AB - Korea government declared 2014 year as the first year of profound Software Education. Since 2015, Software Education will be held in schools with the beginning with middle school as a regular and independent subject. Software Education is learner-centered teaching and learning methods for enhancing the creativity and problem solving skills through computer programming based on computational thinking. However, in terms of the existing computer programming research, the lack of the considering the gender issue, which is one of the learner’s characteristics, is often exposed in the computer programming education field. For this reason, MadewithCode developed by Google is a programming language designed to increase participation by women is more related to the software field. In this study, we have examined what MadewithCode is in terms of its attributes and features, once we have applied this programming language to both forth and sixth grade in elementary school, then we conducted surveys and analyzed the satisfaction appeared to girl through t-test statistic method. As a result, female students showed higher results than boys in the affective domain of interest. In a comparative study between the grade, forth grade female students showed high results in cognitive, affective and behavioral areas than sixth grade girls. In addition, the results indicated that the students got a keen interesting the feasibility as a school subject about computer programming language. Finally, on the basis of the results presented in this study, the direction for the future software education of Korea was suggested.
