At the National University of Chimborazo there is research related to the use of software for teaching mathematics learning, but learning physics is scarce. Therefore, this research aimed to identify the impact of the use of free software for learning crocodile Electricity, the hypothesis was: “With the use of free software successfully improves learning crocodile electricity”. According to the characteristics of study is a viable and feasible, same research that relies on a correlational research, with a quasi-experimental design; a diagnosis developed students to know the degree of knowledge related to electricity. The study population were 70 students of the School of Sciences; the type of sampling is not probabilistic intentional considered students of the 8th semester. As a strategy for a structured data collection before and after application of the software, obtaining satisfactory results questionnaire it was applied. The findings obtained in this investigation served to make clear the importance of today use software for the improvement of education.
