Abstract
This research analyzes the inclusion of the Pseint programming language in educational institutions in South America, as a language for the beginning of programming logic through instructions in Spanish. The institutions with a registered profile that are listed in the Sourceforge platform are analyzed, from the 9 countries that speak the Spanish language, although the language is used by a large number of teachers, they are not taken into account unless they maintain this registered profile. It is shown that the countries with more institutions adopting the language are Colombia at 25.73%, Argentina at 18.93%, and Peru at 17.48%, and the proximity of each country is analyzed to know its influence.
