Abstract

As future society will be strengthened by interdisciplinary study and education, we have to prepare general education curriculum which provide critical thinking, problem-solving, creativity, communication abilities. Those curriculum will help to nurture students who lead our future society. Now we prepare new curriculum to train students to understand the computer science and software needed to create their own, and we could cultivate students having ability to create interdisciplinary study by using programming skill. So we ran a computer programming class during a semester for the freshmen's capacity building on computing-thinking ability using the Python language. We analyzed the effectiveness and showed that student's curiosity and motivation to want to learn computer programming occurred, their various skills for interdisciplinary ability were improved.

학문 간의 융합 현상이 더욱 더 강화될 미래 사회에서 살아남는 인재를 양성하기 위해서는 대학의 교양교육과정에서 융합인재로서 갖추어야 할 융합 역량들을 배양할 수 있는 교양교육과정을 제공하는 것이 바람직하다. 지금까지 대학 교양 IT교육 교과에서 이미 만들어진 소프트웨어를 활용하는 방법을 강의하고 실습하도록 구성하여 제공하였지만, 미래 사회를 이끌어 갈 창의적인 융합 인재들에게 필요한 것은 컴퓨터과학을 이해하고 자신들이 필요한 소프트웨어를 만들어 내는 능력을 훈련하는 교과과정이다. 그래서 교양 IT교육과정에서 컴퓨팅적 사고능력 배양을 위하여 프로그래밍 교육을 시행하였다. 프로그래밍 언어로는 파이썬을 활용하였다. 신입생대상 프로그래밍 교육을 통하여 얻을 수 있는 교육효과를 분석하여, 융합인재가 갖추어야 할 사고력, 문제해결능력, 창의력, 의사표현능력, 자기 주도적 학습능력이 향상되었음을 보였다.
