Résumé

This paper presents a service-learning activity for a subject of the Degree in Computer Engineering, in which programming languages and paradigms are studied. The activity, of a voluntary nature, consists of designing and executing an exercise that allows promoting Computer Science among young people through the development of Computational Thinking, specifically among non-university students in primary and secondary stages. For primary, the exercises must be unplugged, that is, without computers and using any kind of tangible material. While for secondary the exercises have to be plugged in, that is, using an electronic device and they must propose challenges that participants have to overcome using programming concepts. The execution of the exercises is carried out during the celebration of the Computational Thinking Olympiad, an event that is organized annually at the Escuela Superior de Ingeniería y Tecnología of Universidad de La Laguna. In addition, the proposed exercises are presented to classmates in a symposium organized for this purpose at the Computer Engineering Student Congress of the institution. The total number of students who carried out the activity during this academic year obtained a grade of more than five points of ten. Giving a general assessment to it of 4,33 out of 5,0.
