Design and Development of a Text Programming Teaching System for Primary school Students
Pages 245 - 251
Abstract
Computational Thinking (CT) is a key component of 21st century education. With that visual programming has become a major tool for primary school students to learn programming. In response to the current difficulties of primary school students in transitioning from visual programming learning to C++ programming learning, this paper develops an online programming teaching system based on the Goc programming for primary school students for introductory C++ programming learning (www.51goc.com). The system has the characteristics of visualization of programming results, game-based teaching and service of teaching. The usefulness and reliability of the system has been verified through its implementation in Foshan, Guangdong for nearly three years, which has helped in the teaching of programming.
