Abstract
A pesar de que países de todo el mundo están modificando su plan de estudios nacional para incluir habilidades de pensamiento computacional, no hay un acuerdo en la definición de esta capacidad. Esto se debe en parte a la gran cantidad de definiciones propuestas por la comunidad académica. De hecho, hay múltiples ejemplos en escenarios educativos en los que la programación e incluso la robótica se consideran sinónimos del pensamiento computacional. Este artículo presenta un análisis de la red de texto de las principales definiciones de esta habilidad que se han encontrado en la literatura, con el objetivo de ofrecer información sobre las características comunes que comparten y sobre su relación con la programación informática. Como resultado, se propone una nueva definición de pensamiento computacional que emerge de los datos analizados. Even though countries from all over the world are modifying their national educational curriculum in order to include computational thinking skills, there is not an agreement in the definition of this ability. This is partly caused by the myriad of definitions that has been proposed by the scholar community. In fact, there are multiple examples in educational scenarios in which coding and even robotics are considered as synonymous of computational thinking. This paper presents a text network analysis of the main definitions of this skill that have been found in the literature, aiming to offer insights on the common characteristics they share and on their relationship with computer programming. As a result, a new definition of computational thinking is proposed, which emerge from the analyzed data.
