  • 컴퓨터 사고를 이해하고 컴퓨터와 소통하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 본 연구의 목적은 컴퓨터 비전공자 대상으로 하는 강의의 목적성과 실효성을 규명하고, 나아가 학생과 강의자가 수업의 목표점의 접점을 찾아 나가는데 있다. 강의 대상은 컴퓨터 비전공자 학생 중 인문, 미술, 음악, 자연 계열의 학생들로서 그들이 현시점에서 이수한 교과과목 중 수학의 비중이 상대적으로 낮은 군에 속한다. 따라서 그들이 현실적으로 컴퓨터와 소통하기 위해 어떤 교육의 패러다임을 적용해야 하는가가 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 텍스트 코딩이 가능한 파이썬을 컴퓨터 비전공생에게 학습시키는 이유와 목적에 대해 밝히고 학습의 실효성에 대해 논의한다.

  • Recently, as the importance of computational thinking skills has increased, several schools have opened and operated software courses for all students. Software education aims to creatively solve various problems based on coding, but it is difficult to motivate non-major learners who do not have engineering knowledge or are not interested in the IT field. Motivation for learning plays an important role in improving learners' concentration and learning efficiency. In this paper, a method of motivating non-major learners for software subjects was studied and the results were evaluated through a questionnaire.

  • This study analyzed the relationship between the characteristics of learners and the achievement level according to the language they learn in programming education for non-major students. The learner's characteristics were set as mastery goal, situaltional interest, cognitive engagement, and self-efficacy for performance, and path analysis was conducted to understand the relationship between the language used and the learning achievement. Situaltional interest and cognitive engagement were found to have an effect on self-efficacy for performace, and self-efficacy for performance had an effect on academic achievement. At this time, the type of programming language to be studied showed a moderating effect on learning achievement. Based on the results of this study, it is suggested that appropriate instruction is needed for each language used in programming lessons for software non-majors.

  • In order to cultivate talented people who have problem solving ability due to computational thinking according to the trend of the fourth industrial revolution, each university is actively promoting software education. This study suggests that understanding-oriented SW curriculum is needed for non-majors students to improve computational thinking. In order to achieve the purpose of the study, this study designed the basic education program based on the understanding of the SW with the backward design model. The SW Basic Education Program was applied to 15 weeks of instruction and conducted three surveys. The positive effects of the understanding-oriented SW basic education on the computational thinking efficacy and the computer perception were verified. In addition, it was found that the understanding-oriented computational thinking and programming education are effective when they are linked to one process. It is expected that understanding-based SW based education, which uses the backward design model, can be applied as one of the efficient ways to improve computational thinking in the education field.

  • This study applied effective playful learning to increase the learning motivation of non-CS major students to help them achieve learning and to successfully operate online SW liberal arts classes for 560 students. As a result of analyzing the students' reflection journals, most of the students accepted the 'white radish' of dialect names as fun playful learning in the process of learning local variables and global variables. And they were surprised and amazed at discovering unexpected contents in our SW class. It was found that they experienced delight in learning, learning-flow, confidence, and intrinsic motivation. In the final term exam at the end of the semester, it was confirmed that the correct rate of 92% for questions related to local and global variables was higher than the average rate of other questions' correctness of 67.1%.

  • The ability to use software is an essential competency in modern society. As a result, programming education is conducted from elementary school to university. In case of programming education for non-majors conducted in the liberal arts at universities, if it is conducted online using high-quality contents, problems such as the shortage of professional professor and the limitation of practice time can be solved. Also, it has the advantage of providing students with enough time to think and solve problems. In this paper, the possibility of online lectures was investigated through a survey before and after lectures in software liberal arts courses conducted online. From the results of the survey, it is judged that the goal of software education can be achieved even if software lectures are conducted online, which is to improve computational thinking and problem-solving skills.

  • In this paper, we adjusted the feedback and learning materials for each learning based on ARCS motivation which applied DEVS methodology. We designed the ARCS professor-student model that expresses the continuous change in the student's attitude toward the class according to the student's attention, relevance, confidence, and satisfaction. It was applied to computational thinking and data analysis classes Based on the designed model. Before and after class, the students were asked the same question and then analyzed for each part of the ARCS. It was observed that students' perceptions of Attention, Relevance, and Satisfaction were improved except for Confidence. we observed that the students themselves felt that they lacked a lot of confidence compared to other ARS through the analysis. Although, Confidence showed a 13.5% improvement after class but it was about 33% lower than the average of other ARS. However, when it was observed that students' self-confidence was 30% lower than other motivational factors it was confirmed that the part that leads C to a similar level in other ARS is necessary.
