The purpose of this study is to analyze the effectiveness of AI convergence education program. To this end, the "Elementary Science AI Convergence Education Program for Machine Learning" developed in previous research were taught to elementary school students in the fourth to sixth grades in eight times. The quantitative changes of each factor were analyzed by R program, and the effectiveness of education was analyzed by Pearson correlation and paired samples t-test. As a result, there is a deep correlation between "Attitude to AI technology, Scientific preference and STEAM Literacy" and technical average has improved in many factors. Therefore, AI convergence education program is meaningful in terms of education, and if AI education and AI convergence education are implemented into the primary formal education curriculum, they will have a positive effect.

Many countries design and implement informatics curriculum based on core competencies to respond to the demands of development and reform in rapidly changing times. In this paper, we developed the core competencies framework of elementary information education by comparing and analyzing the core competencies and suggested the direction of the composition of elementary informatics subjects. We found that social-emotional skills, communication, creativity, responsibility, culture and ethics, problem-solving, collaboration and abstract competencies overlapped among the capabilities presented by each country and institution, and computational thinking and information technology utilization skills in Korea. Therefore, we proposed to reflect the core competencies of the framework in the elementary informatics curriculum. Moreover, we also suggested enhancing problem-solving skills, strengthening social responsibility and cultivating convergent skills to organize the curriculum. We hope that this thesis will expand the necessity of organizing an elementary information curriculum that reflects core competencies in the 2022 revised curriculum.

We often use spellcheckers in order to correct the syntactic errors in our documents. However, these computer programs are not enough for elementary school students, because their sentences are not smooth even after correcting the syntactic errors in many cases. In this paper, we introduce an automated method for evaluating the smoothness of two synonymous sentences. This method uses a recurrent neural network to solve the problem of long-term dependencies and exploits subwords to cope with the rare word problem. We trained the recurrent neural network language model based on a monolingual corpus of about two million English sentences. In our experiments, the trained model successfully selected the more smooth sentences for all of nine types of test set. We expect that our approach will help in elementary school writing after being implemented as an application for smart devices.

The purpose of the study is to examine the effect of debate and discussion instruction in mathematics class on mathematics study achievements and attitudes in elementary school. To conduct the research, two classes were verified as the homogeneous groups by a preliminary examination on the fourth grade of J elementary school. After mathematics class, the subjects were conducted the same mathematics study achievement and attitude tests in two groups and were analyzed with descriptive statistics, independent t-test, t-test. Accordingly, debate and discussion instruction in mathematics class is more effective than regular lecture method instruction. debate and discussion instruction in mathematics classes are believed students will participate in the question and understand the mathematical principles and concepts themselves through action to solve the problem and influenced I have a positive attitude towards mathematics.

With the development of artificial intelligence, society is moving toward another world that has never existed before. As a result, interest in artificial intelligence education is also increasing, and research on artificial intelligence education is being conducted more actively in Korea. However, many studies have been conducted focusing on the upper grades of elementary school, and curriculum and programs for the lower grades are still insufficient. Therefore, in this study, a total of 6 sessions of artificial intelligence programs were developed to understand image recognition for the lower grades of elementary school. The validity was secured by conducting expert validity for 8 experts, and the effectiveness was verified through the pre-post-response sample t-test by applying it to the experimental group. As a result, both artificial intelligence understanding and artificial intelligence attitude showed statistically significant results, and both the interest and difficulty of educational programs were found to be suitable for lower grade students. Based on the contents of this study, it is necessary to review its application and effectiveness in various environments through follow-up studies in the future.

In the newly revised curriculum, it is aimed to raise student who has creativity and convergence ability with computational thinking. Based on the analysis of revised curriculum including software education in elementary school, this study proposed educational program that can be applied in actual school field, considering various factors. This educational program using Bitbrick was conducted by 50 students in fifth grade that consist of 23 students in Seoul and 27 students in Gyeonggido during five weeks in 17 periods. The purpose of this study is to verify the effect of application of software education program in terms of computational thinking ability and problem solving ability. The effect was verified after comparing the result of pre-test and post-test through T-test. So, this study obtained improvement of computational thinking and problem solving ability.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a script intervention based on multimedia on the verbal and behavioral self-advocacy skill of elementary school students with disabilities. A multiple probe baseline design across subjects had been used with 4 students with intellectual disabilities. The results showed all participants showed significant increase of verbal and behavioral self-advocacy performance in asking for help, expressing one's opinions, and coping with violations, and the effects were maintained. The intervention was more effective for verbal self-advocacy than behavioral. Some suggestions for future study are discussed.

To prevent problems such as portrait rights, copyright, and cyber violence, an ethics education STEAM projects using deepfake apps using AI technology were developed and applied. The Deepfake apps were screened, and the contents of the elementary school curriculum were reconstructed. The STEAM project as creative experiential activities was mainly operated by the UCC activities, and applied the info-ethics awareness measurement test based on the planned behavior theory. The social STEAM project as money (financial) education was qualitatively analyzed. It was found that this STEAM classes using AI technology app significantly enhances the ethical awareness of information communication.

인터넷과 웹의 급속한 성장은 전반적으로 우리사회에 영향을 미쳤고 교육 분야도 예외는 아니다. 정보화 사회에 대응하는 교육의 효율성을 높이고자 교육개혁을 추진하고 있다. 7차 교육과정에서는 정보화 사회에 대처할 수 있는 능력함양을 위해 정보화교육의 중요성을 강조하고 있으며, 국가 차원의 교육정보화 사업달성을 위해 노력하고 있다. 그러나 초등학교에서는 컴퓨터 교육에 대한 정확한 교육과정과 교육내용이 제시되어있지 않고 재량활동의 일부분으로 컴퓨터교육을 실시함에 따라 마땅한 컴퓨터 교재와 학생들의 수준별 학습이 이루어지지 못하여 체계적인 컴퓨터교육이 이루어지지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구는 웹 기반 교수-학습을 활용하여 학습자 중심의 자기 주도적 학습을 하고 학습자에게 학습과정에 대한 자기 평가의 기회를 제공함으로써 학습에 대한 인식과 주도성을 증진시키고, 수준별 학습을 할 수 있는 올바른 패러다임을 모색하였다.

현대 정보화 사회에 대응하는 교육을 위해 정보 인프라 구축에 심혈을 기울이고 교육의 다양화 첨단화를 추구하여 교육의 효율성과 효과성을 높이고자 하는 교육 개혁을 추진하고 있다. 또한 7차 교육과정에서 정보화 사회에 대처할 수 있는 능력 함양을 위해 정보화 교육의 중요성을 한층 더 강조하고 있으며, 국가 차원의 교육정보화 사업 달성을 위해 노력하고 있다. 그러나 아직까지 초등학교에서는 컴퓨터 교육에 대한 정확한 교육과정과 교육내용이 제시되어 있지 않고 재량활동, 특별활동, 특기·적성교육, 실과교과의 일부분으로 컴퓨터 교육을 실시함에 따라 마땅한 컴퓨터 교재와 학생들의 수준별 학습이 이루어지지 못하여 체계적인 컴퓨터 교육이 이루어지지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 이에 따라 본 연구는 웹 기반 교수-학습을 활용하여 학습자 중심의 자기 주도적 학습을 하고 학습자에게 학습과정에 대한 자기 평가의 기회를 제공함으로써 학습에 대한 인식과 주도성을 증진시키고, 수준별 학습을 할 수 있는 올바른 교육 개선 방안을 모색하였다.
