The reusability of learning material is a very important feature to design learning environments for real-life learning. The reusability of learning material is based on three main features: modularity, discoverability, and interoperability. The object learning approach aims to provide these features. At the same time, several researchers on intelligent learning environments have proposed the use of artificial intelligence through architectures based on agent societies. Teaching systems based on multiagent architectures make it possible to support the development of more interactive and adaptable systems. We proposed an approach where learning objects are built based on agent architectures: the intelligent learning object (ILO). This chapter addresses the improvement of interoperability among learning objects in agent-based learning environments by integrating learning objects technology and the multiagent systems approach. It presents the ILO agent’s basic architecture and a case study.
O presente artigo descreve os estudos realizados
no projeto OBAA – Agente Baseado em Objeto de Apren-
dizagem. São apresentadas algumas definições de objetos
de aprendizagem, repositórios, televisão digital interativa
e multiagentes do sistema. Normas para construir objetos
de aprendizagem e programas de televisão digital foram
investigadas e analisadas, a fim de se especificar um novo
padrão multiplataforma sobre o qual é construído o conteú-
do que pode ser usado na web e televisão digital.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
