Abstract
The interest in the Fourth Industrial Revolution along with the development of ICT makes the software get the attention of the world. This phenomenon naturally leads to the concern for software education. Learning software coding is not easy for students whose major is in humanities or social sciences. This paper is a study of how cognition on software education affects to education of computational thinking. For research method, moderator variables were adopted on the proposed research model to prove that positive cognition can derive good influence on improvement of computational thinking. To find out moderator variables of the research model, we have conducted the questionnaire over three years for total of 928 students who took the software coding courses. As the result of the study, we proved that the positive cognition on software education can make the better improvement of computational thinking within proper moderator variables.
