The evolution of the fourth industrial revolution has accelerated technology and society today, this in turn generates a series of challenges and projections from education and science, with the aim of ensuring that children and young people acquire various skills that help them meet the challenges of the working world, thus, the inclusion of Computational Thinking in educational institutions can become a key tool to achieve this goal. Computational Thinking is an approach that allows us to decompose complex problems into smaller ones and find optimal solutions, applying the principles of computer programming, at the same time it is a fundamental skill in the globalized world, since it allows us to analyze information, design processes and make decisions more effectively. This article reflects on the connection between the incorporation of Computational Thinking in various curricula around the world and how this situation can enhance some competencies, among which we have problem solving, creativity, critical thinking, metacognition and teamwork. In order to carry out this essay type article, a well-founded search of information from various authors and internationally recognized journals was carried out. This article concludes that the implementation of Computational Thinking in the educational curriculum enhances various competencies that are indispensable in today's globalized world of the 21st century.
