To solve a given problem, it is necessary to extract the essence of the problem and give a solution constructed logically on the basis of it. The process of solving a given problem autonomously and logically can be simulated by the work of constructing flowcharts logically for it. This leads us to the idea that the self-study training of constructing flowcharts can foster logical thinking abilities effectively by using the Kit-build method that can judge correct or not immediately. The purpose of this paper is to propose a system of effectively training logical thinking abilities by constructing flowcharts on the basis of the Kit-Build method. Furthermore, the proposed system was implemented on an android tablet, and by reporting the experimental results and questionnaires using the implemented system, it was shown that the proposed system can effectively foster logical thinking abilities including composition abilities.
