Abstract

In the contemporary social scenario, marked by technological advancements and predominantly digital interactions, programming logic skills have become crucial. However, many students face a lack of access to courses in this area, limiting their development in computational thinking, especially at the high school level. This work aims to report the authors' experience in conducting the extension course "Introduction to Programming Logic: training course for high school students," using VisualG. In this context, the course focuses on practice and problem-solving, promoting collaboration and confidence in applying the knowledge, with an emphasis on group learning dynamics. It is highlighted that encouraging similar initiatives is essential to maintain student interest and prepare them for the job market in Computing.
