Resumen

Mi Superpoder es la Programación is a web tool designed to teach programming to children and young people. It focuses on developing logical thinking through interactive exercises that cover computer parts recognition, sequences, patterns, and flowcharts. The tool was developed to address the educational needs identified in the social project of the same name, where modern technologies and a serverless-based architecture were used to create an accessible and effective solution for teaching programming. Initial results indicate that students found the tool useful and demonstrated improvements in their understanding of computational logic. This analysis is framed within the global challenge of teaching programming to children and youth, demonstrating the potential of gamified tools across diverse educational contexts. Future plans include expanding the tool to incorporate more modules, allowing customization by teachers, and conducting broader evaluations in different educational environments.
