This paper seeks to identify the impact of learning programming and robotics in the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) educational approach. Studying these areas of knowledge is important to prepare students to face contemporary technological challenges. The approach analyzes how to establish and define the curricular content articulated in developing critical 21st-century skills within the teaching–learning process. A methodological strategy is proposed in the scientific field using the historical-descriptive method to carry out a literature review and a bibliometric study, evaluating scientific articles indexed in Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus from 2020 to 2024. Later, an evaluation is carried out using satisfaction surveys directed to eighth-grade students and teachers of the Unidad Educativa Fiscal Ciudad de Girón. These surveys address various aspects related to the context of learning programming and robotics from the STEM perspective. Consequently, the analytic–synthetic approach revealed that teaching programming and robotics would promote cognitive skills from adolescence, which is crucial for building solid foundations in STEM concepts. The positive impact on the motivation for change in students and teachers is highlighted by facilitating interaction with technologies and applying knowledge in practical projects in the educational process.
