%X Currently, teachers are confronted with several technological tools which can help them on daily teaching activities, and besides the vast majority of software can be considered educational. But what are the criteria for particular software to be considered educational? How can the use of software involve students in their learning? In this article, we present a survey of known educational software, aiming to analyze its applicability in the educational process in science education, specifically in Chemistry. The software was developed by teachers who use themes from everyday life and can be applied to high school students. Along with the research results, we will emphasize the concern in the careful choice of software, pointing it as a great pedagogical ally in the art of involving the learner in the process of teaching and learning.
