During the last decade, the private sector computer classroom contributes toward the ICT education and the expansion of educational IT infrastructure for school. The matter of after school that goes into effect beginning for the next year however, is increased more and more because there are not enough to discuss on the after school. Some people confuse the role of After-school Computer Classroom with computer science education of school. We should evaluate the contribution of the private sector computer classroom and find out the necessity due to the results. And we should explore the direction for solution on problems pedagogically. In this study we present the models that improve the current problems of private sector computer classroom according to the pedagogical role and the improvement direction for after school.

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.

Recently, such education is required as the one to nurture the capability for higher order thinking such as creativity and problem-solving ability on the eduction field of not only elementary and middle school but also colleges. Thus, this study is aimed to discuss the computer programming education to enhance higher order thinking in conducting computer programming education for college students. To this end, this study is intended to suggest the computer programming education of based project learning based on preceeding studies and literature reviews. Through this research, the researcher expects that this study forms the small foundation for offering computer programing education covering the computer and engineering education across the board.

This study proposed the unplugged learning strategy of computer science that makes more easily to understand learning contents and to improve logical thinking of learners in elementary school. We reorganized the contents of data structure in computer science. The students write project papers from their own experiences and daily lives in the classroom, not in the computer room as applying unplugged learning methods. The result of this study shows that students can better understand computer through a study method of computer science on their step of growth. Through this study, the learners can be the abilities of organizing digital data and increasing the logical thinking, based on information education.

현대사회는 지식정보의 사회로서 이러한 사회에서는 지식을 단순히 암기하는 것보다 주어진 지식과 정보를 이용하여 새로운 지적 가치를 창출할 수 있는 자율적이고 창의적인 인재가 필요하다. 창의성 신장의 측면에서 볼 때, 수학은 문제 해결의 다양성, 사고의 유연성을 길러주므로 매우 중요한 과목이다. 하지만 많은 학생들이 수학의 가치와 필요성을 인식하지 못하고 흥미를 잃어가고 있다. 이에 자발적인 학습을 유도할 수 있는 PBL학습을 도입하고자 한다. 그리고 컴퓨터 프로그래밍은 수학 학습에서 학습자의 알고리즘적 사고력을 향상시킨다. 따라서 본 연구자는 수학 흥미도를 향상시키기 위해 스크래치를 활용한 PBL기반의 수학 학습 컨텐츠 개발을 제안한다.

현대사회는 지식정보화 사회이다. 사회는 점점 복잡해지고 개인은 여러 문제를 만나게 된다. 이러한 사회에서는 지식을 단순히 암기하는 능력보다 생활 속에 부딪히는 문제들을 지금까지 배워온 지식과 정보를 활용해서 해결해 나가는 능력이 절실히 요구된다. 기존의 주입식 교육에서 벗어나서 학습자 스스로 필요한 지식을 찾고 적용하는 능력을 키우기 위해 PBL학습을 도입하고자 한다. 그리고 스크래치언어를 활용하여 프로그램을 작성함으로써 초등학생들의 문제에 대한 고찰능력과 사고력을 향상시키고자 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 스크래치를 활용한 PBL기반 학습프로그램을 개발하였다.

본 논문에서는 21세기에 인재양성에 필요한 학습능력의 동향을 알아보고 전통적 교육에서 스마트 교육으로 변화함에 따라 스마트 러닝 교수설계 모형을 제안하고자 한다. 21세기 사회는 지식기반사회, 지식정보사회 등 '지식'이 핵심 키워드라 할 수 있다. 기존의 전통적 지식과 21세기에 필요한 학습능력을 통합하여 디지털 교과서, 온라인 수업, 클라우드 교육 서비스, 스마트 교육환경의 콘텐츠와 교수학습 모형을 융합하는 새로운 교수설계 모형이 필요하며 지속적인 연구가 필요하다.

Elementary information education is currently provided in accordance with the 2000 ICT educational guidelines. Although the focus of education has shifted from practical use to computer science since 2005, in which way academic education should be led isn't yet clear. The purpose of this study was to examine the impacts of computer science education(CS education) by an education programming tool on school children's awareness of that education. The selected students received education about unplugged, scratch and robot programming, part of the computer science curriculum, in 12 sessions. As a result, there were significant differences between the experimental and control groups in all the variables that included attitude to computer science, interest in that, satisfaction level, self-efficacy and perception of the value of CS education. The findings of the study suggested that in CS education, the improvement of thinking faculty should take precedence over practical use of what's learned, which is expected to heighten the value of that education.

The current 7th Curriculum require elementary students to participate in an independent computer education class one time per week through means of discretion activity. However a national standard of this educational process has yet to be established, which has made regional provincial and city offices of education to choose textbooks for this purpose by discretion, that showed difference in quality, in operating education curriculums related to computer education for each classes in school such as continuing the repetitive contents without any rank or system. Also informatization education, which is one of national policies, might develop educational unbalance to young children who are to become the main characters in the future information society, due to excessive emphasis on aspect of using computer, which develops education mainly based on learning functions of applicable software. Therefore, we are proposing a discretion activity education curriculum model for utilization of computer education in elementary school which is showing regional difference based on former studies. This study will be helpful in substantiating of computer education in elementary schools in the future.

Recently SW education has been emphasized in Korea, but many students do not have many opportunities to learn computer science. In this paper, I organized a computer science show to enhance interest and understanding of computer science. The computer science show consisted of understanding binary systems, send a text message, parity bit magic, finding a number card, and collecting colors (orange games). I applied the computer science show to elementary school students and looked at the results. Most of the students who participated in computer science shows did not have an "participation experience of computer science shows". As result of surveys, many students answered "I am interesting about computer science shows," "I am interested in computer science," and "I would recommend it to my friends nearby." Through research, I learned that computer science shows are a way for elementary students to draw interest in computer science and to create curiosity and interest in computer science. I found from research that computer science shows are a way to reduce students' learning burdens and to increase interest in computer science.
