As the SW-centered society has emerged, SW-based problem-solving capabilities is emphasized in all areas of society. It is a trend that universities are obliged to do SW basic education for non-majors students and they are carrying out programming education. This study derives grammatical elements based on conciseness, generality, and efficiency among the design principles of programming language and based on it, compares and analyzes visual programming language and diagramming language. As a result, the efficiency of Raptor is more powerful than Scratch in the simplicity and generality, and the same tendency can be confirmed in the result of the learner's obtained in programming lesson. We hope that this study will contribute to the design and implementation of programming education based on features of programming language.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to identify the effects of sign language video location in e-learning system for the hearing-impaired. Background: E-learning education is a good way to resolve the inequality of education for the disabled. Providing a sign language video in e-learning education for the hearing-impaired is very important for their learning. Although the location of sign language video is an important factor in the design of the video, the effect of its location in learning using the e-learning system was not studied. Method: In order to identify the effect of sign language video location on the learning of the hearing-impaired using the e-learning system, the prototypes of the system with different locations were developed. Eighteen people with hearing impairment participated in this experiment. Learning presence, learning immersion, and learning satisfaction were used to measure learning effects with sign language video location. Results: Bottom right position was more preferred through preference evaluation for sign language video location. The learning effect with sign language video location (bottom-left and bottom-right) was not significant. That is, the effects of learning presence, immersion, and satisfaction were not statistically significant with video location. Conclusion: From this study, the following have to be considered in e-learning system design for the hearing-impaired. Although the location of a sign language video is not a significant factor from the experiment, the bottom right position in the design is proposed because learning presence and satisfaction is slightly higher at the bottom right position, and the position is preferred from subjective evaluation. From the analysis of interview data, it was also proposed that the design of a sign language video should be improved for the hearing-impaired. Application: The result of this study can be applied to the e-learning system design for the hearing-impaired.

The purpose of this study is to draw the elements of encouraging language from the literatures of encouragement and develop the encouraging language model for elementary school teachers. To achieve this, first of all, the literatures about the methods of encouragement were collected. And then the collected literatures were categorized according to the main concept which each literature contained. As a result, 5 categories and 17 subcategories were drawn. 5 categories were valuing a child as a human-being itself, trusting a child, thinking rationally about a child's mistakes, giving a feedback about a child's behaviors non-evaluatively, and reflecting a child's positive feeling. These 5 categories were established as the elements of encouraging language. The encouraging language model was developed on the bases of the 5 elements of encouraging language. The model was constructed of the examples of encouraging language in various classroom situations. The model contains various situations which elementary school teachers often confront in their classrooms. And the model shows the examples of encouraging language proper for each situation. Every example was constructed on the bases of the elements of encouraging language.

The main aim in software education is to improve problem-solving ability based on computational thinking with the healthy information ethics. For this purpose, many institutions have attempted various educational programs such as Educational Programming Language, Physical Computing, and Robot education. However, it is possible to obscure the essence of computer education for computational thinking if the computer education focuses on using certain special education programming language and products. Therefore, this paper suggests a method of algorithm education using RAPTOR which is a visual programming development environment and is based on flowcharts. In order to verify the effectiveness of the algorithms education using the RAPTOR, 16 high-school students were applied to an educational program for twelve hours on five steps and then we obtained positive results.

Programming novices have various difficulties when they learn C language for the first time. Novices have a large burden for understanding of a C language grammar, and have a tendency to focus on the grammar rather than problem solving. Moreover, it requires programming domains to arouse student's interest for software development. This paper presents a programming environment for C languages education focusing on a problem solving. To this end, this paper defines Tiny-VPL that is a simple visual programming language for NXT robot programming and presents robot programming environment using Tiny-VPL. This paper also presents an environment for NXT robot programming using Mini-C language which is a subset of C language. For the purpose of helping to understand the C syntax and semantics, the visual and interactive conversion system of Tiny-VPL to Mini-C is provided. Our programming environment can arouse student's interest through robot programming and can be used effectively for C language education focusing on problem solving with graphical and interactive conversion of the visual language Tiny-VPL to the textual language Mini-C.

In this study, it is necessary to supplement the Korean language curriculum in order for international students to adapt and settle in Korea in an era where education is being transformed into future education due to the 4th industry. In the KFL (Korean as a Foreign Language) situation encountered by international students, they suffer from difficulties in university mathematics due to communication problems due to lack of language ability, which is one of the stress factors for cultural adaptation in the Korean language education program. To solve this problem, we analyzed ESL programs in English-speaking countries and KSL programs in Korea to set educational goals, curriculum, and educational methods to achieve goals for international students, and to establish curriculum and learning processes. Therefore, the Korean language education program (KSL program) for foreign students in the Korean language curriculum should also be supplemented by accepting the advantages of setting accurate goals for the ESL program and linking it with university graduation in the curriculum of English-speaking countries. In addition, for international students to learn Korean, an integrated Korean language education course and management system using IT suitable for the 4th industrial age is needed.
