Abstract
     As AI technology develops, services using artificial intelligence have been developed in various fields and applied to society. Therefore, the education field also needs to improve the curriculum for SW education and AI education and strengthen the SW education capacity through teacher training programs. While SW education was planned and has been operated as a regular subject in elementary, middle, and high school from 2018 in Korea, the curriculum is improved, and training programs are operated for strengthening SW education of teacher trainees and the SW education capacity of incumbent teachers. This study analyses the result of SW contests for the latest 5 years to determine the SW development capability of the elementary school teacher trainees, and conducted a group discussion for planning curriculum improvement by the teachers to make a plan for strengthening the capacity for SW education in elementary school. This study can be used to design curriculums to suggest a direction for the SW development capability of elementary school teacher trainees and the user connected to subjects and enhance creative problem-solving capacity to strengthen elementary school teacher trainees` SW education capacity.
