Images in the textbooks influence the learning process. Students often see pictures before reading the text and these pictures can enhance the power of imagination of the students. The findings of some researches show that the images in textbooks can increase students' creativity. However, when learning major subjects, reading a textbook or looking at a picture alone may not be enough to understand the topics and completely realize the concepts. Studies show that viewers remember 95% of a message when watching a video than reading a text. If we can combine textbooks and videos, this teaching method is fantastic. The "TEXT + IMAGE + VIDEO (Animation)" concept could be more beneficial than ordinary ones. We tried to give our solution by using machine learning Image Classification. This paper covers the features, approaches and detailed objectives of our project. For now, we have developed the prototype of this project as a web app and it only works when accessed via smartphone. Once you have accessed the web app through your smartphone, the web app asks for access to use the camera. Suppose you bring your smartphone's camera closer to the picture in the textbook. It will then display the video related to the photo below.

In this paper, we examine the different viewpoints of teachers and undergraduates on middle school informatics textbook. For this research, a survey is conducted on middle school informatics teachers and undergraduates who are preparing the state examination for informatics-computer teachers. Items of the survey were chosen to investigate the level of completion on the contents and structure of the textbook and to examine overall satisfaction with the textbook. Seven items concerning the level of completion are based on national textbook authorization criteria. A t-test was performed to analyze meaningful difference in perception of textbook between the teacher and student groups. The result shows there is meaningful difference on two items which are 'compliance with informatics curriculum' and 'content selection and organization'.

The purpose of this study is to define the teachers' perception for technology leadership when utilizing the Digital Textbook (DT). The subjects of this study were 97 elementary school teachers (40 males and 57 females) working in digital textbook research schools that implemented digital textbooks in 2009. Needs assessment instrument was revised based on previous instruments. Perception was calculated using Borich formula. According to the results, teachers of digital textbook research schools recognized 'teachers' instructional methods' as the most important area, while the least recognized area was 'support by the school'. The highest technology leadership needs by categories included 'role setting between members when implementing digital textbooks', 'instructional methods to cultivate creativity when using digital textbooks', 'troubleshooting digital textbook problems', 'additional staff support in case of problems', 'development of various assessment tools for measuring the effect of the digital textbook', and 'support of digital textbook resources for students with disabilities'. Based on these results, the study proposed specific methods to enhance technology leadership for the successful introduction of digital textbooks in schools.

This study is done to compare and to analyze middle school Informatics textbooks developed according to 2007 revised national curriculum. In this paper, suggestions are made for improvement on Informatics textbooks. Textbooks were analyzed based on two criteria, in framework and content, and collected data were analyzed according to Content Analysis method. As a result of analysis, a framework of textbooks showed differences in the entire construction, discipline-specific weight, content developing structure, and types of assessment, and content of textbooks showed differences in the concepts and the kinds of programming language. Six improvements in developing Informatics textbook from the results of content analysis were suggested and this will be helpful in developing the Infomatics textbook in the future.

This study is to suggest a method of constructing Informatics textbook considering the cognitive development level of middle school learners. We developed 3 types of learning content models according to the educational objectives and activities of learners and then suggested the methods of constructing textbook. For this, we reviewed the related research results on the development characteristics and cognitive development theories of middle school students. Second, we drew instructional schemes from the pedagogic theories. Then, we suggested 3 models: 'Learning Centered on Concept'. 'Learning Centered on Investigation', and ' learning Centered on Actual Training'. We suggested construction schemes to each model and verified the adequacy using questionnaire to 30 teachers and received the positive responses from most teachers.

In this paper, we propose a analysis of electric and electronic's unit in paratical arts and convergence education program to enhance computational thinking. In the current practical arts curriculum of Korean elementary school 6th graders, the 'information' related chapter is Chapter 3. However, educational contents mainly consist of making activities according to the specified manual such as electrical and electronic products, learning about robots, etc. It is very insufficient to develop the computational thinking required by the software-centered society. Therefore, we are to study development of convergence education program of the 'Life and Electricity Electron' unit in practical arts textbook to enhance computational thinking.

This study aims to compare and analyse computer curriculum and textbooks of South Korea and North Korea in order to provide the basis for unifying the Informatics Education. Result of this study follows : First, there isn't any course for Informatics Education in the elementary school but it was requisitely carried 2 hours per week in secondary school in North Korea. But contents of curriculum is much different according to the level of school : genius secondary school, first secondary school, general secondary schol. In especially, Informatics Education had centered in genius secondary school. Second, in comparison of computer textbooks used in South and North Korea, we found that most contents of South Korea textbook was selected equally from all scope whereas those in North Korea were not contained the newest contents(e.g. Internet, Multimedia). But in contrast to South Korea textbook, there was BASIC programing course for improving problem-solving skills in North Korea textbook.
