Recently, domestic schools are increasingly interested in environmental education related to COVID-19 and the severe climate crisis, as well as artificial intelligence education related to the 4th industrial revolution that is rapidly approaching us. In particular, AI education is highly likely to be applied to 5th to 6th graders of elementary school, so measures related to connection with 1st to 4th graders are needed. There are many students who are not proficient in computers in the lower grades of elementary school, so there may be many restrictions in using the currently used teaching aids. Therefore, this study tried to develop an artificial intelligence education program for the lower grades of elementary school to secure the linkage of artificial intelligence education. The theme of the program was developed based on the topic of environmental education, which has recently increased in interest. As for the educational method, considering the developmental stage of the lower grades of elementary school, the STEAM education method was used, which was fused with various subjects and unplugged using play and games without a computer. of the program. For validity verification, Lawshe (1975)'s content validity ratio (CVR) calculation formula was used. The verification results were analyzed to be suitable for the purpose of development of all programs. In the future, it is necessary to measure the degree of effectiveness by applying the program proposed in this study to the lower grades of elementary school.

In this study, environmental knowledge and consciousness and eco-friendly behavior related to dietary life of middle school students were examined. Male and female students in Gyeongsan and Daegu Metropolitan City were selected for the study. Total of 490 questionnaires were delivered and collected, and 445 of them were analyzed by using SPSS Win Ver 12.0. Percentages of students who checked' don't know the answer' in 20 environmental knowledge assessment questions were $14.4\~41.8\%$, and those who gave correct answer to these responded to how the answer were $40.1\~93.3\%$. The average score of environmental consciousness was 3.45 and that of eco-friendly dietary behavior was 2.9 out of 5. When dietary behavior was divided by three categories, such as food purchasing, eating. and dish washing, the score of food purchasing behavior was 2.7, those of eating behavior and dish washing behavior were 3.0, 3.1, respectively. In the relationship between environmental knowledge. consciousness. and eco-friendly dietary behavior, there was significant positive correlation between howledge and consciousness, but no significant relation between consciousness and behavior. It showed that environmental knowledge and consciousness didn't always lead to eco-friendly dietary behavior. Therefore, education for practical betlavior must be emphasized even though the knowledge and consciousness education on environment are important.

Concidering environmental education as an ultimate resolution for environmental problems, we conducted a study focusing on affective matters. An instrument was developed to evaluate attitudes of elementary and middle school students toward environmental problems. To develop a reliable Likert-type evaluation instrument scale with which emotional intensity could be judged, mean, standard deviation, response frequency distribution, discrimination index, reliability were calculated. As a result, 21 statements for recognition level and 14 statements for behavioral level were made(The Cronbach alpha coefficient of the instrument was .786). This instrument was used to evaluate 5th and 6th grade elementary school students and 1st and 2nd grade middle school students(total number of subjects was 980). The result of this survey can be summarized as follows. 1. Students recognized the seriousness of environmental problems but they did not behave in such a manner as to prevent it. 2. As a result of t-test, behavioral level score of elemenatary school students was significantly higher than that of middle school students(p<.001). 3. This study showed that there was a significant correlation between the recognition level score and the behavioral level score(r=.386, p<.001). 4. Two-Way ANOVA was used to analyze that there was any significant difference according to grade and sex. The results were as follows. (1) No significant difference was found in total score. (2) On recognition level, female students' score was signigicantly higher than that of male students(p<.01). (3) On behavioral level, higher-grade students' score was lower than that of lower-grade-students (p<.001).
