Development of Algorithm Skills in Preschool Children

The aim of the present study is to present a technique to develop algorithm skills in preschool children. We determined and described a structure of algorithm skills in preschool children. The structure of algorithm skills included four major components: procedural, personal, regulatory, and communicative. The conditions to develop algorithm skills in preschool children involved game playing according to certain rules, organizing gaming activities according to algorithms provided by a preschool teacher, and creating developmental subject-based environment.
