Abstract

In this study, we analyzed what factors parents have on the SW education willingness for the child. In order to design a structured model, we set the configuration of five variables; child's SW interest, recognition of SW policy, importance of SW competency, child's SW profession and willingness of SW education. We surveyed the parents who their children have SW education experiences. According to the results, mediating factors on parental commitment to their child's SW education was recognized SW-related jobs. SW-related job was worked the recognition of SW policy and the importance of SW capabilities as independent variables. In addition, SW interest of child affected an important independent factor.

본 연구에서는 학부모가 자녀의 SW교육 의지에 미치는 영향이 무엇인지 분석하였다. 구조방정식 모형을 설계하기 위해 변인을 자녀의 SW 관심도, 부모의 SW정책 인식, SW관련 역량, 자녀의 SW 진로, 자녀에 대한 SW교육 의지로 설정하고 SW교육 경험이 있는 자녀를 둔 부모를 대상으로 검사하였다. 연구 결과 자녀의 SW 교육에 대한 학부모 의지에 미치는 요인은 자녀의 SW 관련 직업을 매개로 SW관련 정책과 SW 역량의 중요성에 대한 인식이 중요한 변인으로 작용하였고, 자녀의 SW 관심도는 직접적으로 중요한 요인임을 밝혔다.
