In this study, we conduct SW education using robot in elementary school, to examine the effects of SW education using robot and identify differences dependeing on the presence of assistance teacher. In order to achieve the purpose of this study, SW education using robot was conducted to 29 students. After collecting data, we examined mean difference using matched pair t-test and ANCOVA. Our results show that SW education using robot significantly improved CT and attitudes toward robots. CT, however, was not significantly improved in control group. Further, although improvement in attitudes toward robots was not associated with presence of assistance teacher, presence of assistance teacher did play a role in improvement of CT. This study was investigated effects of the SW education using robot and identify differences depending on the presence of assistant teacher, and expanded the understanding of the SW education using robot.

The purpose of this study was to analyze domestic research trends of software education using robot, and find out implications for studies. The 108 articles from 2006 to 2016 in terms of software education using robot were analyzed. Results showd that there has been the growing number of articles, the development research was most frequently used in those studies. And most articles were studies on elementary school students. There used programming such as Scratch, NXT-G etc. and utilized robot likes Mindstorms series, Picocriket etc. Also, there applied to PBL, CPS etc. on software education using robot. Finally, Positive results were shown in learners' cognitive and affective domain. This research has an significance in terms of verifying the educational implications of software education using robot, and offering the direction of software education using robot in the future.

본 연구는 초등학교에서 로봇 활용 SW 교육을 실시하고 사전 수준 및 성별에 따라 효과에 차이가 있는지 규명하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 경기도의 A 초등학교 5, 6학년 학생 155명을 대상으로 로봇 활용 SW 교육을 실시하였으며, 수집된 자료는 대응 표본 t 검정, 일원분산분석, 공분산분석을 통해 평균의 차이를 분석하였다. 연구 결과, 로봇 활용 SW 교육을 실시한 후 학생들의 컴퓨팅사고력과 창의성이 유의하게 향상되었으나, 컴퓨팅사고력 수준이 상 집단인 학생들은 유의한 향상을 나타내지 않았다. 또한 학생들의 컴퓨팅사고력은 성별의 차이가 없었으나, 창의성은 성별에 따른 차이가 유의한 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 사전 수준과 성별에 따른 로봇 활용 SW 교육의 효과를 규명하여 로봇 활용 SW 교육에 대한 이해를 확장시켰다는 점에서 연구의 의의가 있다.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of SW education using robots on Computational Thinking, Creativity, Academic Interest and Collaborative skill. In order to achieve the purpose, SW education using robots was conducted to 88 students in 5th grade in Seoul. After collecting data, we examined mean differences using matched pair t-test. The results indicated that the SW education using robots is associated with significant improvements in Computational Thinking, Creativity and Academic Interest while Collaborative skill is not associated with significant improvement. This research investigated the effects of the SW education using robots and expanded the understanding of the SW education using robots. In addition, this study provides several implications with regard to suggesting the direction to go further of SW education using robots.

In this study, we conduct SW education using robot in elementary school, to examine the effects of SW education using robot on CT and gender differences. In order to achieve the purpose of this study, SW education using robot was conducted to 143 students in 5, 6 grade in GyeongGi. After collecting data, we examined mean difference using matched pair t-test and ANCOVA. The results of this study were as follows: The SW education using robot is associated with significant improvements in CT, however, computational concepts is not associated with significant improvement in high initial score sub sample. And CT is not associated with gender. This study was investigated effects of the SW education using robot and identify gender differences. And expanded the understanding of the SW education using robot.

Through the fourth industrial revolution and coronavirus pandemic situation, the necessity and importance of SW education are being emphasized more. However, it is difficult to achieve the effect of improving students' computational thinking skills by just 17th hour, which is organized in the 2015 revised curriculum. Moreover, due to the coronavirus pandemic situation that has continued since last year, there are environmental restrictions on the equal SW education for students at the educational site. In this study, the unplugged class using a completion robot was designed to reflect the current situation at the educational site and experience of SW education was provided to the 6th graders of J elementary school. Through the application of a class, we checked whether the unplugged class using robots affect students' perception of SW education and the use of computational thinking skills. As a result, the unplugged class using a completion robot showed that students used computational thinking to solve given problems and had a positive impact on changes in perception of SW education.

The purpose of this study was to examine the structural relationships among factors affecting teachers' robot-based SW education acceptance in primary school. In addition, this study investigated moderating effects of gender, age, and experience. For this purpose, 171 elementary school teachers participated in this study and structural equation modeling analyses were employed to examine the causal relationships among variables. The result of this study showed that perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, personal innovativeness had direct effects on attitude. Furthermore, attitude mediated relationships between perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, personal innovativeness and intention to use. Third, the moderating effects of experience between perceived usefulness, personal innovativeness and attitude were significant, but gender and age were not significant on all paths. Based on the results of this study, successful teaching practices, cases, and contents should be shared with teachers. Also, continuous supports and differentiated strategies based on experience are needed.

The national curriculum includes the problem solving process, algorithms, and programming of SW education. The education using robots is one of attractive alternatives for students who have no interest of SW or are poor at programming. We have developed a courseware using robots for SW education based on paper art activities with narrative storytelling to enhance students' creative thinking and problem solving within limitation of class time in schools. We apply the courseware and obtained the result of pre and post-test on the creative problem solving ability of third graders in the elementary school The four factors of creative problem solving have shown significantly increase. In addition, it had an significant effects for understanding robot technology and for learning attitude using robots of SW or programming.

According to the rapid growth and popularization of the SMART device, the society is being changed greatly and importance of SW education is being emphasized. Also many student have a lot of interests about mobile application programming. The latest study suggests using the robots in the programming education may help to induce learners' interest and motivation, participation, achievement. So in this research, I designed a programming educational plan for SW education using robot and mobile application development tool(App Inventor) and applied them. And I conducted a survey four ares such as class, robot, App Inventor, robot and App Inventor. As a result, learner's response of interest and satisfaction was very positive commonly at four areas. In particular, learners could get programming result immediately using smart phone and could control the robot using smart phone, so learner's interest had increased especially. The conclusion is that suggested plan for SW education using robot and mobile application development tool is useful for programming education.
