Abstract

  This study is a quasi-experimental research using a two-group pretest-posttest design. The objective was to examine the knowledge and skills in computer programming among students enrolled in the Bachelor of Business Administration program, majoring in Business Computer. Additionally, the study aimed to investigate the students' satisfaction with computer programming. The participants were 34 second-year students from the Bachelor of Business Administration in Business Computer program at an educational institution., each consisting of 17 students. Data were collected using a knowledge assessment form with a reliability coefficient of 0.86, and an evaluation form whose content validity was verified by the researcher, with a content validity index ranging from 0.67 to 1.00 and a reliability coefficient of 0.77, respectively. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Chi-square test, and independent t-test.       

The results revealed that after the experiment, the experimental group had a significantly lower mean knowledge score (Mean = 42.35, SD + 10.16) than the control group (Mean = 48.94, + 6.39), with statistical significance at the 0.05 level (p = .03). However, the experimental group had a significantly higher mean programming skill score (Mean = 67.82, + 5.16) compared to the control group (Mean = 48.64, SD + 6.37), with statistical significance at the 0.05 level (p < .001)
