Abstract

In the future society where ICT-based digital convergence creates new value, collaborative skills among experts in various fields and SW based problem solving ability is more emphasized. Non-SW specialists are required to have SW based communication skills to effectively collaborate with SW experts to solve their problems. Therefore, SW programming curriculum for non-major college students should be different from the existing programming education for SW-majors aiming at a high level of coding ability. It is also known that diagram-based visual representation is helpful for productive communication and collaboration. In this study, we defined the SW education objectives for the non-majors as cultivating the visual programming ability for SW based problem solving. In order to accomplish this, we explored SW programming curriculum and content development model for non-majors focusing on visual representation of SW solutions. The results of this paper will help to provide appropriate SW learning model for non-majors and to cultivate practical SW capabilities.

ICT 기반 디지털 융합이 가치를 창출하는 미래사회에는 다양한 분야의 전문가가 협업하며 SW적 문제 해결을 주도하는 역량이 더욱 강조된다. 비전공자에게는 전문 분야의 문제를 풀기 위해 SW 전문가와 효과적으로 협업할 수 있는 SW적 소통 능력이 필요하다. 따라서 비전공자를 위한 SW 교육은 높은 수준의 코딩 역량을 목표로 하는 기존의 SW 전공자 대상 프로그래밍 교육과는 달라야 한다. 또한 다이어그램 기반의 시각적 표현이 원활한 소통과 협업에 도움이 된다는 것은 이미 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 비전공자를 위한 SW 교육목표를 'SW적 문제해결을 위한 시각적 프로그래밍 역량 함양'이라 정의하고, 이를 달성하기 위한 비전공자 SW 프로그래밍 교육과정과 SW 해결안의 시각적 표현에 중점을 둔 SW 교육 콘텐츠 개발 모형을 탐색하였다. 본 논문의 결과는 비전공자를 위한 적절한 SW 학습 방안을 마련하고 실질적인 SW 역량을 함양하기 위한 방향을 설정하는 데 도움이 될 것이다.
