| description | The Fourth Industrial Revolution has triggered an unprecedented lifestyle and thinking. Consequently, and to challenge this stage, people require new skills and competencies associated with the so-called Computational Thinking (CT). This article considers the incidence of Piaget's constructivist theory and Paper’s contributions as background to the proposal developed by Jeannette Wing on the (CT). It also reflects aspects related to CT, as an emerging concept whose definition shows lack of consensus. The CT related skills required in this century are also analyzed, as well as pedagogical approaches that demand changes related to the curriculum. Also, the training and teaching practice are analyzed in order to optimize the opportunities offered by technologies in the educational field. Finally, spaces and advances on the topic proposed in England, Spain, USA, Costa Rica, Ecuador and Argentina are described. |

La Cuarta Revolución Industrial ha desencadenado un inédito estilo de vivir y de pensar. Como consecuencia de ello y para desafiar este escenario, las personas requieren nuevas habilidades y competencias asociadas con el denominado pensamiento computacional (PC). El presente trabajo considera la incidencia de la teoría constructivista de Piaget y los aportes de Papert como antecedentes a la propuesta desarrollada por Jeannette Wing sobre el PC; se reflexiona también sobre aspectos relativos al PC, como un concepto emergente cuya definición muestra falta de consenso. Se analizan, asimismo, el perfil de las habilidades relacionadas con el PC requeridas en el presente siglo, los enfoques pedagógicos que demandan cambios relacionados con el currículo, así como la preparación y la práctica docente, a fin de optimizar las oportunidades ofrecidas por las tecnologías en el campo educativo. Finalmente, se describen espacios y avances sobre el tema propuestos en Inglaterra, España, EE.UU., Costa Rica, Ecuador y Argentina.
