현재의 초등 컴퓨터 교육은 재량시간을 통해 컴퓨터의 개념과 원리의 이해보다는 도구로서의 활용교육에 집중되어있다. 이에 본 연구는 컴퓨터의 중요한 원리 중 하나이며 자료처리의 기본이 되는 알고리즘을 초등학생에게 교수-학습하는 모형을 제안하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 특히 본 연구에서는 구체적 조작기의 초등학생의 지적수준을 고려하여 다양한 알고리즘 중 정렬 알고리즘을 중심으로 지도 방안을 연구하였으며. 활동 중심의 수업을 통해 아동들이 알고리즘에 대한 흥미와 관심을 유지하면서 자기 주도적으로 알고리즘의 방법을 찾고 이해하는 것에 중점을 두었다. 본 연구에서 설계한 수업의 단계를 따라 교수-학습한다면 알고리즘의 이해와 컴퓨터 개념학습에 도움을 줄 것으로 기대된다.

현재 학교의 컴퓨터 교육이 소프트웨어 활용 측면에서 벗어나 컴퓨터과학 교육을 강화하는 쪽으로 방향을 전환하고 있다. 특히 2005년에 개정된 정보통신기술 운영지침에 따르면 초등학교에서부터 알고리즘을 학습 내용으로 다루도록 하였으며 이에 따라 초등학교 현장에서도 알고리즘을 쉽고 효과적으로 지도하기 위한 다양한 교육 방법 연구가 필요해졌다. 현재까지 초등학생 대상의 컴퓨터과학 교육 연구는 대부분 초등학교 고학년을 대상으로 구체적인 조작과 활동 중심으로 제한되었다. 이에 본 연구에서는 정렬 수행 과정이 시뮬레이션되도록 제작한 애니메이션 컨텐츠를 통해 여러 알고리즘의 방법을 경험하도록 하는 ICT 기반의 알고리즘 교수-학습 과정을 설계하여 저학년에 적용하고 성취도와 학생들의 반응을 분석하였다.

현대인들은 인터넷의 등장과 함께 지식정보의 풍요 속에 살고 있다. 지식정보의 풍요는 언제, 어디서나 내가 원하는 정보를 탐색 및 검색, 분석, 생성할 수 있다는 것을 의미한다. 지식정보화 사회에 초등학교 현장에서 가장 흔히 활용되는 능력은 정보검색이다. 정보검색은 쉬워 보이지만, 넘쳐나는 정보의 홍수 속에서 올바르고 정확한 정보를 찾아내기란 초등학생들에게 어려운 일이 아닐 수 없다. 이에 본 연구에서는 웹기반에서의 초등학생들이 학습주제에 따라 효율적으로 활용할 수 있는 정보검색방법에 대해 논하고자 한다.

컴퓨터 프로그래밍 학습은 추상적인 개념을 이해하고 주어진 문제를 스스로 해결하도록 한다. 기존 초등학교 프로그래밍 교육에서 BASIC, C와 같은 절차적 프로그래밍 언어에 대한 연구는 많이 있지만 JAVA와 같은 객체지향 프로그래밍 언어를 통한 교육은 찾아보기 힘들다. 본 논문에서는 구조 중립적이며, 분산 인터넷 환경에 적합한 특성을 가지고 있는 객체지향 JAVA 프로그래밍 학습 시스템을 개발하여, 초등학교 학생들로 하여금 활용하도록 하였다. JAVA 학습 시스템 구현을 통한 객체지향 프로그래밍 교육은 초등학생들의 논리적 사고력을 향상시키고, 수학, 과학 과목의 학습 성취도에 긍정적인 영향을 준다는 것을 현장 학습 실험으로 확인하였다. 더불어 컴퓨터에 대한 흥미도가 상승하였다.

This research aimed to obtain basic data for elementary school students to form proper concepts by comparing the science gifted students and the ordinary students of elementary school with regard to the groundwater concept, formation process, existence forms, and movement. The research subjects were 65 fifth and sixth graders of the elementary school students and the spatial ability test was conducted on the subjects, and 4 science gifted students and 8 ordinary students chosen from the subjects were analyzed using half-structured interview data and ground water drawing drawn by the students. The conclusion derived in accordance with the research purpose is summarized as follows. It was found that there were no great differences in the answers to the question asking what groundwater is between the science gifted elementary school students with high spatial ability and the ordinary elementary school students with moderate spatial ability. The ordinary students with low spatial ability tended to regard groundwater as the concept of water and sewage. In the concept of the formation process of groundwater, the science gifted elementary school students with high spatial ability explained it by citing diverse surface water such as rainfall, river water, lake, and waterfall, and the ordinary elementary school students with moderate spatial ability all mentioned only rainfall and river water and could not explain diverse spatial factors. The ordinary elementary school students with low spatial ability mentioned rainfall and river water and perceived that groundwater was formed artificially. In the concept regarding the existence form of groundwater, the ordinary elementary school students with low spatial ability could not think of space perception that small pore space exists in earth or soil in the ground. The science gifted elementary school students with high spatial ability knew that groundwater exists in pore space with regarding groundwater movement, the ordinary elementary school students with low spatial ability thought that there was no groundwater movement and that it could be moved only by artificial facilities. There were differences in the perception of pore space and in the perception of existence and non-existence of groundwater movement accordingly, but for most of the elementary school students, the concept of groundwater was formed differently from the scientific concept. It is considered that most of the elementary school students formed erroneous concept about groundwater and could not connect ground water under the surface of the earth with the substances forming its surroundings with regard to the concept of groundwater.

The object of this study is to compare and analyze mathematically gifted and non-gifted elementary students in the family system and career attitude maturity, understand the characteristics of the former, and provide assistance for career education for both groups. The subjects include 145 mathematically gifted elementary students (73 fifth graders, 72 sixth graders) and 167 non-gifted students (78 fifth graders, 89 sixth graders) in G educational agencies. Materials for the experiment include amended family system test and career attitude maturity test. While t-test was conducted to solve the first research question, Pearson's correlation analysis was performed to solve the other one. The research findings were as follows: First, mathematically gifted elementary students, compared to non-gifted students, turned out to have higher rates of the family system and career attitude maturity rate and showed statistically meaningful positive relationship. Second, the lower components of the family system and career attitude maturity, there seems to be no relationship between family-flexibility and finality. However, among other components, there was a level of significance at 5% which shows statistically meaningful positive relationship. In summary, this found that the family system is able to have an effect on the career attitude maturity for both mathematically gifted elementary students and non-gifted students. Hence, it need to be considered the components of family system when the teacher guides mathematically gifted elementary students and non-gifted students associated with their career.

To understand seasonal changes it is necessary to understand the relationship between celestial bodies in a three-dimensional space, and to this end, modeling activities in which students directly construct, use, evaluate, and modify three-dimensional models are important. In this study, the process of elementary school students using globes and light bulbs to model Earth's motion in a three-dimensional space as a cause of seasonal changes was analyzed. Seventeen sixth graders participated in the modeling process. After exploring phenomena and concepts related to seasonal change, students constructed models using globes and bulbs and used them to explain seasonal changes. Video data recording students' modeling process, students' activity sheets, and transcripts of post-interview were used as research data, and data triangulation was conducted. The modeling level analysis framework was also developed based on previous studies. In particular, the framework was developed in detail in this study in consideration of the concept of Earth's motion as well as understanding model and implementing modeling. In the final analysis framework, the 3D modeling level was classified from level 1 to level 3, and student performance that may appear at each level was specified. As a result of the study, there were two main levels of modeling using globes for elementary school students to explain seasonal changes. The rotation and tilt of the axis of rotation and revolution of the earth were considered but the level at which empirical evidence was not used (level 2), the level at which empirical evidence was used to explain seasonal chages (level 3). However, even when students use empirical evidence, it did not lead to the construction of a scientific model. In this study, the cause was explored in relation to the characteristics of the tool used for modeling.
