Programming is emphasized in information(computer science) education course domestically and in foreign countries, and novices are given ample opportunities to experience programming. Programming error is a critical factor which makes it difficult to learn programming for novices. However, if they are given appropriate feedback, it can have positive influence on programming learning. In this paper, we design programming learning supporting system for novice through error feedback and provide some implementations for EPL 'Dolittle'. This system has four features as highlighting, guiding messages, object tree, and step-execution.

Programming education needs learning which is adjusted individual learners' level of their learning abilities. Recommendation system is one way of implementing personalized service. In this research, we propose recommendation method which learning items are recommended for individual learners' learning in web-based programming education environment by. Our proposed system for leveled programming education provides appropriate programming problems for a certain learner in his learning level and learning scope employing collaborative filtering method using learners' profile of their level and correlation profile between learning topics. As a result, it resolves a problem that providing appropriate programming problems in learner's level, and we get a result that improving leaner's programming ability. Furthermore, when we compared our proposed method and original collaborative filtering method, our proposed method provides the ways to solve the scalability which is one of the limitations in recommendation systems by improving recommendation performance and reducing analysis time.

The purpose of the study is to identify the influence of learning participation on learning outcomes in programming courses. Based on the literature review, learning participation is composed of three sub components: participation in preview, class, and review. Learning outcomes are categorized by academic achievement, learning satisfaction, and learning motivation. A survey was conducted with 267 students enrolled in programming courses from three IT departments at Myongji College. Findings revealed that participation in review and participation in class predicted all sub components of learning outcomes. Participation in review was found to have a greater effect on learners' achievement and participation in class was found to have a greater impact on learning satisfaction and motivation. However, the results showed that participation in class was not an influential factor for learning outcomes. Implications for enhancing learning participation and suggestions for future research are also discussed.

The change of programming language learning experience on learning motivation was analyzed. Learning a programming language is generally evaluated as a difficult process even for majors. Measuring psychological changes related to programming learning at this point in expanding to non-majors is necessary for learner analysis. The overall learner attitude change was investigated by measuring achievement goals, academic interest, academic self-efficacy, cognitive involvement, and academic self-regulation, which are motivation-related factors. All factors related to learning attitude showed a decrease in the post-test results. This result is interpreted that the difficulty of the learning process decreased the motivation to learn programming. It was found that the greater the difficulty perceived by the learner, the greater the decrease in the motivation to learn. Based on the results of this study, it has implications that a learning environment and learning process that can give feedback and a situation that can reduce the level of learning difficulty felt by learners should be systematically given.
