In this paper, we designed a dynamic presentation of simple algorithms as a learning concept. The usual methods of learning algorithims have been to depend on text mode presentation. Contrary, this dynamic presentation of algorithms' flow is expected to enable the learners can more effectively grasp the algorithm pattern and easily understand its concept.
The study was carried out by selecting the Euclid's algorithm as an example under an authorware tool environment. The designed learning system includes four modules ; the outline of algorithms as the basic part, the transforming process between random input data and their outputs, the detail part of the algorithms selected by the learners, and the program coding for desired language.
It seems that the proposed dynamic presentation will contribute to concentrate learners' interest, and to improve both the formulation of algorithm concept and the ability of program coding.
