Abstract
The Program “Developing Computational Thinking” is an initiative of the Universidad La Salle, which seeks to bring computing to school as a tool to strengthen other areas of study such as mathematics. In this article we present the experience of a workshop, in which students learn a different way of solving geometry problems by using the Sphero robot. As a first result we have seen an approach not only to Computing but to the resolution of problems in Geometry in a ludic and interactive way, through the exploration and the resolution of problems making use of the fundamentals of computational thinking.
