Abstract

Many countries design and implement informatics curriculum based on core competencies to respond to the demands of development and reform in rapidly changing times. In this paper, we developed the core competencies framework of elementary information education by comparing and analyzing the core competencies and suggested the direction of the composition of elementary informatics subjects. We found that social-emotional skills, communication, creativity, responsibility, culture and ethics, problem-solving, collaboration and abstract competencies overlapped among the capabilities presented by each country and institution, and computational thinking and information technology utilization skills in Korea. Therefore, we proposed to reflect the core competencies of the framework in the elementary informatics curriculum. Moreover, we also suggested enhancing problem-solving skills, strengthening social responsibility and cultivating convergent skills to organize the curriculum. We hope that this thesis will expand the necessity of organizing an elementary information curriculum that reflects core competencies in the 2022 revised curriculum.

세계 각국은 급변하는 시대의 발전 및 개혁 요구에 대응하기 위해 미래에 필요한 핵심역량을 기준으로 정보교과과정을 설계하고 시행하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 핵심역량을 비교 분석하여 초등 정보교육 핵심역량 프레임워크를 개발하였으며, 초등 정보교과 구성 방향성을 제시하였다. 각 국가 및 기관에서 제시한 역량 중 사회적-감정적 역량, 의사소통, 창의력, 책임감, 문화와 윤리, 문제 해결 능력, 협력, 추상 역량이 중첩되었으며, 국내 중·고등학교 정보 교과에서는 컴퓨팅 사고력과 정보기술 활용 능력을 중시함을 알 수 있었다. 이에 향후 초등 정보교과에서 제안된 핵심역량 프레임워크를 교과 구성에 반영하며, 사회적 책임감을 강화하고 융복합적 소양을 함양하여 문제해결력을 제고하는 방향으로 편성할 것을 제안하였다. 본 논문을 통하여 2022년 개정 교육과정에 핵심역량을 반영한 초등 정보교과 편성의 필요성이 확대되기를 바란다.
