  • This paper introduces a LED CUBE tool interacting with a distance sensor to solve real life problems in the physical computing field. Students can experience interactive education and intuitively understand the cubic operations with 3-dimensional animations obtained from a $3{\times}3{\times}3$ LED CUBE and a distance sensor connecting to Arduino. If the proposed LED CUBE is applied in physical computing section of the Information curriculum of middle school, students are expected to improve their computational thinking ability to solve problems in real life and other areas creatively and efficiently.

  • The popularity of data science, influenced by the trends from the United States around 2010, has significantly impacted the education of various statistics departments at domestic universities. However, it is challenging to find research papers in domestic academic journals that address the efficient teaching of data science topics in relation to computing environment. This article will discuss and propose the establishment of a suitable computing infrastructure for the education and research in statistics and data science departments in domestic universities.

  • Digital transformation is about revolutionizing the interaction between virtual and reality. The complex problems that arise in this process must be solved, and one of the methods is computing thinking. Therefore, this study aims to observe whether software education that uses unplugged as liberal education is effective in enhancing computing thinking. For this, 5 elements of computing thinking were extracted and unplugged was applied to liberal software classes, and classes were conducted. During one semester, 16 sessions of classes were conducted and computing thinking enhancement was measured through surveys. As a result, the computing thinking of the students increased overall after classes. Observation surveys showed that, among computing thinking elements, students of all academic fields felt difficulties conceptualizing abstraction elements, those of arts and physical education felt more difficulties with algorithm elements, and those of the humanities felt more difficulties with pattern recognition elements. In the future, various contents for each element should be developed by academic field to aid learner understanding.

  • There is a great deal of effort to improve Computational Thinking in education. In this paper, we define the relationship between SW capability and Computational Thinking, and then examine the current status of pre-service teacher's computing thinking. For this purpose, a survey about the attitude toward SW education and computing thinking was administered to prospective teachers who learned Entry software for one semester. The results of the survey showed that the improvement of abstraction, data analysis, and automation among the pre-service teacher's computing thinking is needed. When educating preliminary teachers, we can see that we need an education method that can increase the analysis and design capability beyond the Entry Software development tool.

  • A whole society has become software-driven and each independent fields has become convergence based on computing as the new digital economy era has come. This change affect computational literacy using computational thinking is emphasized the importance as the core competence for the future living. It means that supply of manpower with understanding software principle will decide the fate of the country. For this reason, each country are reinforcing computer science education or computing education. In this paper, we researched and analysed on new global trends of computer education in school especially focused on national curriculum and policy.

  • This paper have been knowing about policy background about Computer Science Education in UK. Every schools in UK have been teaching Computing as a subject matter from september, 2014. Department of Education in UK had replacement ICT to Computing subject. The institute have accepted that problems about ICT subject which school teacher recognised and the needs of academic sector, and the entrepreneur's needs for talented person of 21st century. We have known that Computing at School(CAS) had started grass root organization, which had been trying to changing the computer science curriculum. In the processes, it was corporation very closely among organizations, such as government, universities, entrepreneurs, awarding bodies for evaluation, and non-profit initiatives. Through this research, we have get some lessons for advancing of software education in South Korea.

  • Because the concepts and components of computational thinking included in the Information Education Curriculum and the Software Education Guidelines are different, it has been difficult to establish computational thinking-based software education in schools. Therefore, this study, which is based on the Delphi survey results from 39 experts, we defined computational thinking as 'computing thinking' and separated the components of computational thinking into five main categories: (1) problem definition, (2) data analysis, (3) abstraction, (4) automation, and (5) generalization. In addition, we selected software areas that are strongly related to computational thinking in the KAIE's information Curriculum Standard Model and surveyed experts to decide which computing thinking components are related to the achievement criteria of the software areas.

  • The 2015 revised curriculum offers elementary students an unplugged computing education as a way to learn the concepts and principles of computer science in an easy and fun way and to improve their computational thinking. Yutnori is a traditional board game unique to Korea, which contains various contents such as history, culture, and science of our people, which helps to cultivate cultural identity of learners, and can effectively promote cooperation and communication among members. In this paper, we examined the possibility that Yutnori could be used as an unplugged computing tool in elementary school software education and convergence education. Korean traditional board game Yutnori has elements that can learn the sun and movements of heavenly bodies as well as sequential, selection, and repetitive algorithm elements. Unplugged activities that apply Korean traditional culture Yutnori is expected to help foster creative convergence talents by improving elementary school students' computational thinking, communication and community.

  • Data is the core of AI technology. With the development of technology, AI technology is also accelerating as the amount of data increases explosively than before. However, compared to the interest in AI education, research on data education with AI is still insufficient. According to the case analysis of exsisting AI data education, there were cases of educating the process and part of data science, but it was hard to find studies related to data collection. Cause physical computing tools have a positive effect on AI education for elementary school students, data collection cases using tools were studied, but researches related to data collection were rare. Therefore, in this study, an efficient data collection method using physical tools was designed. A structural diagram of a data collection program was created using COBL S, a modular physical computing teaching tool, and examples of program screens from the service side and the user side were configured. This study has limitations in that the establishment of an AI education platform that can be used in conjunction with future program production and programs should be prioritized as a proposal in terms of design.

  • Internet-based client/server architecture of Contents Delivery System suffers from frequent disconnections and security treats caused by dependency of the server or overload. But, We reached the limit to the increase of the server because a contents quality enhance and Internet user explosively increase. Therefore, a P2P based computing methods are used for sloving these issues. In this paper, We implement and design the Education Content Delivery System for cyber education system using idle Computing Power in P2P computing to share computing resources. We implement not only Internet infrastructure but also satellite infrastructure system, and designed to transfer real-time or non real-time contents.
