Abstract

This study examined secondary school students’ self-efficacy perceptions related to block-based programming and computational thinking skills. 256 secondary school students comprised the study’s sample, and a correlational research design was utilised in the study. The study’s data collection tools consisted of a personal data form, Self-Efficacy Perception Related to Block-Based Programming scale, and Self-Efficacy Perception for Computational Thinking Skills scale. As a consequence of the research, researchers concluded that students’ self-efficacy perceptions related to block-based programming and computational thinking skills was moderate and that these two variables had a moderate and statistically significant positive relationship.
