摘要:In Korea, the guideline for operating education on information technology was repealed in 2008 and as a result, opportunities for students to receive computing education came to gradually decrease. However, in a situation where the importance of the software industry is emphasized, such weakening of computing education has caused a lot of concerns. An argument that computing education should be strengthened in order to heighten the competitiveness of the software industry has been strongly raised in the industrial world as well as in the academic world. At present, diverse social support for strengthening computing education is actively unfolding in Korea. Affected by advanced countries' cases, the desire of the academic world, and social support, the curriculum for 2015 will be revised to strengthen computing education in Korea. Korea's computing education has met a new turning point coming out of decline. This study paid attention to diverse social support campaigns as a major factor to trigger positive changes in Korean computing education and presented policy measures to strengthen computing education by analyzing such social support in terms of computing education.
