Aspectos do contexto sociocultural dos alunos estão presentes nas pesquisas para ensinar pensamento computacional?

Abstract

Research to promote Computational Thinking has become more and more frequent. However, these studies have been focusing only on technical and learning aspects, leaving sociocultural aspects of the students’ context aside. Therefore, a systematic mapping of the literature was carried out to investigate if and how the socio-cultural context of the students is being addressed in the initiatives to teach of Computational Thinking. From the selected articles it was found that the context of the students is being addressed, yet there is still a small number of studies that mention this condition. Thus we present an alternative to consider these aspects in initiatives to teach Computational Thinking.
