Interactive Learning Environments, v32 n3 p1159-1170 2024
Today computing is intricate in all aspects of our lives, beginning with communications and education to banking, information security, health, shopping, and social media. Development of the computing is proportional to the development of software which is becoming a serious part of all daily lives. This paper, therefore, assessed the impact of teaching Computer Programming Language in Tanzanian primary schools. To achieve this, a new tool for teaching and learning a computer programming language was developed. Furthermore, a two-tier approach was adopted where the training started on an algorithm first, then if, loops and case conditionals as the third concept inside the first tier. On the other hand, variables, lists, and functions are hooked on the second tier. Results indicate that students acquired together reasoning learning in a conceptual argument of view and skill performance. Students were able to accomplish the expertise to practice or apply the theories of programming knowledge in programming-connected tasks.
