About this book

Teaching and learning paradigms have attracted increased attention especially in the last decade. Immense developments of different ICT technologies and services have paved the way for alternative but effective approaches in educational processes.

Many concepts of the agent technology, such as intelligence, autonomy and cooperation, have had a direct positive impact on many of the requests imposed on modern e-learning systems and educational processes.

This book presents the state-of-the-art of e-learning and tutoring systems and discusses their capabilities and benefits that stem from integrating software agents.

We hope that the presented work will be of a great use to our colleagues and researchers interested in the e-learning and agent technology.

 

 

Reviews

From the reviews:

“The primary focus of this book illustrates the best examples of current research on learning environments that utilize software agents to enhance the learning experience. … I would recommend this book for educational practitioners working with technology and those looking to see what is occurring at the cutting edge of the teaching/technology environment.” (S. M. Godwin, Computing Reviews, April, 2014)
