In this study, we focus on the classifying and representing data in the elementary mathematics curriculum for 1st and 2nd grades which have been rarely addressed in the previous studies. We analyze the significance of classifying and representing sata in terms of statistical problem solving and variability as the core of statistical literacy. As a result, the classifying and representing data are important for students to recognize the variability which is ubiquitous in the data and to construct distribution of data, respectively. They are reflected in the 2015 revised mathematics curriculum as the statistical literacy for addressing data. We suggest some implications to teach the classifying and representing data as the practice of statistical literacy education in their statistics classes for 1st and 2nd grades.

미래형 인재의 필요성과 시대의 변화 및 요구를 반영하여 전 세계적으로 메이커 운동이 일어나고 메이커 활동의 교육적 가치를 인정받아 새로운 교육방법이자 패러다임으로서 우리나라의 메이커 교육도 점차 확산되고 있다. 하지만 학교 교육과정에서 활용할 메이커 교육 콘텐츠는 부족한 실정이며 2015 개정교육과정에 따라 소프트웨어 교육을 뒷받침하고, 초등학교에서 학교 교육과정의 변화를 받아들이면서 창의융합형 인재를 양성할 수 있는 소프트웨어 교육이 이루어질 수 있도록 디자인 사고 기반 메이커 교육프로그램을 개발하고자 한다.

The "Information and Communication Technology Education Guidelines" were revised in December, 2005. However, the revised guidelines are not propagated in the elementary school. One of the reasons is that the textbook is not faithful to the revised guidelines. We analyzed the elementary computer textbooks published on and after June 2006. In the result, the contents of many textbooks are not based on the "Information and Communication Technology Education Revised Guidelines". Especially, "Understanding of the Information Processing" and "Comprehensive Activities" areas are not faithful to the revised guidelines. Therefore, the systematization of the textbook screening system, participation of the computer education expert, development of the detailed curriculums, and training of the elementary teachers are essentials for invigorating of the elementary computer education.

In this study, connections between the NURI curriculum for 5 years old children and the contents of teacher's manual books according to it and the contents of elementary 1st grade mathematics curriculum and textbooks was analyzed to find the implications that can help to link the two curricula in the development of kindergarten and elementary school mathematics curriculum. The five following implications could be obtained from the analysis. First, it is necessary to connect the contents of the NURI curriculum for 5 years old children which were completed in that curriculum like 'spatial relation'in geometric figure domain and 'data collection'in probability and statistics domain to the contents of the 1st grade curriculum. Second, in the case of the contents not connected between the NURI curriculum for 5 years old children and the contents of elementary 1st grade mathematics curriculum but connected between the NURI curriculum for 5 years old children and the contents of elementary 2nd ~6th grade mathematics curriculum, it is necessary to re-adjust the hierarchy based on one of the curricula. Third, it is necessary to check whether $\ll$K-teacher's manual book$\gg$ obey the NURI curriculum for 5 years old children or not. Fourth, it is necessary to review the related elements of the NURI curriculum for 5 years old children and elementary 2nd ~6th grade mathematics curriculum in [activity] in $\ll$K-teacher's manual book$\gg$. Fifth, it is necessary to handle the mathematics contents explicitly and systematically in [activity] in $\ll$K-teacher's manual book$\gg$.

본 연구에서는 신재생 에너지 Bio-Energy와 STEAM교육의 연구 사례를 살펴보고 이를 토대로 초등학교 5-6학년을 위한 바이오에너지를 이용한 STEAM 교육프로그램과 수업방안을 제시한다. 5-6학년의 지적 발달 수준과 흥미를 고려하여 교육프로그램을 구상하고 이에 따른 교재와 교사용 지도서를 개발하였고, 학습용 미생물 연료전지 교구도 개발하였다. 개발된 교육프로그램의 실효성을 검증하기 위해 제주도내 5-6학년 학생 10명을 대상으로 6차시동안 단계별로 교육을 진행하였다. 향후 추적연구 및 확대 적용이 이루어질 예정이며, 신기술 주제의 STEAM교육을 지도함으로써 좋은 효과를 얻을 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

현재 초등학생용 컴퓨터 수업에서 그래픽 수업을 위한 초등학생 교육용 소프트웨어와 컨텐츠가 부족한 것이 현실이다. 매주 컴퓨터 수업을 하고 있으나 교과서에서 그래픽 관련 단원 수업은 거의 미미한 수준이다. 또한 초등학교 저학년 아동들의 발달단계 및 흥미를 고려한 그래픽 프로그램의 부재로 아동들이 학습을 하는데 어려움을 겪고 있다. 저학년 아동들을 위한 컴퓨터 그래픽 에디터가 필요하며 컴퓨터 그래픽에 관련된 단원을 아동들에게 가르치고 있으나 단순한 흥미수준의 몇 시간의 수업으로 끝나고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 초등학교 저학년을 위한 그래픽 에디터의 개발과 이러한 단편적인 지도를 보다 체계적인 지도 내용을 마련하여 초등학교 저학년 컴퓨터 그래픽 활용능력을 신장시키고자 한다.

Improving the design ability of idea developing and creative problem solving should be started from the primary school. Design education in the primary school should be not education for design but education by design. It helps students can naturally understand the basic concept of design and experience the process of activities. Therefore primary educational circle use the term of 'Design-related activities', or 'Design-Based Education'. It can be applied to variable themes of mathematics, science, music, society as well as Art. On the Basis of these literature review, the traditional design education as a part of the art education is analyzed in two aspects of its contents and behaviors. The contents in design education involve aesthetic·symbolic, useful·functional, and scientific·technological area. And, the basic design behaviors are classified with 'know', 'perceive', 'inquire', and so on. This concept becomes the analytic frame of the present condition of design education in Korean primary school. Through the analysis, it is found that the portion of scientific·technological area in contents and 'inquire' related behaviors are relatively very low. Also, the planning and teaching methods for leading children's opportunity of creative expression are found inadequate. This study proposes the potential capability and the integrative contents of design education in primary school.

Teaching aids Robot Education, through early education and contests, is very commonly known to elementary school students, their parents and teacher. However, not only we do not have complete knowledge of how robot education for after school performs, but also we lack a proper management skills in educating new teachers and running a structured program. Thus, through this research, we would like to identify the problems in teacher's knowledge and how the robot education is running according to provinces, size of cities, public private school, and size of schools and provide proper and most effective way of teaching after school robot class. According to the result of this research of running 'Robot class' in different area, sub-areas and size of schools, there was a meaningful difference and the biggest problem in performance was the class organization. In addition, about the expectation through after school classes, the research showed that the teachers expect lower cost of private education and improvement in creativity the most.

In this study, an unplugged education method which focuses on the data visualization training was applied to third grade students of an elementary school and analyzed its impact on enhancing their computational thinking. The analysis was conducted on 60 elementary school teachers and 124 third grade students and the unplugged education program based on the data visualization procedure was developed. The education program developed was carried out with 24 third grade students for 36 hours over six days. The effect of the program applied was analyzed through the pre-to-post comparison performed with perceptive strength test and creativity test in order to examine the enhancement in computational thinking. According to the analysis result, the unplugged education method which focuses on the data visualization training has significant effect on the 'computational perception' and 'creativity' of third grade students.
