Ah‐Fur Lai, Shu-Ming Yang · 2011

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of visualized programming on the learners' problem-solving abilities and logical reasoning skills. The subjects are six graders in Taipei city and they accept a Scratch programming course in a semester. The research result shows that the effect of problem-solving abilities is significant, especially at the reason of prediction. Nevertheless, there is no significant effect on logical reasoning skills.
