Abstract

STEAM is a multidisciplinary education program which intended to promote creative thinking by combining studies in the arts and STEM(Science, Technology, Engineer, Mathematics) fields. STEAM education can bring out creativities in students through educational activities of integrating and combining diverse studies. In this research, we integrated the educational elements of science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and arts using robots and then developed an educational program that raises the creative and character (focused on collaboration and communication) of students in a more fun and effective way. Using our developed educational program, we taught 6th grade students of an elementary school located in Seoul. As the result, most of students were found to be enhanced in their creativity and character after participating in the STEAM-based programming education course.

STEAM이란 선진국에서 먼저 시작한 STEM에 예술을 융합시켜 창의적 사고를 증진하도록 의도된 다 학문적 교육 프로그램이다. STEAM은 다양한 학문들을 융합하고 연결하는 교육적인 활동들을 통해 학생들의 창의성을 유발할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 로봇을 활용하여 과학, 기술, 수학, 미술, 음악의 STEAM 교육요소를 융합하였고 다음에 보다 흥미 있고 효과적인 방법으로 학생들의 창의성과 인성(협동과 의사소통에 초점)을 키우는 STEAM 기반 프로그래밍교육 프로그램을 개발하였다. 개발된 교육프로그램을 활용하여 서울소재 초등학교 6학년 학생들을 대상으로 수업을 진행하였다. 실험의 결과로 대부분의 학생들이 STEAM 기반 프로그래밍 교육과정에 참여한 후에 창의성과 인성부분에서 향상되는 결과를 보여주었다.
