  • Abstract
    This paper presents the evaluation of a Discrete Event Simulation model constructed to assist a teacher in the explanation of high school class content. The model was built using the free version of the Arena software after that teacher receives basic training for its use. The model was feasible, both financially and from the results presented. The results showed that the use of the simulation model can provide an increase in learning for students with more difficulty.
