      El objetivo del artículo es presentar el conocimiento generadoal realizar una evaluación de habilidades específicas del pensamiento computacional del 2016 al 2019. Lo anterior para determinar el estado inicial de los estudiantes de nuevo ingreso de la carrera de tecnologías de la información en la Universidad Tecnológica de Puebla –México y favorecer el desempeño académico en el curso Metodología de la programación en educación superior. Por medio de la selección de cinco reactivos en correspondencia a cinco habilidades del pensamiento computacional (abstracción, generalización, descomposición, diseño algorítmico y evaluación) se establece una relación con los contenidos temáticos del curso, por lo anterior, se ha podido determinar cuales serían las fortalezas y debilidades de los estudiantes con el objetivo de apoyar su desempeño académico. Dos resultados destacan del trabajo realizado. Primero, el impacto favorable en los estudiantes para la adquisición de las competencias a través de encuestas solicitadas durante cada intervención. Segundo, a partir de la tercera intervención, obtener una predicción de la retención de matrícula al menos para el primer cuatrimestre. Tomando como base el diseño experimental realizado en México, también se comenta la propuesta de diseño para la Universidad Tecnológica de Chile.

      The objective of the article is to present the knowledge generated by carrying out an evaluation of specific computational thinking skills from 2016 to 2019. The aforementioned to determine the initial status of new students to the information technology career at the Universidad Tecnológica de Puebla -Mexico and promote academic performance in the Programming Methodology course in higher education. Through the selection of five items corresponding to five computational thinking skills (abstraction, generalization, decomposition, algorithmic design and evaluation) a relationship is established with the thematic contents of the course; therefore, it has been possible to determine what the strengths and weaknesses of students in order to support their academic performance. Two results stand out from the work done. First, the favorable impact on students for the acquisition of skills through surveys requested during each intervention. Second, from the third intervention, obtain a prediction of enrollment retention for at least the first four-month period. Based on the experimental design carried out in Mexico, the design proposal for the Technological University of Chile is also discussed.
