This paper is proposed to present elementary algorithmic thinking-based Squeak E-toy programming problems for flowchart-based programming educations without programming languages in elementary programming educations. Furthermore, this paper proves the validity and effects of developed Squeak E-toy programming problems through measurement analyses of metacognition and GALT logical thinking ability experiments by comparing with the language-based traditional programming education.

The content of software education for elementary school students in the 2015 revisions to the national curriculum are not sufficient because class time dedicated to software education has been limited to 17 hours in fifth and sixth grades. In this study, I developed the algorithm and programming model for Korea. I analyzed domestic and international software education curricula as well as training platforms, such as Code.org, Blockly Games, and Entry. The suggested algorithm and programming framework is known as the Rainbow system, which is divided into 7 steps, 14 criteria, and 3 content areas--understanding the algorithm, the actual programming, and evaluation of the program. Using the Rainbow system, once students have completed a level they can be promoted to the next stage, regardless of their grade.

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.

초등 정보과학 영재교육의 핵심이 되는 프로그래밍교육은 창의적 사고와 수준 높은 문제 해결력을 동원하여 새로운 알고리즘을 생성해내는 정보 교육의 중요한 분야임에도 불구하고 초등 정보과학영재의 특성을 고려한 체계적인 교육 내용이 확립되어 있지 못한 상태이다. 본 연구에서는 초등 정보과학영재를 위한 프로그래밍 교육의 필요성을 탐색하여 프로그래밍 교육내용 요소를 추출하였으며, 프로그래밍 언어 선정기준을 통해 비주얼, 베이직을 교육용 프로그래밍 언어로 선정한 후 프로그래밍 교육내용을 제안하였다.

Software education is required from elementary schools to prepare students for the fourth industrial revolution, which aims to improve algorithmic thinking. In general, teaching is divided into two stages: using a flowchart to design algorithms and implementing them through programming. However, converting a flowchart into code and checking the results in an educational programming tool is time consuming and requires additional programming activities. This study proposes a tangible coding tool that enables elementary students to convert algorithms designed at the unplugged activity into educational programming tool codes. This tool was developed in order for students to design algorithms at the level of assembling paper blocks and input them into a programming tool by taking a picture. Sixth graders were participated in this activity to evaluate its usability.

The curriculum of programming education including algorithm has been recognized as a very important subject to many students majoring in natural sciences and engineering including electronic engineering and computer related departments. However, many students have had difficulties with it due to its characteristics; as a consequence, they have been in trouble taking upper-level subjects. Flow chart is a diagram that expresses logical stages necessary to solve certain problems and has been widely used to have an understanding of the flow of algorithm. The practice-oriented education of algorithm and programming would be very important to assist the understanding of operation processes. Furthermore, it has been desperately required to the necessity of auxiliary programs that could enhance an understanding of the concept of algorithm and program execution process. This study was aimed to design and embody the learning system of programming languages using basic algorithms so as for students to easily learn basic algorithm among the entire programming curriculum.

The programming learning by using a robot may be one of the most appropriate learning methods for enabling students to experience the creative learning of future society by avoiding the existing stereotyped style educational environment, and understand and improve algorithm which is the basic fundamental of mathematics and science. This study proposed four types of items of errors which may occur during robot programming by elementary school students, and made elementary school students in the fifth and sixth grades learn robot programming after developing the curriculum for the robot programming. Then, the study collected and classified errors that had occurred during the process of learning, and conducted a comparative analysis of computer-based programming language which had been previously studied. This study identified that robot programming in elementary school was shown superior to existing computer-based programming language as a creative learning method and tool through the field experience.

Programming education generally includes problem analysis process, automation through algorithms and programming, and generalization process. It is a good software education method for students in improving computing thinking. However, it was found that beginners had difficulties in understanding instruction usage, writing algorithms, and implementing programming. In this study, we developed a game programming education model and curriculum for programming education of pre-service teachers. The 4E model consisted of empathy, exploration, engagement and evaluation. In addition, it is configured to learn game core elements and core command blocks by each stage. To help the pre-service teachers understand the use of various programming blocks, a three-step teaching and learning method was presented, consisting of example learning, self-game creation, and team-based projects. As a result of applying and verifying the curriculum for 15 weeks, it showed significant results in the 4E model and pre-service teachers' perception of block programming competence and the level of computational thinking on the submitted game project results was also high.

Block programming environment, which is represented by Scratch in elementary and middle school programming education, is suitable for learner's characteristics and cognitive level, and is recommended not only for beginners. Transference to the text programming environment after the block programming is essential for understanding the data processing process, understanding the accuracy and efficiency aspects of algorithms, and creating SW activity. In addition, it is presented step by step in the programming curriculum. In this study, developed WithBlock the online evaluation system for the purpose of transference from a block programming to a text programming environment. The developed system can solve the same algorithm problem in both block and text programming environment, and it can be used for elementary and secondary programming education by automatically scoring the written code and providing immediate feedback. In order to applicable to programming education in elementary and secondary surveyed the usability, learning possibility, interest and satisfaction of WithBlock. The results of the survey showed that it can be used for programming education.
