MochiCard Provides Easier Mehtod For Child
MochiCard makes programming easier for children by using a drag-and-drop method, emphasizing algorithmic problem-solving, and making projects feel familiar to them. Projects are diverse, ranging from a bouncing ball to a coin flip, a fire effect, hot chocolate, and more. This approach is very helpful because research conducted by Filiz Kalelioglu (2015) shows that students… Continue reading MochiCard Provides Easier Mehtod For Child

Why MochiCard as an Essential Tool?
Why MochiCard as an Essential Tool? MochiCard provides a game-based environment, which studies show is more enjoyable than traditional training methods (Venkatesh, 1999). A survey conducted by Ju Long (2007) with 500 participants found that 80% of them improved their programming skills after using game-based programming. The most enjoyable aspects reported were discovering algorithms and… Continue reading Why MochiCard as an Essential Tool?
