The Level of Programming Among Pupils at Primary School in the Context of Motivation and Professional Focus
Original language description
Currently, teaching programming in primary and secondary schools is already standard practice in many countries. Although teaching methods and tools vary, the goal remains the same: to teach students how to program, i.e., to create appropriate algorithms for solving various tasks. In our research, we focused on the influence of personal interest and career orientation as motivation for better performance in programming and algorithm design. The main objective of the research was to determine the influence of student motivation, personal preferences, and career orientation tests on programming results. The secondary objective of the research was to verify in the practical part whether elementary school students (eighth and ninth grade) are able to program an industrial machine that they will encounter at secondary vocational schools. A structured questionnaire and an unconventional device, the PLC Logo from Siemens, were used as testing tools. Research has shown that students who have the prerequisites for studying at a technical secondary school achieve better results in programming than students who do not have these prerequisites.
