Understanding the Challenges Students Face in Non-English Programming Environments Due to the Programming Language Transition: A Case Study of Keywords in the Chinese Version of Scratch

要旨

As the importance of computer science (CS) education gains global recognition, the learner population is expanding to include all manner of backgrounds. However, students from non-English backgrounds face challenges in understanding instructional material, technical communication, and reading and writing code, which further impacts their learning outcomes. These issues have attracted attention in the fields of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), programming languages, and computer education, which have demonstrated that using programming tools in mother tongues or local languages enhances learners' ability to grasp computing concepts. Consequently, extensive efforts have been dedicated to translating English technical terms across various languages and even developing non-English-based programming languages.
