    Abstract

    Learning to programming language is difficult. One solution is to use a digital game, which increases motivation of first-time learners. In this paper, we were executing programming learning with MincraftEdu of sandbox game and ComputerCraftEdu of expansion function. In addition, learning method to programming has illustration-based programming and text-based programming in ComputerCraftEdu. We compare the programming way of illustration programming and text programming. In this result, there was a significant difference towards the illustration-based programming throughout the comparison. In this paper, we present the results.
