Abstract
This study developed teaching-learning materials for mathematics and coding convergence classes using Python, focusing on 'Prime Factorization' of seventh graders. After applying the teaching methods and contents to the students, they analyzed whether the learners achieved their learning goals. The results were used to modify and supplement teaching and learning materials. Affective domain of learners were also analyzed. The results are that the teaching methods and contents of the developed teaching-learning materials were generally appropriate for learners. The learners understood most of the lessons according to the set teaching methods of all classes. And learners have mostly reached their learning goals. In addition, as a result of analyzing the definition characteristics of learners through follow-up interviews, the interest in mathematics and programming has improved. The developed teaching and learning materials of this study are well consisted mostly of the teaching methods and the contents of the classes, and are organized so that learners can reach most of the learning goals. It also brought positive changes to the affective domain of mathematics and coding, demonstrating the potential for useful use in school.
