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.

This study develops and examines the validity of a Creativity Test for children from of 4 to 7. 47 items were constructed through the validity of the literature and expert's content validity. The results of this study consisted of 22 items with three factors. These factors are flow and independence, expansion of thinking, curiosity and openness. The tests scale was examined about item's response distribution, item's discrimination, and construct validity and internal consistency reliability, and it was adoptable. It can be concluded that the test tool developed in this study is suitable for measuring the creativity of Korean children from 4 to 7 years in a simple manner, and it measures relatively well the cognitive and affective characteristics of creativity. Creativity test tool for children from 4 to 7 years in this study will contribute to the active progress of research on creativity for young children and elementary school children.

영재교육은 영재들이 창의적인 지식 생산자로서의 역할을 수행할 수 있도록 하여 개인의 잠재력을 최대한 계발시켜주어 자아실현을 도모할 수 있도록 해주고 더 나아가 국가 경쟁력을 높일 수 있으므로 학교와 지역사회에서는 영재교육의 활성화를 위하여 다양한 영재교육 프로그램을 개발하고, 영재에게 적합한 교수-학습 자료를 마련하여 그들의 흥미와 빠른 학습 속도를 충족시켜줄 수 있도록 심화된 학습 기회를 제공하기 위해 노력해야 한다. 그러나, 이미 연구된 자료들을 살펴보면 초등학교 고학년을 위주로 하는 영재 교육 프로그램이 대부분이어서 저학년 영재아동을 위한 자료는 전무한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 초등학교 저학년 단계에서 수학분야에 영재성이 있거나 흥미를 가지고 있는 아동을 위한 수학 심화학습 프로그램을 개발하고자 한다.

As childhood obesity and nutrition imbalance emerge as social issues in South Korea today, the development of education materials on diets and nutrition has become important and has been attempted in diverse ways. The present study was conducted on early elementary school students with the objective of establishing directions for the design of personalized nutrition education materials that can promote a proper, balanced diet for children through application in daily life of knowledge acquired from self-learning linked to nutrition education that is taking place in their schools. For this purpose, a review of previous theoretical literature on nutrition education for early elementary students was performed. Survey questions were formulated based on the advice of field experts in medicine, education, and design and the survey was conducted among 110 children from 1st and 2nd grade in two elementary schools, one in Seoul and the other in Changwon. The results obtained from the user evaluation suggested that the early elementary school students showed positive reaction to nutrition education, had preference for the type of learning using multimedia-based contents and quiz activities, were willing to learn about calorie-adjusted meals, preferred the Gothic typeface and orange and green colors. Furthermore, they showed positive opinion on the use of numerical surveying method and pictorial style similar to actual appearance in connection with nutrition-related information representation. and preferences regarding learning styles and design elements

이 연구의 목적은 아동의 연령과 성에 따른 아동의 역량지각 발달의 경향을 조사하고, 연령, 성을 포함한 가정환경과 또래 환경의 변수들의 역량지각에 미치는 영향을 구조평형 모델을 통해 알아 보았다. 또한, 이러한 역량지각의 발달 성향을 서구 문화권과 비교하여, 역량지각발달의 문화적 보편성이나 차이점을 알아 보고자 하였다. 유아, 또는 초등학교 저학년 아동은 면접으로, 그리고 3학년이상은 설문지를 사용하였다. 조사 대상은 유아, 초등학교 1, 3, 5학년, 중학교 1학년 아동 750명과 그들의 어머니이다. 인지, 사회, 신체 영역에서 모두 역량지각은 연령이 증가할수록 낮아졌다. 인지, 신체 영역의 역량지각에선 연령과 성의 상호작용효과가 나타났다. 그러나, 서구 문화권의 연구에서는 이러한 상호작용이 발견되지 않는다. 역량지각의 공변량구조모형에서는 또래환경 변수가 모두 포함시키기에 부적합한 변수로 나타났고, 연령, 성과 가족의 수입, 아버지의 교육수준, 가정의 물리적 환경, 부모의 정서적 지지가 아동의 역량지각에 의미 있게 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.

Objective : The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of fidget spinner training on the hand function and handwriting legibility of lower grade elementary school studens. Methods : This study randomly assigned a study group of 12 children and control group of 12 children from 24 children in grade 1 and 2 (ages 7 through 8), whose are dominantly right handed. The study used was a pre-post process. The intervention was conducted only on the study group twice a week for 5 weeks and for 40 minutes per session, for a total of ten sessions. The measuring instruments used to compare the hand functions and handwriting legibility were the Jebsen-Taylor Hand Function Test, Grip Strength Test, and Legibility Test. The data analysis used a Wilcoxon signed rank, Mann-Whitney U and Chi-Square cross analysis. Results : The fidget spinner training showed significant improvement in the study group's hand function(grip strength and handwriting legibility) and a significant difference was shown between the control and study groups. Conclusion : This study confirmed the value and utility of a fidget spinner as a tool for improving the hand function and handwriting legibility of elementary school students in lower grades. Future studies are expected to verify the effectiveness of the fidget spinner training based on the present study.

21세기의 세계화, 정보화 시대를 주도할 자율적이고 창의적인 한국인을 육성하기 위하여 제7차 교육과정은 자율과 창의에 바탕을 둔 학생 중심의 교육과정을 표방하고 자기 주도적 학습 능력의 신장에 역점을 두고있다. 이에 따라 자기 주도적 학습 능력신장을 위한 수학과 교수 학습 자료들이 제작되어 보급 활용되고 있으나 구체적 조작기 아동의 특성에 맞는 초등학교 저학년 수학교과의 자기 주도적 학습 능력 신장을 위한 효과적인 프로그램은 부족한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구는 선행 연구 사례들을 분식하여 나타난 단점들을 수정, 보완하고, 초등학교 '확률과 통계'영역 중 3학년 나 단계의 '자료 정리하기' 단원을 재구성하였다. 그리고 이를 웹기반 학습 프로그램으로 개발하여 현장에 적용해 봄으로써 그 효과를 검증하고자 한다.
