Resumo

Este estudo traz evidências sobre fatores que facilitam o desenvolvimento do pensamento computacional (PC) entre estudantes costa-riquense do ensino fundamental, incluindo o aporte da proposta de LIE++ que aborda conhecimentos e práticas do PC mediante projetos de programação e computação física. Foi utilizado um desenho quase-experimental para comparar um grupo de estudantes de LIE++ com um grupo de estudantes de outra proposta chamada LIE-Guías, que enfatiza aprendizagem com tecnologias digitais. No estudo, participaram 14.795 estudantes, que responderam voluntariamente a um teste online que foi constituído e validado para estimar as pontuações alcançadas em PC. Os resultados mostraram que os estudantes participantes de LIE++ obtiveram melhores pontuações em comparação com o grupo de LIE-Guías e, mediante um modelo de regressão multinível, foram identificadas quais as variáveis pessoais e sociais dos estudantes, e da própria execução da proposta, incidem no favorecimento dessas aprendizagens. Esta pesquisa é uma primeira aproximação ao tema nesse contexto, que se refere à importância de proporcionar oportunidades educativas voltadas a conhecimentos e habilidades mais avançadas da computação, assim como à relevância de seguir desenvolvendo ferramentas e metodologias que ajudem a gerar evidências sobre o PC no âmbito educacional e, assim, melhorar as intervenções educativas.
