Abstract

The purpose of this study is to develop a coding program linked to the Revised Nuri Curriculum and verify its effects on children's creative thinking, learning-related social skills, and logical-mathematical intelligence. In order to achieve this goal, the effectiveness was verified through the steps of establishing the program goal, primary development of the program and modification and supplementation after field application, pre-testing, implementation of an unplugged coding program linked to the Nuri Curriculum for 5-year-old children, and post-testing. The developed program was used to conduct the study, which was carried out for 4 months at J Kindergarten in Hwaseong, where the children of the age of the study subject belong. One of the classes was assigned as the experimental group, and the other as the control group. Collected data from pre and post treatment were statistically analyzed by using covariance(ANCOVA) with SPSS WIN 22.0 program. The result showed that the coding program developed in this research has a positive impact on creative thinking, learning-related social skills, and logical-mathematical intelligence of children. The program built in this study provided meaningful implications for applying and realizing coding education in early childhood education.
