Abstract
In this study, we presented a App Inventor utilization Software Education program in the process of education for Computational Thinking improvement of elementary school girls. In order to analyze the effects of education programs that have been developed, to elect the 3, 4, 5 grade girls of the sample of volunteers by volunteers form collection as an experimental population, was charged with the development programs, and It was analyzed educational effect using the results of the pre-post tests. The results of the analysis, App Inventor utilization Software Education program that was developed in this study it was found that help in Computational Thinking kidney of elementary school girls.
