Python como primer lenguaje de programación textual en la Enseñanza Secundaria

Resumen

Con la reciente introducción de la Programación en el currículo preuniversitario, se abre una oportunidad para incluir conceptos fundamentales de las Ciencias de la Computación. Este artículo presenta el origen y evolución de Python, las principales características que lo configuran como un lenguaje idóneo, así como una revisión y clasificación de herramientas educativas disponibles en su ecosistema. Dichas herramientas abarcan un amplio y variado abanico de recursos; desde libros interactivos hasta librerías que facilitan la creación de elaborados artefactos software por parte de los alumnos. En este trabajo se presenta una propuesta multidisciplinar para utilizar el lenguaje de programación Python en todos los niveles de Secundaria.
