The purpose of this study was to identify the current status of ethics education in science and technology for pre-service science teachers and find out their recognition on the needs for ethics education at school. A survey was administered for this study and a total of 594 pre-service science teachers studying in college/university of education participated. The survey was organized to examine participants' 1) experience in ethics education in science and technology, 2) recognition on the needs of ethics education in science and technology, and 3) the need for it in elementary and secondary school. Each item was responded using either 1 to 5 Likert type scale, multiple choices, or open questionnaires. The results showed that 37.4% of participants obtain science technology information from the mass media, and 23.5% from the school education. Only 8.4% of the participants had the experience of taking class on ethics in science and technology. In terms of level of confidence in understanding the ethical issues in science and technology, the average response was 2.73. However, their perception on the needs of the ethics education ranges from 3.34 to 4.58, which is much stronger than other responses on average. This strong perception on the needs was much higher for pre-service science teachers for elementary school, than those of the secondary school(p<.05). All participants recognized the need for ethics education in science and technology at both elementary and secondary school. In responses for which subject should provide ethical issues on science and technology, science class was most frequently suggested (62.4%), followed by ethics class (29.1%). In responses for the most efficient form of learning, they suggested that case studies (43.5%), followed by discussions (41.4%) would be an efficient way to learn. Even in the responses of open questionnaires asking for efficient ways of learning ethical issues, participants suggested that discussions on various ethical issues on the cases in the science and technology would provide practical and substantial learning.

In this paper, the information education plan of the Ministry of Education and offices of education was analyzed in relation to the construction of the AI convergence education room. And based on this, an appropriate construction direction was suggested. For research, AI convergence education room construction plan, budget amount per school and etc were analyzed in the information education plan of the Ministry of Education, KERIS, KOFAC, and the plan of leading schools for AI education. Although the Ministry of Education is making various efforts to promote SW education and artificial intelligence convergence education, it is found that the number is far insufficient compared to the number of elementary, middle and high schools. Efforts to expand the information education room at the government level are continuously required, and in order to utilize the developed artificial intelligence convergence education room, it is necessary to provide abundant teaching and learning examples for the construction space model. In addition, school-level planning and execution must be followed so that the constructed space can be used appropriately, and management and maintenance plans for equipment are required.

Recently, the Korean government develops a variety of policies for the improvement of school education. Among the policies, convergence education is considered as essential. Moreover, as the policies declare that mathematics is expected to play a central role in the convergence education, mathematics educators are required to seek for ways of how to approach convergence education in mathematics. In this context, this paper reviewed diverse viewpoints on what kind of contribution convergence education make to the improvement of school mathematics. While the argument constructed around the issue of national competitiveness is the most prevalent in the political discourse, this paper recommends to introduce the epistemological norms raised by the knowledge integration through history. In addition, this paper presents both domestic and international programs to discuss how to develop educational program for convergence education in mathematics.

Recently, research using robots as a learning tool has increasingly been conducted in K-12 education area. It has been known that hands-on robots give positive educational effect not only on science and mathematics, but on STEAM activity, and help improve the abilities necessary in the 21 century, such as critical thinking, creativity, communication skills, and team work. Despite many research achievements, there is still few research on robot based curriculum to improve the instrumental application of robots in the primary and secondary education fields. In other words, there is a lack of studies of systematic educational contents, educational methods and educational evaluation to increase the instrumental application according to schools and class years. Therefore, this study analyzed domestic and foreign robot based curriculums and relevant cases to develop 'robot' related educational programs in primary school and middle school, suggested the achievement objectives in the robot area as a sub category of the computer science curriculum which will be revised, and proposed teaching-learning method and evaluation method.

응급의료에 관한 법률에 따라 구조 및 응급처치에 관한 교육의 대상자로 일반시민인 구급차등의 운전자, 여객자동차운송사업용 자동차의 운전자, 보건교사, 경찰공무원 등에게 심폐소생술 교육을 실시하여 26,900명이 과정을 수료(한국, 2007)하였으나 초중고 학교 교과과정 중에는 체계적인 응급처치 교육이 없고 교육강사, 교육장비 등이 취약(한국, 2005)하여 교육체계의 확립이 필요한 실정이다. Kerschaver 등(1989)은 학생들을 대상으로 심폐소생술 훈련을 하는 것은 효과적이고 11살 부터 단순화한 내용으로 보다 쉽게 교육을 시작할 수 있을 것이라고 했으며 Lester 등 (1996)은 지식과 술기 능력 간에는 상관이 없으나 중학교 1학년 때가 적절한 훈련시기라고 했고 Urey 등(2003)은 의무과목으로 6-7살 초등학생을 위한 응급처치 프로그램, Lubrano 등(2005)은 8-11살 학생을 대상으로 하는 응급처치 교육 프로그램의 운영을 보고했다. 박 등(2006)은 초등학교 5-6학년 학생과 성인 간의 심폐소생술 교육 효과를 분석하여 학생군이 과정에 대한 이해는 우수했으나 술기에서는 적절한 흉부압박이 미흡했다는 결과를 제시하여 초등학생을 대상으로 하는 이론 교육이 효과가 있었으나 실습 교육은 체격에 제한을 받는다는 점을 시사했다. 체격은 물리적으로 측정, 확인할 수 있는 사람 몸의 상태로써 성별, 키, 몸무게 등의 전체적인 것과 각 부위의 크기, 모양, 비율 등의 부분적인 것으로 구분할 수 있으나 여기서는 키, 몸무게가 흉부압박에 영향을 끼쳤다고 볼 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 초등학교 6학년 학생을 대상으로 체격조건(키, 몸무게)과 성인 마네킨 흉부압박 깊이 간의 상관관계를 밝히고 회귀식을 도출하여 효과적인 심폐소생술이 가능한 대상을 제시하고자 한다.
