Abstract
This study analyzed the effect of an unplugged educational program which focuses on the algorithm execution time analysis on enhancing the computational thinking of the third grade students. An unplugged educational program was developed by following the procedures of the ADDIE model based on the result of the demand analysis conducted with 70 incumbent elementary school teachers and 120 third grade students. The developed program was applied to 24 third grade students for 36 classes in six days and a comparison was made through pre-post comparison tests with 24 students who were taught with a board game program for the same period of time. As a result, the unplugged education program which focuses on the algorithm execution time analysis is deemed to have positive effect on the computational thinking of the third grade students.
