Abstract

This paper presents a multiagent architecture that facilitates active learning in educational environments for dependents. The multiagent architecture incorporates agents that can be executed on mobile devices and that facilitate language learning in an ubiquitous way. Moreover, the agents are specifically designed to provide advanced interfaces for elderly and dependent people. The architecture has been tested in a real environment and the preliminary results obtained are presented within this paper.
