This article presents an overview of simulated education through computational tools.
In recent years, educational institutions have been working even harder in the application of virtual teaching and learning environments, which are available to different undergraduate and technical courses.
During the learning process, the student is invited to try out some forms of different subjects and learning contents.
The use of technologies gained a great deal of space in these institutions in order to allow students to experiment different theories in practical settings.
Simulators allow students to conduct hands-on experiments without the need for real environments, which consequently generates costs and also a planning effort.
This paper presents a study of the application of software simulators in different technological courses.
After the application of the simulators, the students were invited to answer a Quiz in order to understand the effectiveness of the use of the simulators in the learning of each one.
Results show that students considered the use of simulators to be advantageous and important, but it is still not enough to suppress the use of practical classes in real environments.
