The Benefits Of Learning Programming
Programming is an important basic skill for
computer science students. However, most students
found it is hard to learn and score a good mark.
This paper discusses the study to identify
problems and causes faced by programming
students.

Benefits of Learning to Code
Programming is part of the basic curriculum for
computer science and information technology. The
ability to understand and implement the
programming language is important skill for the
students to acquire. We offer the C programming
subject and Program Design and Problem Solving
subject to all students as a compulsory course.

Important Questions, Make Connections
What type of the reference material used by
students and how did they use it? Does the
student do revision, and what methods do they
use? Do students do assignments on their own
or sharing it with others, and why? What is
the student's perception towards teaching methods
used?

Computer Programming THE VALUABLE SKILLSET
Computer programming is a subject that involved
skill in designing algorithm, writing program,
understanding the syntax as well as the logic of
the program.

Students interest in the subject is also
important. Learning programming will be boring
and difficult if they are not interested in the
subject. The way the teachers conduct the class
also can be a factor that makes student not
interested with the subject. Different students
have different types of motivation. Some students
motivated to learn programming because of their
interest while the others were motivated by their
parents or friends.

Responsibility
Teachers play a prominent role in delivering the
knowledge efficiently to the student. Teachers
are responsible to explain to the students
clearly and suggest to them the solution for
their problems.
