Abstract
The recent software education in middle schools is focused on physical computing, unplugged learning and pilot training. However, they are struggling in many ways, including cost, inducement of interest, motivation, and concentration. Also, the lack of systematic classroom design could make negative effect to students' understanding of classes or academic performance. In this paper, we intend to study the method of algorithm education using Chatbot system, which will increase efficiency of software education, with less burdensome in terms of cost, and also could be able to used as an assist tool in various classes. In class scenarios that require the understanding of coding mechanisms such as function application, algorithm design, and program coding, students can learn by themselves through the Chatbot system, which has a positive effect on student learning.
