Scratch based graphical programming online guide/exam system

Over the past couple of years, there has been an increase in interest in Computer Science due to various new innovations such as cryptocurrency, block chain and many more. As such, more and more students from different background are trying to pick up Computer Science. Some students may have no issue picking up programming while others may have difficulty and lose interest in programming. While it is sometimes the task of the instructor to keep students motivated and interested in learning, it cannot be helped if the contents and fundamentals of the topics are uninteresting to students. This project aims to find alternatives to teach programming while building interest in students so that they have the motivation to continue to learn programming. In this project, comparison of various block-based applications are performed to find the most suitable application for students who may or may not have prior programming background to learn programming. Various criteria such as user interface are used to determine whether the application is suitable for a beginner or not. The task assigned to each application would be the implementation of the bubble sort algorithm where each criterion would be observed. Possible future works of this project involves a larger sample size of applications and more tasks assigned to each application.Bachelor of Engineering (Computer Science
