Abstract: Computational Thinking (CT), has been a popular subject of study in recent years for many researchers, as it has been described as an important skill for every citizen in the digital age. Several studies in the international literature, are trying to clarify from one hand the term CT and on the other hand to investigate how CT can be taught and integrated into compulsory curricula. The subject of this research work is the study of the greek literature on CT during the last decade. The analysis of the relevant research papers that have been retrieved and studied shows a limited bibliography which mainly consists of teaching proposals that try to cultivate CT in the respective student population as well as from bibliographic studies of the term.

Key words: computational thinking, literature review
