Abstract

The purpose of this study is to find the impact of digital game based learning on children problem solving skill and their interest in programming. The case study of this research is Scratch Programming language.Scratch programming is a visual programming language and tool developed by MIT that is targeted for children age 8-12. A lot of study has been conducted regarding the impact of using Scratch programming language in the field of education such as mathematics and physics. This study is based on a research by Bulut Serin regarding the impact of Scratch programming on grade 5 students problem solving skills, the research that they have conducted conclude that there in no significance difference in children problem solving skills. This study uses qualitative and quantitative method to gather the data. The quantitative method is using Problem Solving Inventory which have 3 factors in problem solving skills avoidance, self-control, and self-confidence. The Problem Solving Inventory is used for pre-test and post test, and the qualitative is by focus group interview and evaluation. The experiment was held for 8 sessions with 90 minutes per session involving 30 participants. The conclusion from this study there is a significant difference in children problem solving skills, after the experiment children would like to learn more in programming, even though based on the low score of Problem Solving Inventory we could see that children age 9-12 have a low perception about their problem solving skills.
