O ENSINO E A APRENDIZAGEM DO PENSAMENTO COMPUTACIONAL NA EDUCAÇÃO BÁSICA

Abstract

This work deals with the teaching and learning process of Computational Thinking in High School. Faced with this theme, we chose as a guiding question: how have the concepts of Computational Thinking been approached in High School and what are the needs/opportunities to approach the theme within the scope of Mathematics? With this issue, the objective is to contribute to the teaching and learning process of Computational Thinking, recognizing it as an essential competence in the school curriculum. A general overview of the subject was traced through the analysis of some teaching materials available to students, as well as through the analysis of the National Curricular Common Base. In addition, to achieve the proposed objective, we present a bibliographic review addressing scientific works relevant to the theme of teaching and learning Computational Thinking. Finally, we developed a proposal for a didactic sequence to approach concepts relevant to Computational Thinking through the mathematical content of Sequences and Progressions, aiming to support teaching practice in High School.
