This leads to deficiencies in some scientific aspects of programming, which are considered one of the most important demands of development and the needs of the present era that the learners must be adequately trained on. This experiment was applied to the community of 100 learners, by providing computerlessons for programming in the language of Visual Basic, in its sixth version, and sending those lessons through the educational group assigned to them through the simplest social media sites so that answers clarify the role of this learning from the sample consisting of 40 participants.
