In the knowledge-based society, ICT should take an integral part in K-12 curriculum. The purpose of this paper was to investigate the means to integrate ICT into K-12 curriculum. For the purpose, we reviewed the current national curriculum in light of ICT use. From the review, we identified that the recently revised 7th national curriculum reflected the necessity of using ICT in the view point of knowledge-based society, but it did not include the ICT specifically as a critical element of the curriculum. We discussed the meaning of ICT integrated curriculum, and also the role of ICT as a component of the curriculum. Finally, we suggested the direction of restructuring the curriculum as we consider integrating ICT into it.

There exist many differences between new Informatics curriculum and the current Computer curriculum. Since the new curriculum introduces new section of "Problem-solving methods and procedures" which are not included in current computer curriculum, it is required to define and specify objectives and content units of "problem solving methods" and "programming" topics for the new section. In this paper, we define and specify the objectives and detailed contents by surveying various computer curriculums used in many other countries. Then, the specified objectives and content units are validated by a group of computer education experts. The final results of specified objectives show that areas of "comprehension", "application" and "synthesis" take relatively high percentage over the other areas. In the content specification, we set the content structure by describing how to solve a given real-world problem with a non-computerized way, followed by representing or transforming it with a corresponding computerized model.

In this paper, we propose the way to solve the problems of current college of education at university that they are running a curriculum that is insufficient for immediate application to the school. So, we analyzed the application of capstone design which is proven to be effective in various fields, and constructed a curriculum for the development of educational materials to improve the teacher's qualification in the college of education and applied them to the preliminary informatics teachers. As a result, we confirmed that the development class of educational materials based on capstone design is positive for the change of awareness about informatics teacher's qualification, and also confirmed that the students' satisfaction level about class is higher. Based on the results, we discussed the effects of applying capstone design to the college of education. The conclusions are as follows: First, it helps students to improve the teacher's qualification. Second, it is a curriculum that can fill the shortage of student teaching. Third, the curriculum is an effective curriculum for the recognition of the student who is in charge of evaluation, and the teacher who is in charge of the evaluation. Fourth, Capstone design information textbook study class is a method of greatly improving class satisfaction compared to lecture class.

In this study, we have look through the national progress of computer science education in South Korea and analyzed the main subjects and contents of each period. We suggests the ways to evolve the current computer science education in terms of class hours for computer science education, hierarchical instructions, and the limitation of current national curriculum. In South Korea, it has been leaded the computer science education in the world since the it was promoted in earnest since 1995. Based on the recently revised national curriculum, South Korean government are taking efforts to nurture a leader through computer science education in terms of the students' future skills. However, it should be promoted to strengthen the ability of not only problem-solving ability through programming education, but also balanced computing and digital literacy through enhancing the ICT skills. In order to improve the curriculum of computer science education in elementary school of South Korea, a sufficient class hours of computer science education should be secured first.

Following the announcement made in 2007of the information education curriculum for high schools, India followed through with a similar announcement in June 2013 for an elementary school curriculum to be linked with that of the high schools. As a characteristic feature of India's educational curriculum, the structure is "helical" in nature, while interaction between teachers and students is emphasized as a key method for education. During the past few years India has revised its educational curriculum based on Bruner's 'Structure of Knowledge,' which has changed the paradigm of the nation's educational curriculum. This study analyzed India's educational curriculum that aims at a helical structure and, at the same time, emphasizes 'narrative' thinking in schools. The goal of this study is to discover possible suggestions or implications for Korea's information education curriculum by analyzing India's education that concurrently seeks to employ 'Structure of Knowledge' and 'Narrative' theories in a single educational curriculum.

Although the need for overall amendment of curriculums recognized, tentative plan for amendment is being established without improving the sense of satisfaction of the users of curriculums from the nation-wide dimension and without review on philosophical and educational psychological viewpoints on curriculum with focus on curriculums that reflects the national and social demands until the tentative plans for amendment of computer subject is made at the time of amendment. Therefore, new/old curriculums has been compared and analyzed from philosophical and psychological viewpoint of curriculums in order to definitively establish status and identity of curriculum, and to cope with changes in educational system. It can be seen from the outcome of such comparative analysis that goals of the philosophical viewpoint of amended curriculum had been defined as discipline-centered curriculum while that for the knowledge-based viewpoint on constructivism and cognitivism.
