In order to respond to changing educational environment in terms of Information education, in 2010 year, "New Growth Strategy Conference" was held and "New Strategy in Information and Communications Technology" was announced, instructional system was made up through the research "The Vision for ICT in Education" in 2011 year. In particular, elementary schools is doing Computer Science Education in connection with general subjects, it means that preparation process for secondary education in terms of Computer education which is started in earnest. These Computer Education in Japan imply the further ways of Computer Education in Korea which are instructional system linked with Elementary school and Secondary school and computer education based on informatics.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the differences of elementary and middle school students' ICT literacy by their computer use and information(computer) educational experiences. For this purpose, this study implemented ICT literacy test for students in 300 elementary (4th~6th)- and 300 middle(7th~9th) schools in 2015. The ICT literacy test was composed of two components of 'literacy ability elements' and 'literacy content elements.' The main results of this study are as follows. First, in both of elementary and middle schools, there are positive relationships between students' 'computer use at home' and 'computer outside school,' and their ICT literacy test scores, but their extreme computer use affected their ICT literacy test scores negatively. Second, in both of elementary and middle schools, there are positive relationships between students' information(computer) educational experiences and their ICT literacy test scores.

As we have entered into the 21st century knowledge and information society, the necessity of computer education has emerged and even its expectation is getting bigger. In spite of that, the present computer education neglects computer programming education which may be the basis of information, as understanding it only as the ability to utilize computer that deals with the usage of application program. Through the programming experience, students are likely tn understand abstract concepts on computer hardware, and to acquire knowledge needed tn solve problems given to them through computer. In this paper, on the basis of the significance and necessity in programming education, using a questionnaire, analyzed the necessity in programming education based upon responses of elementary school teachers to investigate the recognition analysis of elementary school teachers about programming education in elementary schools.

Information and knowledge society in the 21st century computer education is very important. Until now, much research on computer applications in education and training in computer literacy are a lot of self-efficacy scales have been developed. However, the development of students' creativity and reasoning to computer literacy education is more important than education is a computer programming language. And self-efficacy for teaching computer programming language developed measures insufficient. Therefore, in this study, self-efficacy for teaching computer programming language developed scale. This measure is a computer that can be programmed to target elementary school students were investigated. The results of computer programming education for elementary school children who are higher in the self-efficacy. The results of this study are that elementary school students when teaching computer programming that is very reasonable results.

Recently, Internet utilization ratio of elementary school students is urgently increasing. On the other hand, elementary school students are not doing personal information management properly in the Internet. As a result, it is causing problem of information leakage. In this paper, we proposed a instructional learning method to teach importance of personal information management to an elementary school student. Proposed method is based on role-play instructional learning method. And applied to the third-year class in elementary school. We show that proposed method is effect in education than traditional teaching method about personal information management's importance.

In this paper, to instruct elementary programming concepts based on flowchart programming for elementary school students, we proposed sensor-based elementary robot programming PBL problems using line-tracer robots. Proposed PBL problems are designed to have various correct-answer algorithms. For this purpose, we present PBL-based robot programming instruction steps. Through applying the proposed sensor-based PBL problems using line-tracer robots, experimental results are analyzed in views of the problem-solving ability and suitability of allocating degrees of difficulties to the proposed elementary robot programming problems.

This study was aimed to assess the degree of addiction on computer games and find factors related to game addiction, health perception and health promoting behavior in elementary school students. A study subjects were 814 students in 5th and 6th grades at 4 elementary schools in a city and a county. The items in questionnaire was consisted of general characteristics, circumstances and habits related to utilization of computer and internet game playing, and degree of addiction, health perception and health promoting behavior. We analyzed data using chi-square test, t-test, ANOVA, and multiple regression analysis. In multiple regression analysis, addictiveness on internet game was significantly related to type of computer utilization, frequency and duration of internet game playing, gender, after-school activities, grade points, economical status, and location of computer in a house. Health perception was significantly related to addiction points, gender, residential area, and grade points. And health promoting behavior was significantly related to addiction points, grade level, grade points, and health perception points. Since health promoting behaviors of children in elementary school are in the way of making, their degree of addiction to computer games can greatly influence their attitude towards health and their future life pattern as adults. Therefore an educational prevention program including counselling on game addiction should be devised. And researches will be needed for developing the Korean standard for measuring degree of addiction and a prevention program for peer group's game addiction.

The purpose of this study is to develop a computer-assisted nutrition counseling program for dietitians in elementary school foodservice. The program consists of four menus. The first menu is to assess the general status of the body, such as ideal body weight, obesity index, and physical development based on age, sex, height, and weight. The second menu is a dietary analysis program with respect to the Korean recommended dietary allowance. The third menu can be used for nutrition counseling to give suggestions about food habits and physical activities. The fourth menu is the data printing function to give consultations for clients which can be used for monitoring. This program can help dietitiants to provide nutrition counseling in the practice of elementary school food service.

After the computer education become essential in elementary school, computer subject which was absorbed by the other subjects is educating in independent way. However, since the contents of computer education in elementary school is based on the ICT literacy education, sequential disconnection problem appears between elementary school and secondary school computer education curriculum. Therefore, information ethics education that is one part of computer education also has same problems. To solve these problems of information ethics education, it is necessary to set the goal of information ethics education that should be educated through the whole courses of elementary and secondary school and to reorganize the contents. In this study, we analyzed the contents of information ethics education included in ICT literacy education and computer curriculum, and analyzed the contents of information ethics education included in U.S. computer curriculum. Based on these analysis, we designed a curriculum model for information ethics education in computer education.
