Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) In recent years, programming beginners have begun to use visual programming languages such as Scratch. After that, they use text-based programming languages such as C and Java. But there are high walls between visual and text-based languages. It is important to establish a seamless transition from visual to text-based languages. In this study, we clarify the difference in learning process between visual language and text-based language by measuring brain waves. Specifically, we will conduct experiments to solve problems with different difficulty levels for learning visual and text-based languages. The brain waves at that time are measured, and we evaluate the value of beta/alpha. As a result, the value of beta/alpha when solving difficult problems increased in the text-based language, but not in the visual language. This suggests that learners may be thinking differently in the learning process of visual and text-based languages.
