BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

Programming language is one of the most effective

and beneficial in the computer laboratory. In other words,
this is one of the best ways to study as ICT students. It
will allow the student to sharpen their problem solving
skills which involves conceptualizing problems at a
multitude of different levels. The Student will learn to take
the high-level problem and break it down into smaller
chunks that they can be solved via programming.

Based on a study , the majority of those lacking

programming skill language in the Philippines was over
50% of those who took basic entry-level programming
language. According to Philippine Software Industry of
the Philippines (PSIA), Gurango Software Corp. (GSC),
administered the first Proxor examinations in the
Philippines from October 2015 to September 2016.

Programming language was the majority issue to

the computer laboratory; being Programming language
became one of core subjects in Senior High School
especially for ICT students. Besides, it will help them to
better understand the digital world and towards coding
can make it easier to find a job in the future. Along with
the widespread enthusiasm and interest in coding, there
is an urgent need to quickly reflect on how they can better
support the student in taking their first coding steps.

The research aims to find help for individual

students while also identifying benefits on programming
language towards community.

STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

The major goal of this research is to identify the

impact and benefits of the student learning a
programming language. In addition to how ICT students
will benefit developing computer laboratories. The
following questions must addressed :
● What are the benefits of learning
Programming language towards computer
laboratory performance of ICT students?
 ● What are the help that programming
languages provide when developing a
program?
● How do students perform in a computer
laboratory if they are literate in the
programming language?

Figure 1. Conceptual framework

Figure 1 shows the benefits of learning on a student's

performance and one of them is Improving problem-
solving skills. These improving problem solving skills also
help to develop more skills in a person. One of ICT
student’s major benefits is to gain more knowledge over
coding and programming. Individual students have to
gain knowledge over coding , improving problem solving
is to meet their expectation to solve a problem such as
decode , fixing errors and so on. This has a positive
impact on students to improve their ability to solve any
problem related to the computer laboratory.

Under improving problem solving skills, there is creativity.

Creativity is one of the more developed skills that
students need. In ICT student’s this is one of their
benefits , In sense creativity enables them to formulate
their thoughts and ideas in their own way and own style.
At the same time , it is a quality that future students of
ICT should improve to sustain the developing creativity.
Developing creativity is important , this way to use their
technical skills and their creative thinking.

At the bottom of the concept map, you will see the critical
thinking. We , the researcher , have to include this one on
the concept map because being a programmer this will
benefit the students to face the question or problem.
Meaning when faced with a question or problem , you
spend time analyzing it and considering a range of
possible approaches to it before acting or making a
decision. Critical thinking on programming language will
benefitICT students , they spend time to analyze the
errors , and fixing things.
