Resumen
Computational thinking is a 21st-century skill and an emerging global issue. Despite the great benefits for the educational context, there is little knowledge about the projects being carried out in the European context. Therefore, itwas decided to re-conduct a systematic review of trends in projects addressingComputational Thinking at the pre-university level in Europe. The search wascarried out in the CORDIS and Erasmus+ databases and several inclusion, exclusion and quality criteria were applied. The main results show most projects fostercomputational thinking across STEM subjects. Moreover, institutions in Spain andItaly tend to be more involved. Also, the projects provide digital didactic material for teachers to work within the classroom to foster students’ computationalthinking development. Furthermore, they propose action plans and activities beincorporated into the curricula of any institution.
