Abstract

This article presents the framework of Computational Thinking and how it can be integrated into the classroom through the design and implementation of programming projects. It describes the need, purpose and main features of Computational Thinking. It describes with several examples how to develop the key elements of Computational Thinking using a programming language. The last section of the paper shows the content and outcomes of the course "Computational Thinking in School" taught as a MOOC (Massive Open Online Courses) in the platform Miríada X.
