The present research has its nature of study classified as theoretical and has as the main objective the understanding of the exposed subject, being classified regarding its objectives as descriptive and also qualitative. The methodology made it possible to better understand the current technologies most used in the selected courses, being demonstrated that these can be adapted and used at different intensities in the different college courses, as well raising the discussion for the production of new studies in relation to the subject, wich is of extreme importance for education and for society as itself.
