Abstract
The purpose of this study is to reveal the views of fourth-grade primary school students about mobile programming education. Data were collected by using interviews, metaphor and student drawings under the qualitative research method. Amongst the 135 students who participated in the mobile programming education, 24 fourth-grade primary school students, who were selected via the purposeful sampling method, took part in the study. Content analysis was used to analyse the data collected through the semi-structured interview form. The drawings of the students which reflected what the mobile programming education meant for them were evaluated through document analysis. As a result, it can be said that mobile programming education contributes positively to students' mobile programming, scientific and creative thinking skills and social skills. It is recommended to use MIT App Inventor in programming education for primary school students.
