In accordance with the 2015 Revised Practical Curriculum, software education for elementary school students will focus on making software and not using software. Therefore, we must revise the computer education curriculum at national universities of education to include classes on programming. In this study, I surveyed computer education students to learn more about their programming experience as well as their understanding of and necessity for software education. Based on results of the survey, I found that students had a strong understanding of software education and that they recognized its importance; however, students who had not experience related to programming education had a weak the understanding and necessity for software developing education. I suggested that software-related courses should open as a major subjects at the universities.

As the SW-centered society has emerged, SW-based problem-solving capabilities is emphasized in all areas of society. It is a trend that universities are obliged to do SW basic education for non-majors students and they are carrying out programming education. This study derives grammatical elements based on conciseness, generality, and efficiency among the design principles of programming language and based on it, compares and analyzes visual programming language and diagramming language. As a result, the efficiency of Raptor is more powerful than Scratch in the simplicity and generality, and the same tendency can be confirmed in the result of the learner's obtained in programming lesson. We hope that this study will contribute to the design and implementation of programming education based on features of programming language.

Recently, there has been a growing interest in SW education for non-SW major in order to nurture SW convergence talent. In Korea, it is a tendency to make SW mandatory for basic education to all students regardless of their major, starting with SW-oriented universities. Through a case study of programming lesson, the paper compared differences in academic achievements and difficulties of learning between SW majors and non-majors and between the humanities department and the science department. As a result, although there was no significant difference in academic achievement according to majors, the humanities department had more difficulty in implementing programs such as practices, assignments, and team project. Through the interview, lack of understanding about programming problem itself, lack of relationship with friend or tutor that can help assignments, and difficulty in learning motivation by piecemeal curriculum knowledge alone were the main causes. The results will be expected to propose the direction of SW education for non-SW majors.

이 연구에서 엔트리 명령 블록을 이용하여 보편적 프로그래밍 언어를 개발하고 검증하였다. 그래서 이 연구를 통해 블록형 프로그래밍 언어의 접근 수월성을 이용하여 절차적 사고력 향상을 위한 아이디어를 제공하고자 하였다. 새로운 프로그래밍 언어를 만들어 알고리즘을 적용하여 함수화된 사칙연산 프로그램을 만들면서, 다양한 알고리즘을 적용하면 엔트리에서 제시하는 모든 명령 블록을 만들 수 있음을 증명하였다. 이 연구를 통해 1)프로그래밍 언어에 포함된 다양한 기능의 명령어들도 함수화되어 있음을 증명하고 재생산 가능함을 경험할 수 있는 아이디어를 제공하고, 2)초보 프로그래머들이 프로그래밍 언어 개발에 대한 흥미와 관심을 갖게 되는 방안을 제시하며, 3)알고리즘을 경험하면서 절차적 사고력을 향상시킬 수 있는 다른 방향의 SW 교수 학습 방법과, 4)프로그래밍 언어를 미시적으로 탐구하면서 SW 교육 관점을 다양화하는 방법을 제시하였다. 이 연구에서 제시한 방안으로 학생들이 절차적 사고력 향상과 프로그래밍 언어의 다양성 인식, 프로그램을 심층적으로 분석하는 태도 등의 SW 교육에 대한 긍정적 변화를 기대한다.

본 연구는 H대학에서 비전공자 대상 교양필수 SW 교육과정을 프로그래밍 중심으로 개편한 2015년 이후 3개년도와 이전 3개 년도의 수업만족도에서 차이가 나는가에 대해 비교분석하여 개편 후 비전공자 대상 SW교육과정의 효과성을 파악하고자 한다. H대학은 2015년 교양 SW교육과정을 프로그래밍 중심으로 개편하였다. 개편 전후 수업 만족도의 변화가 있었는가? 라는 연구문제를 기반으로 분석한 결과, 개편 후 3년간 수업만족도는 개편 전 3년보다 높게 나타났으며, 1학기보다는 2학기 교과목들의 수업만족도 편차가 더 크게 나타났다. 1학기 만족도는 유의수준 10%에서 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 2학기 만족도는 유의수준 5%에서 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이것은 개편 후 다양한 프로그래밍 언어 중 선택할 수 있도록 교과과정을 제공한 것이 원인인 것으로 파악된다.

This study aims to suggest app programming education plan by analyzing the effects of app programming education using m-bizmaker on the creative problem solving ability in specialized high school students. Currently, The South Korean government is preparing to conduct SW education in primary and secondary schools. Developing smartphone apps that are familiar to students can be seen as a very effective tool of SW educational measures. In general, app development can only be achieved through specialized training on how to use the app programming language. So, many students think the app programming is difficult areas before creating apps because tired of learning how to an app programming language. As a result of applying app programming education using m-Bizmaker, which is one of the app authoring tools, to the class, it is desirable as an app programming education plan. And according to survey results, it has been proved that the app programming education plan using m-Bizmaker is effective to improve creative problem solving ability.

2015 개정 교육과정에 따라 2019년부터 초등학교 5~6학년은 SW교육을 의무적으로 실시하게 되었다. 특히 SW교육을 위한 프로그래밍 언어의 경우 초등학교와 중학교에서는 블록형과 텍스트형 구분 없이 활용할 수 있으나, 고등학교의 경우에는 텍스트 기반 프로그래밍 언어를 활용하도록 제시하고 있다. 하지만 많은 학습자들이 처음 텍스트형 프로그래밍 언어를 접하게 되면 문법의 어려움과 외국어의 벽에 부딪쳐 어려워한다. 본 연구에서는 학습자들이 처음 텍스트형 프로그래밍을 학습할 때 효율적인 프로그래밍 학습을 위하여 한글 프로그래밍 언어를 사용할 것을 제안한다. 한글 프로그래밍 언어를 교육적으로 활용하였을 때의 장점과 교육적 활용에 있어 고려해야 할 문제점, 한계점 및 보완해야 할 점을 분석해보고자 한다.

In a rapidly changing society with the Fourth Industrial Revolution, future students should have the skills to utilize and organize high-quality knowledge, not the amount of knowledge. With the launch of the revised curriculum in 2015, the curriculum has been reorganized based on competency and the software education has been seeking capabilities such as 'Cultural computing knowledge', 'Computational thinking', and 'Collaborative problem solving skills'. Therefore, practical collaboration tools and education programs that can be used in the field of education are developed based on Pair Programming, which is a specific collaborative learning strategy to develop cooperative problem solving skill. The educational program using this collaboration tool was developed with a focus on developing computational thinking and collaborative problem solving skills through Pair Programming rather than focusing on learning grammar of programming language and programming techniques. In a educational program, students will be able to use collaborative tools for pair programming and foster collaborative problem-solving skills.

To determine the educational effects of collaborative story creation activities using the Entry programming language, we instructed first year students at the national university of education on these activities for three weeks and analyzed the changes in their software (SW) education capacity and story creating ability. The completed analysis showed no significant changes in the students' SW education capacity as related to information literacy, computational thinking, and learner competency; however, the students' ability to create stories increased significantly. Although students struggled to learn story creation using Entry, they gradually found that the activities were useful and their interest in creating stories grew. Therefore, we suggest expanding the number of subject curriculum activities using Entry in order to improve SW education capacity as well as the subject capacity for student teachers.
