Abstract

Robotics education in elementary school, It is difficult for girls to continue the motivation and willingness to learn because of a negative attitude and low recognition against the machine. In this paper, we studied method to improve the learning attitude through STEAM-based robotics education utilizing storytelling and robot smart learning system for elementary school girls. The curriculum is composed of nine themes which are selected from famous classic fairy tales for girls and we developed robot smart learning system which allows girls to enjoy robot design&control, collaborative learning, and sharing their ideas by using smart-phone. As a t-test results of learning attitude, the two groups showed statistically significant difference, the experimental group was higher average than the control group in terms of learning attitude. The robot smart learning system is effective for collaborative learning activities and maintaining learning motivation of elementary school girls.

초등학교 로봇활용교육에서 여학생들의 경우 기계에 대한 부정적 태도와 인식 등으로 인하여 학습동기와 흥미를 유지하는 데 어려움이 따른다. 본 연구에서는 초등학교 여학생들을 위한 STEAM 기반 스토리텔링 로봇활용교육을 통하여 학습태도를 향상시키는 방안을 모색하였다. 교육과정은 여학생들에게 친근한 명작동화를 9개의 학습주제로 구성하였고 스마트폰을 활용하여 로봇설계, 제작, 학습토론, 공유할 수 있는 스마트 로봇교육지원시스템을 개발하였다. 학습태도에 대한 t-검증 결과, 실험집단이 통제집단보다 평균이 더 높았으며 설계된 시스템은 여학생들의 협력적 학습활동과 학습동기 지속에 효과적인 것으로 나타났다.
