Abstract

The development of AI technology has brought about a big change in our lives. The importance of AI and data education is also growing as AI's influence from life to society to the economy grows. In response, the OECD Education Research Report and various domestic information and curriculum studies deal with data literacy and present it as an essential competency. However, the definition of data literacy and the content and scope of the components vary among researchers. Thus, we analyze the semantic similarity of words through Word2Vec deep learning natural language processing methods along with the definitions of key data literacy studies and analysis of word frequency utilized in components, to present objective and comprehensive definition and components. It was revised and supplemented by expert review, and we defined data literacy as the 'basic ability of knowledge construction and communication to collect, analyze, and use data and process it as information for problem solving'. Furthermore we propose the components of each category of knowledge, skills, values and attitudes. We hope that the definition and components of data literacy derived from this study will serve as a good foundation for the systematization and education research of AI education related to students' future competency.

AI 기술의 발달은 우리 삶의 큰 변화를 가져왔다. 생활에서부터 사회, 경제에 이르기까지 AI의 영향력이 커짐에 따라 AI와 데이터 교육에 대한 중요성이 함께 커지고 있다. 이에 OECD 교육 연구 보고서 및 다양한 국내 정보과 교육과정 연구에서 데이터와 데이터 리터러시를 다루고 필수 역량으로 제시하고 있다. 하지만 국내외 관련 연구를 살펴보면 데이터 리터러시에 대한 정의와 구성 요소의 내용과 범위가 연구자에 따라 다른 것을 알 수 있다. 이에 데이터 리터러시 관련 주요 연구의 정의와 구성 요소에 활용된 단어 빈도 분석과 함께 Word2Vec 딥러닝 자연어 처리 방법을 통해 단어의 관계와 의미 유사도를 분석하여 객관적이고 포괄적인 정의와 구성 요소를 제시하였다. 그리고 전문가 검토를 통해 수정 보완하여 데이터 리터러시를 '문제를 해결하기 위해 데이터를 수집하고 분석 및 활용하여 정보로 처리하는 지식 구성과 의사소통의 기초 능력'으로 정의하였으며, '지식, 기능, 가치와 태도'로 각각의 구성 요소를 범주화하였다. 본 연구를 통해 도출된 데이터 리터러시의 정의와 구성 요소가 AI 교육 체계화와 학생들의 미래 역량 관련 교육 연구에 좋은 기초 자료가 될 수 있기를 기대한다.
