Computer education is gradually focusing on a wide variety of areas of expertise such as production of visual media and software development, instead of on the use of ICT like before. Particularly, computer courses related to production of image media require a complex practice procedure and repeated practice, making the future hands-on work difficult. Therefore, this study tried to verify the effect of the change in running methods of the "computer graphic" course from offline to blended learning. This analyzed the students' lecture satisfaction survey results of before and after the change. As a result, blended learning was well received and led to the small variations in the scores of the satisfaction surveys between the lecturers. Additionally, many students responded that the blended learning was more effective in their satisfaction surveys.

Teachers talked about the teaching and learning materials which were many but they were not always useful. Many teaching and learning materials called forth the quantitative expansion of them because of developing and delivering them after activating the education of using ICT. These results gave many teachers many advantages in comparison being in a difficult class because of few them. But, in spite of many good points, many teachers said that there were many materials but they were not useful and they could not find easily the fit material for themselves. These teacher's response based on the delivery method of teaching and learning materials is to be improved and the searching method of them is to be improved. To solve these problem, we proposed a method aobut the system for managing the quality of teaching and learning materials. It gives many teachers the advanced teaching and learning materials and the method for finding them more easy.

Computer education in universities has been expanded and specialized from ICT-based education in recent years to software education such as computational thinking and programming. Especially, as the 4th Industrial Revolution is emphasized in all fields of society, software education, which is its core, is being applied as an essential liberal arts course in universities. In the case of basic SW education for all students, it is necessary to provide differentiated education that is suitable for students because their special characteristics are different. In this study, we conducted a basic SW course for general liberal arts at A-university in Seoul and analyzed the survey data from 4,927 students for about 3 years, and classified the major series and searched the appropriate education method for each subdivided group. Through the analysis, we were able to find characteristic groups such as business and commerce, art and sports major. Finally, six groups for basic-SW education are presented. Educational directions such as programming language and level of difficulty setting suitable for differentiated education are presented for each group.
