Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to study the unplugged educational program for the lower grades of elementary school. For this, the study was conducted as follows. First, a play-learning-based unplugged education method was discovered, focusing on play activities according to the level of development of elementary school students. Secondly, unplugged educational programs to develop Computational Thinking were designed according to the discovered topics. each class is conducted by storytelling, and the content of the storytelling is related to the integrated curriculum 'Winter'. In addition, each class was analyzed based on the core elements of Computational Thinking ability. And, we developed educational materials that can be used in the designed unplugged educational program. Finally, the educational program was applied to the lower grades of elementary school, and the educational program was analyzed through case studies. As a result of the analysis, the educational program was organized according to the level of the students, and it was confirmed that this educational program is helpful in improving the Computational Thinking of lower grade students of elementary school.

본 연구의 목적은 초등학교 저학년 학생을 대상으로 하는 언플러그드 교육프로그램을 연구하는 것이다. 이를 위하여 다음과 같이 연구를 진행하였다. 첫 번째로 초등학교 저학년 학생의 발달 수준에 맞게 놀이 활동 중심으로 놀이학습 기반 언플러그드 교육 방법을 발굴하였다. 두 번째로 발굴된 주제에 따라 컴퓨팅 사고력을 기를 수 있는 언플러그드 교육프로그램을 설계하였다. 각 차시는 스토리텔링으로 진행이 되며, 스토리텔링의 내용은 통합교과 '겨울'과 관련된다. 또한, 각 차시는 컴퓨팅 사고력의 핵심요소를 기준으로 분석되었다. 그리고 설계한 언플러그드 교육프로그램에서 활용할 수 있는 교육 자료를 개발하였다. 마지막으로 초등학교 저학년 학생을 대상으로 교육프로그램을 적용하고, 사례연구를 통해 교육프로그램을 분석하였다. 분석 결과 학생들의 수준에 맞게 교육프로그램이 구성되었으며, 본 교육프로그램은 초등저학년 학생의 컴퓨팅 사고력 향상에 도움이 된다는 것을 확인하였다.
