The education sector is undergoing significant changes due to the Fourth Industrial Revolution and the advancement of artificial intelligence. Particularly, the importance of education based on artificial intelligence is being emphasized. Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to develop a statistics education program using deep learning prediction in high school mathematics and to examine the impact of such statistically problem-solvingcentered statistics education programs on high school students' statistical literacy and computational thinking. To achieve this goal, a statistics education program using deep learning prediction applicable to high school mathematics was developed. The analysis revealed that students' understanding of context improved through experiencing how data was generated and collected. Additionally, they enhanced their comprehension of data variability while exploring and analyzing various datasets. Moreover, they demonstrated the ability to critically analyze data during the process of validating its reliability. In order to analyze the impact of the statistics education program on high school students' computational thinking, a paired sample t-test was conducted, confirming a statistically significant difference in computational thinking between before and after classes (t=-11.657, p<0.001).

The 2015 revised mathematics curriculum specified software education as a mandatory curriculum amid a trend in which the software environment was extended to daily life due to the fourth industrial revolution. It also calls for a paradigm shift in lessons that incorporate learning and evaluation by specifying a process-oriented assessment. This study focused on addition and subtraction classes based on computational thinking skills that integrate mathematics learning and evaluation. Two fourth grade classes of elementary schools in Seoul were selected to conduct a pre- and post- test of metacognition and mathematics achievement through quantitative research. Also, a mixed study was conducted to analyze students' activities and opinions in parallel. The results of the study confirmed that the computational thinking-based classes, which incorporate mathematics learning and evaluation, had a positive effect on the metacognition of elementary school students and the improvement of their achievement scores. In addition to those identified in this study, further studies on other factors are proposed.

As the importance of SW education grows, researches are actively being conducted to improve students' thinking skills. We conducted the group III tasks, which are experiencing and challenging in Beaver Challenge 2018, on 55 students of 5th grade in elementary school. Based on the result, we analyzed their average scores and defined whether each test has a correlation with possession of smartphone, computer familiarity, patience, concentration, and academic ability. The result indicated challenging task boosted the average score, the percentage of correct answers, and the percentage of correct answers for each level of difficulty. Moreover, the challenge task scores were higher as they higher computer familiarity, patience and concentration level. However, possession of smartphones and academic ability did not affect the score. Lastly, the scores were affected by different factors in different level of difficulty that patience factor in advanced level, computer familiarity factor in intermediate level, and concentration factor in beginner level. Thus, further researches are necessary to be conducted to expand the scope of the analysis through the diversification of test subject group and expansion of an evaluation area.

In order to promote national competition on knowledge based-society in 21centuries, it is important for us to train talented people who have much creativity. Comparing curriculums and contents studied in SECG (Science Education Center for the Gifted) and other organizations is object of this thesis. Finding implications of proper GATE(gifted and talented education) by understanding the present conditions is also a part of this thesis. We select 5 Science Education Centers for the Gifted and devise framework for analysis in order to analyze chemical textbooks in GATE programs. The framework consists of 6 categories including the contents, the level of activities, the opening extent of experiments, and the ability to think creatively. In our study of textbooks, we have found that the contents of chapters are divided properly but lacked the field of frontier and convergence science. Their activity types will have to develop programs which consist of various activities such as lectures and experiments. Precedent studies and study activities to promote scientific thinking were rated highly in general ratio. The level of studies that we analyzed lacked creative activities very much. In the opening extent of experiments, activities in the level 2 and the level 3 were low-rate. And in our study of thinking creatively, activities of promotion for expanded and related-ability to think seemed to lack. In order to achieve specific education for the gifted children, developments of GATE program is required. In the in-depth analysis from the questionnaires of Likert's method's descriptions, narrations, and interviews, it is divided into two answers in depth: contents of program, management of program. These also divided into two answers by attitude: positive answer or negative answer. According to the responses of the contents of program, the result of analysis shows that most respondents have positive reactions to not only contents and the managing method of SECG programs, but also to individual enhancing-abilities overall.

The purpose of this study lies in applying generalizability theory depending on the aim of the usage of GALT to analyze the sources of error of single-facet considering item and person only and to analyze the sources of error of multi-facet considering item, person and domain. The study was conducted with 1016 students of local elementary, middle, and high schools. The 21 items of a full version were answered for 40 minute and then the 12 items of short version were sampled to analyze reliability using generalizability theory. Both the full version and the short version of the items were analyzed using Cronbach's alpha for data analysis, and we applied generalizability theory and separate $p{\times}i$ design and $p{\times}(i:h)$ design, G study and D study were performed. Results of analysis are as follows: First, the result of D study after $p{\times}I$ design both on the full version and the short version showed that in the case of the full version, the generalizability coefficient was 0.87 exceeding a normal level of 0.80, and the normal level of generalizability coefficient was achieved in 13 items as well. In case of short version, when 12 items were evaluated, generalizability coefficient was 0.77 not reaching the normal level, and the normal level was achieved in case of more than 15 items. Second, the result of D study after $p{\times}(I:H)$ design on the short version showed that once one domain consists of 2 items in 6 domains, generalizability coefficient was 0.71 which is lower than the normal level of 0.80, the normal level was achieved in more than 5 item cases.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the recognition of middle school students on 'Thinking Science' activities and the influence on the understanding of the gas particles behavior concepts. For this study 125 students of four classes first grade in middle school were divided into two groups, the experimental and the control group. The SRT II test was carried out to identify the cognitive level of the students. The logical factors, needed to understand of the gas particles behavior concepts, were extracted. And the 9 'Thinking Science' activities designed to develop these factors were chosen and then implemented to the students of the experimental group. After the lesson for the gas particles behaviors, the achievement test of understanding of the gas particles behavior concepts and the survey of the students' recognition on 'Thinking Science' activities were administered. According to the results of the achievement test, there was not significant difference between the two groups on the whole. But only mature concrete operational students in the experimental group got high scores than those in the control group in analyzing the effect size. According to the results of the ANCOVA analysis, there was significant difference between the two girls' group. When students in the experimental group had a positive perceptions about 'Thinking Science' activities, they got higher achievement scores. This implied that there was a correlation between perception about 'Thinking Science' activities and their achievement in the gas particles behavior concepts. Especially, students with positive perception in mature concrete operational period got higher scores in science achievement. After the 'Thinking Science' activities, there was a high perceptions about improving in scientific thinking.
