Even though software (SW) education has not been considered part of the current national kindergarten curriculum, in practice there is growing interest in adopting it. Teachers would be expected to play a key role in the successful introduction and implementation of new educational changes, such as SW education. In preparation for its adoption in ECE, it would be useful to determine ECE teachers' perception and attitudes toward early childhood software education. For this study, 219 ECE teachers' level of concern toward SW education was surveyed using the Stages of Concern Questionnaire. It was found that the teachers' level of concern was the highest at stage 0-Unconcerned and that they had high levels of stage management, personal and informational concern. Thus, a non-user pattern was mostly indicated. However, compared to the typical non-user pattern, the pattern aspect close to critical non-user ever appeared to some extent. In addition, a significant difference in the level of concern was shown at all stages depending on the awareness of the necessity for SW education. The teachers with SW training experience showed a higher intensity only at stage 0. There was a statistically significant difference in stages 0 and 6 depending on the future implementation decision. These results will be utilized as a resource in building an ECE teachers' support system according to their level of concern about SW education.

As the interest in software education grew, the Ministry of Education was also required to provide software education for practical course of grades 5-6. In this study, learner-centered evaluation was applied to software education to analyze its effectiveness. It is hoped that many teachers will apply learner-centered evaluation to software education to become more effective software education in school. In a learner-centered evaluation, students can expect positive effects by actively participating in classes and engaging in active learning activities. Through learner-centered evaluation, we have taken into account the various background variables to see how students' three aspects, creativity, problem-solving ability and information-use ability change, and how learner-centered evaluation affects these abilities in software education. The result of research have shown that in software education, learner-centered evaluations have all had significant effects on creativity, problem-solving ability and information-use ability, as well as the existence of entry/scratch study experience.

Software in the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution is becoming a key foundation in an intelligent information society. Therefore, it is necessary to study the new direction of manpower training and education that can cope with the times. To this end, the Ministry of Education reorganized the curriculum and is implementing software education based on a logical problem-solving process based on computing thinking skills rather than acquiring general ICT knowledge. However, there is a lack of securing high-quality educational content for software education, and there is also a lack of teaching aids that can be taught in connection with advanced IT technologies. To overcome this, this paper proposes the development of external expansion devices to expand educational content and functions capable of convergent software education such as artificial intelligence using coding robots for software education. Through this, effective software education is possible by improving the curriculum of the existing simple problem-solving method and developing various learning materials.

The evolution of new digital technologies is progressing rapidly. In particular, many changes in software and artificial intelligence are progressing rapidly in the field of education. The Ministry of Education is planning an educational program by linking software and artificial intelligence regular curriculum. Before applying it to regular subjects, various software and artificial intelligence related experience camps are being promoted. This study aims to construct an educational model for software and artificial intelligence education programs for high school students based on new digital technology. By expanding and distributing software and artificial intelligence education, we aim to enhance the basic capabilities of software and artificial intelligence for high school students. I would like to define the concept of software and artificial intelligence in high school and propose a model that links software and artificial intelligence learning factors to the regular curriculum.

시간과 공간제약이 없는 다양한 사이버 원격 교육이 제공되고 있으나, 이러한 사이버 원격 교육은 이론을 중심으로 한 강의식 교육이 일반적이며, 실습이 요구되는 경우에는 수강생이 별도의 환경에서 실습을 수행하여야 한다. 특히 소프트웨어 사용법 교육의 경우에는 사용자의 행위에 대해서 강사의 확인과 지도가 요구되므로, 현재의 사이버 원격 교육 시스템으로는 교육적 효율성이 낮다. 본 논문에서는 실습이 요구되는 소프트웨어의 원격 교육의 효율성을 골이기 위한 방안으로, 소프트웨어의 조작 과정을 보여주는 동영상을 제공하고 실습 행위의 정확성을 판정하여 주는 원격 소프트웨어 교육 및 실습 시스템을 제안하고 이의 구현에 대하여 설명한다.

With the advent of the 4th industrial revolution era, many countries around the world are making efforts to prepare for a new future. In addition to changes in the industrial structure, efforts are being made to reflect new changes in the education system to cultivate human resources. As one of the important parts of change, software education is reflected as a core area of the curriculum and introduced as a future competency in order to cultivate human resources who can prepare for and lead the change into a computer-oriented intelligent information society. In this study, the purpose of this study was to examine the perceptions of pre-service teachers on software education, analyze the direction and thoughts they have about elementary school information education, and examine the necessity and direction of the subject. Based on the responses of preliminary teachers, it was suggested that project-based learning is necessary for how SW education is carried out in the school field, and they answered that the evaluation should be performed through observational evaluation. In addition, as a result of examining the perception of prospective teachers, it was possible to see the result that SW education is recognized as an important competency for preparing for the future society.

2015 개정 교육과정에 따라 2019년 3월부터 초등학교 5~6학년 학생을 대상으로 소프트웨어 교육이 실시된다. 궁극적인 소프트웨어 교육의 목표는 컴퓨팅 사고력을 갖춘 창의 융합형 인재를 양성하는 것이다. 이를 위해 초등학교에서는 알고리즘과 프로그래밍의 체험을 통해 소프트웨어 기초 소양을 함양하는 것을 목표로 한다. 이러한 컴퓨팅 사고력을 수업에 효과적으로 적용하기 위해 전용주(2017)는 소프트웨어 및 컴퓨팅에 관련된 사고과정과 원리를 실생활의 소재와 관련지어 창의적이고 능동적으로 그 해결방안을 구현해가는 과정으로 제시할 수 있는 수업 구성 원리인 CT-CPS 수업 모형을 개발하였다. 또한 교육부는 2015 개정 교육과정 실시 전, 소프트웨어 교육을 위한 선도학교를 전국에 지정하여 운영하였다. 선도학교에서의 소프트웨어 교육과정을 분석한 결과 주로 컴퓨팅 사고력의 구성요소 중 알고리즘과 자동화에 초점이 맞춰져 있었다. 엔트리와 스크래치와 같은 블록 프로그래밍 도구를 사용한 코딩교육과 로봇교육을 주로 실시했고, 실제 문제에 대한 학생들이 자료를 직접 다루는 시간은 찾아보기 힘들었다. 컴퓨팅사고력 향상을 위해서는 학생들이 실제 자료를 수집, 분석, 표현해보는 활동이 반드시 필요하다. 이에 본 연구에서 NetsBlox을 활용하고자 한다. NetsBlox는 학생들에게 익숙한 블록형 프로그래밍 도구로 실제 데이터를 온라인상에서 쉽게 받아와서 수집, 분석, 표현을 하게 도와주는 역할을 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 초등학생을 위한 NetsBlox를 활용한 CT-CPS기반 프로그래밍 수업을 설계하고자 한다.
