Résumé

Due to the rising interest in Computer Science (CS) in primary school, block-based programming languages have gained much significance. Within this article, we provide a first insight of our research into the identification of help needs of primary school children, when they are performing Scratch exercises. A first-in-class distance calculation method has been defined that takes into account the block-based programming languages idiosyncrasy.
