Abstract

In this study, a software education program based on blended learning using scratch was designed for pre-service elementary teachers' software education. Software education program was applied to experimental group and control group within the university of education using Scratch programming for 12 weeks. Blended learning using online lectures was applied to experimental group. The pre-service teachers' recognition about software education and self-evaluation of computational thinking were performed. Then, we analyzed the effect of the developed education program on the recognition of software education and computational thinking. As a result, the level of post-recognition of software education in the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the pre-recognition. In the self-evaluation of computational thinking, the experimental group was significantly higher than the control group. Therefore, it can be seen that the software education program based on blended learning can help improve the learner's computational thinking.

본 연구에서는 예비초등교사의 소프트웨어교육을 위해 스크래치를 활용하는 블렌디드 러닝 기반의 소프트웨어교육 프로그램을 설계하였다. B교육대학교 3학년 2개 반을 실험집단과 비교집단으로 구성하고 설계한 소프트웨어교육 프로그램을 12주 동안 적용하였다. 초등예비교사의 소프트웨어교육에 대한 인식실태 설문과 컴퓨팅 사고력 자가 평가를 실시하여, 개발한 교육 프로그램이 소프트웨어교육의 인식과 컴퓨팅 사고력 능력에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 실험 결과, 실험집단의 사후 소프트웨어교육에 대한 인식 수준이 사전 소프트웨어교육 인식 수준에 비해 유의미하게 높아졌다. 컴퓨팅 사고력 자가 평가에서도 실험집단이 비교집단에 비해 유의미하게 높아 블렌디드 러닝 기반의 소프트웨어교육 프로그램이 학습자의 컴퓨팅 사고력 향상에 도움을 줄 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.
