ABSTRACT Computational thinking goes beyond the idea of programming a computer and is centered around the idea of how humans, not computers, think. Considering the need to integrate this theme into education, we sought to promote the development of computational thinking in the practice of professional and technological education teachers. For this, application-research was used as a research method, and an online course was carried out with the participation of five teachers working in the integrated high school of the Federal Institute of Bahia and monitoring by a pedagogue. For data analysis, qualitative content analysis was used on the vocabulary, the field diary and the descriptive memorials. The results show pedagogical paths for the integration of computational thinking by teachers.
