ABSTRACT

As the technology of information communications has developed and its equipment has come into wide use lately, the social structure has been changing from industrial society to informational one. This caused the transformation toward the society in which computers solve complicated problems by using various and a large amount of materials from the society in which people solved simple ones by using a small amount of materials. Owing to this change, each nation in the world became interested in computer science and coding education and added them to school curriculum as a new subject. However, the studies about ways of teaching and learning to educate computer science and coding effectively are insufficient and preliminary elementary teachers have no interest in how to operate computers or teaching coding. So this study suggested the way of teaching and learning which can educate the process of how computers work a command through unplugged role-play. And this study analyzed statistically the learning motivation and study achievements of how computers work between a experimental group used the way suggested by this study and a control group used a general teaching way. As a result, the way suggested by this study was more meaningful in terms of the learning motivation and study achievements of computer science than a general one.
