Abstract


This paper aims to present scenarios to be applied in higher education to the theme of production planning and control, addressing factors of the production system and indicators arising from this process and the application of virtual reality to support the process. The applied method combines the development of six scenarios for virtual reality application and the discussion about the impacts in indicators from the production planning and control, for example, inventory in the process, manufacturing lead-time, use of equipment, and punctual delivery attendance. Findings revealed that the teaching-learning process of production planning and control, when applied through scenarios, generates opportunities for students to learn the impact in the indicators. The virtual reality in this environment supports creating differentiated teaching-learning environments to generate the most significant knowledge for students which positively impacts the future in the world of work. In addition, it allows people involved in the teaching-learning processes of production engineering to apply the concepts presented in the sequencing process, lean about the impacts of decisions on production sequencing indicators and appreciate the support of virtual reality to generate an environment more cognitive for students.
