Virtual Reality (VR) has stood out as an innovative tool in education, transforming the waystudents learn and teachers teach. The integration of VR devices, such as glasses andsimulators, allows the creation of immersive environments, in which students can explorecomplex concepts in a practical and engaging way. Furthermore, VR offers opportunities fornew teaching paradigms, such as virtual visits to museums, simulations of scientificexperiments, and trips to historic places. This approach stimulates students' curiosity,creativity and engagement, making the learning process more dynamic and meaningful.Recent data indicates that schools and educational institutions are increasingly adopting VRas part of their pedagogical strategies, recognizing its potential for educational innovation.This work aims to demonstrate how Virtual Reality in Education is based on a promisingarea, capable of revolutionizing the way educators and students interact with knowledge.
