, and career-relevant interest, one can conclude theelementary school years is a critical time to increase student engagement in a discipline such ascomputer science.Bringing computer science into the early grades can be a challenging task since very fewteachers who graduated from programs had an objective to build one’s capacity to engagecomputer science subjects. The literature has some manuscripts, e.g., [6] that discuss the codingskills of practicing teachers. After reviewing these manuscripts, it is apparent that most k-12teachers, especially elementary teachers, are novice programmers. Computer science educationliterature reports that novice programmers tend to use a trial-and-error approach when they aregiven the opportunity to develop a

Therefore, fostering math interest iscrucial for motivating individuals to pursue engineering careers and engage in engineeringlearning [9]. Moreover, interest plays a pivotal role in the development of a positive STEM self-concept [8]. When individuals have an interest in STEM, they are more likely to seek outinformation and opportunities to engage in STEM activities, further contributing to their self-concept [8].
