Barriers and Potential Solutions to Women in Studying Computer Programming in Saudi Arabia: A Discussion Pape

The purpose of this study is to explore the attitudes of Saudi Arabian female
students toward mobile learning approaches pertaining to their learning
experiences. Our methodology involved two groups–one that was subjected
to a traditional teaching approach and the other (treatment group) that was
subjected to a teaching approach with an intervention involving the ViLLE
visualization tool during a semester in a programming class. We employed
the Mobile Learning for Computer Programming framework to evaluate the
perception of the use of mobile devices pertaining to the learning experience
of female programming students in Saudi Arabia. Overall, the treatment
group had positive attitudes toward mobile-based learning. This approach
can promote engagement in learning systems, enhance the learning
experience, improve the quality of learning, and help explain learner
behavior
