IntroductionThe operating systems course is part of the classical curriculum of undergraduates in softwareand computer engineering. The content is well established from decades of iterative refine-ment and covers topics such as task management, system calls, synchronization, scheduling,memory management, and file system structure.1, 2 There are usually practical activities,or laboratory assignments, that complement the lectures. One approach to these activitiesconsists in using simulators.3–5 A simulator can help visualize the execution of classicalalgorithms, step-by-step. However, subsystems interaction is not covered from these ac-tivities, such that the global perspective is missing. The other common approach involvesprogramming a small scale

intuitive.According to Moreno, “The importance of feedback in promoting learning is inarguable butadditional research is needed to determine the effects of structured guidance on other educationalareas, methods, and student populations.”15 One way to better understand the effect of simulatedactivities on students’ learning is to expand the research to uncommon educational areas suchlearning technical concepts related to information technology (IT). Even though for severaldecades researchers have explored the use of simulation to augment the laboratory experiences inthe areas of surgery, physics, chemistry, biology, math, and dental education, there is nosignificant study that measures the effect of students’ learning of IT matters using simulationsoftware
