Computing at School, also known as Computational Thinking (CT), has been placing the focus of educational innovation as a set of troubleshooting skills. Unfortunately, there is not a consensus if the teaching methodology and the available materials attendthe expectations of the lecturers. To prove the impact that CT training has in primary school, we attempted to evaluate Spanish students with a Quasi-Experimental approach to prove if the activities are effective for students who live in areas where there are no electronic devices, Internet or even electrical power can be also benefited. The results show statistically significant improvement. In this way, we are able to reinforce the claim that CS unplugged is an effective approach for students who live in unprivileged areas.
