Descrição

The changes introduced by the Bologna process in the educational paradigm, moving from a lecturer centered paradigm to a learner centered paradigm, involves a more supported learning process based on learning outcomes and the adoption of new pedagogical methodologies. In this paper we present our strategy of integration of tutoring agents in learning environments, using the features of intelligent tutoring systems adapted to collaborative environments. The Domus Tutor agent is the face of the adaptive learning environment that integrates Learning Design, groupware and collaborative work technologies. The adaptation of the system to the learner profile is based on case-based reasoning methodology; witch is one of the major reasoning paradigms in artificial intelligence.
