Proposta de sequência didática para introdução da computação e do pensamento computacional no ensino fundamental II baseada nas metáforas de perspectivas culturais

Abstract

Computational Thinking (CT) skills have become essential considering that digital technologies are becoming more prevalent in different fields of study and work performed by society. Thus, this work has the ultimate goal of creating a didactic sequence to support educators in teaching Computer Scienceto middle school students and fomenting the development of their CT skills. To that end, we considered CT as a culture to classify CT teaching resources in the light of the Cultural Viewpoint Metaphors. Then, we used the classification as a basis to select teaching resources to be applied in an Action-Research. Finally,we created a didactic sequence for educators interested in introducing computer science and CT to middle school students.
