This study examines the effect of the integration of computational thinking and multimedia pre-training principles on programming problem-solving skills in learning applications for matriculation students. Using a qualitative approach, interviews were conducted with five participants to identify the factors that influence low achievement in learning programming. Findings show that uninteresting learning materials and lack of interaction with lecturers are the main challenges. However, the use of computational thinking helps students in deciphering problems and organizing the solution process more systematically. These findings show the great potential of pre-training multimedia applications in increasing student engagement and achievement in learning programming.
