Abstract:

When learners study their second or third programming language, they have to learn its basic concepts and its grammar at the same time in a short period. This is a heavy burden for them. We adopt Blockly, a library for constructing a blocktype programming environment for beginners, and try to build a programming learning environment for languages other than procedural ones by using Blockly’s dynamic transformation behavior of blocks.
