Abstract
This article is a contribution to the research on the implementation of virtual reality as a tool for teaching and learning processes, especially in the field of fundamental and professional education. For this purpose, virtual reality is analyzed as an alternative to ensure the quality of the educational process, which is particularly urgent given the current situation of physical distancing due to the pandemic. This research investigates already published works whose contributions can be considered adaptive, which have been developed and applied in fundamental and professional education environments, and which have successfully demonstrated effective results in the educational process. As a conclusion, the potential of virtual reality as an educational tool is clear for all to see, although it is not always the most appropriate, so its use must be carefully evaluated and defined.
