Coding and educational robotics and their relationship with computational and creative thinking. A compressive review

New technological tools, technology-based services and support are being introduced into our daily lives faster than ever. Among these technological advances robotic technology has increased dramatically in recent years, the same as its inclusion in education. The purpose of the paper is offer a compressive review about computational and creative thinking definitions and its measurement, furthermore, its relationship with coding, educational robotics and the maker movement. The review is based in the most cited papers publish in the last 10 years, retrieved from google scholar and other prestigious databases. The review has showed that with the use of coding and robotics kits there is generally no correct way to solve a challenge, and computational and creative thinking are related to find efficient and good solution to problems. Not having a correct answer but multiple ways of addressing a problem is an experience that many teachers are not familiar with. That is why more scientific research is needed in this regard, in terms of successful interventions that show evidence and good practices that serve as training and guides teachers.
