EpiTalk - A Platform fro Epiphyte Advisor Systems Dedicated to Both Individual and Collaborative Learning
نویسندگان
چکیده
In distance learning environments, advisors can start off again a stalled learning process. EpiTalk is a platform enabling to develop advisors for individual and collaborative learning. EpiTalk advisors rely on agents, organizations and hierarchical graphs. Hierarchical graphs describe advisors. At run-time, agents provide autonomy to each advisor’s components, while organizations link and co-ordinate agents. Since advisors are grafted onto existing arbitrary information systems, we say that they are epiphyte.
