Abstract
The main objective of this research was to design, implement, and evaluate a curriculum model for technology and informatics centered on computational thinking for 10th and 11th grades at Ángela Restrepo Moreno Educational Institution, located in San Antonio de Prado, Medellín, Colombia. A mixed-methods approach was used, combining quantitative analysis of digital competencies with qualitative exploration of perceptions from 314 participants, including students, teachers, and parents. The results showed that, although 87.3% of students recognize the contribution of the technology area, the competencies developed do not fully meet the demands of Industry 5.0, and a significant percentage of teachers are unfamiliar with official curricular guidelines. The proposal was structured around four fundamental pillars, incorporating active methodologies that strengthen digital competencies, promote creativity and student autonomy, and provide a replicable model for similar educational contexts
