Abstract

The objectives of computer education had been transited from general information literacy to problem-solving capabilities. Therefore, the programming and software education is more getting important and critical for computational thinking . So far, many researches verified that Scratch programming is very useful subject to improve the problem-solving capability and computational thinking skills. In this paper, we analyzed the previous researches in perspectives of academic achievements. And we suggested further research directions based on their limitations.
