초등과학 수업에서 언플러그드 컴퓨팅을 활용한 SW 융합교육프로그램의 개발과 적용 - 우리 몸의 구조와 기능 단원을 중심으로 -

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of the SW-STEAM program using unplugged computing for elementary science class. For this we developed the SW-STEAM program using unplugged computing about the unit of the structure and function of our body on the 2009 revised curriculum in elementary science 5th grade. The participants of this study were 5th grade students of S elementary school located in B city, and they were engaged in different instruction during 12 class hours (SW-STEAM program: n=22, traditional instruction: n=22). The main results of this study were as follows: The SW-STEAM program had a positive effect on elementary school students’ self-efficacy, scientific interest, science achievement. Therefore, the SW-STEAM program using unplugged computing for elementary science education could be meaningful works to encourage students’ self-efficacy, scientific interest, science achievement, and more studies on developing SW-STEAM program are needed.
