력을 향상시키고, 수학, 과학 과목의 학습 성취도에 긍정적인 영향을 준다는 것을 현장 학습 실험으로 확인하였다. 더불어 컴퓨터에 대한 흥미도가 상승하였다.

STEAM learning, which combined software with hardware, can greatly increase algorithm improvement, problem-solving skills, integrated thinking ability etc. and can ultimately improve learning attitude and academic achievement. In this study, we developed STEAM learning model so that 6th graders who can fully understand the basic concept of programming can learn subject contents of national textbooks (5 kinds) with programming that combined six sensors attached Sensor_board with Scratch and applied it to 6th grade class and analyzed the results. As a result, the STEAM learning tool that combined Scratch with Sensor_board was analyzed to be suitable for most elementary school students to be evaluated. In the achievement evaluation of learning, 39.5% of students obtained more than 7 points out of perfect 10 in the average achievement level of 5 subjects so most students evaluated were analyzed to obtain satisfactory achievement. Therefore, STEAM learning using Scratch and Sensor_board, hardware is considered to be more effective than existing software-centered ${\times}$learning using only software.

It is possible to increase integrated thinking and problem solving ability ultimately through STEAM education. This study developed STEAM model to apply to subjects and scratch knowledge education that sixth grade students in elementary schools can learn each subject through STEAM learning by applying scratch programming and it was applied and analyzed during regular classes and afterschool classes for sixth grade students. As a result, it was possible that about 70% of sixth grade students, the subject of model application were able to do STEAM learning initiatively by applying scratch program. Other 30% of the students were able to do STEAM learning partially through scratch. As for the achievement assessment of STEAM learning, it was evaluated that most of the students for the evaluation subjects got satisfactory achievement level by getting overall average 7.83 out of ten. Thus, it is considered that STEAM learning model by applying scratch is very superior that applying existing programming language such as C, BASIC etc.

Recently, universities have been strengthening software basic education to be active in the era of the fourth industrial revolution. Non-majored students need a variety of teaching methods because they have low knowledge of programming or a lack of connectivity with major courses. Therefore, in this paper, a learning model applying the step-by-step blind programming practice based on the Demonstration Modeling Making model was designed and applied to the actual lecture. As a result of analyzing the problem solving ability of the learner, it was confirmed that the learner's self - solving ratio increased as parking progressed. In the following study, it is necessary to analyze the learner's learning results in various aspects and to study effective teaching methods according to the difficulty of the learning contents.

In the fourth industrial revolution, the government has established a policy to cultivate the creative convergent talent with software literacy in order to cultivate human resources leading the economy. Therefore, software education based on computational thinking is being adopted in liberal arts courses in universities. However it would be damaged the fundamental objectives for increasing computational thinking by a weighted stress of students to learn programming of software education. In this paper, we proposed a teaching method that can improve computing thinking through information literacy education which can be directly applied in practice as a way to reduce the burden on the programming learning of software education. Through this paper, it was found that information literacy education can improve the computing thinking as well as the computing ability by making it possible to construct enough knowledge, analysis and efficient procedures for problems.

Computer Science Unplugged activities are activities to learn about computer science through learning tools other than programming programs. Existing unplugged activities focus on the procedural thinking process and focus on guiding the thinking process through play. There is a lack of research on unsupervised learning, which plays an important role in machine learning, which has recently attracted attention. In this study, we designed and conducted an unplugged activities for unsupervised learning that analyzes data using video media familiar to elementary school students. The results on the effectiveness of the class were analyzed using the bebras challenge. As a result of analyzing the scores of the pre-test and post-test, it was confirmed that the students' computational thinking and problem-solving ability improved.
