Abstract

Current distance education systems try to mitigate the difficulties encountered by learners when they try to follow a distance course. The use of emotional animated agents in such environments as a tutoring paradigm can be benefic and increase the learners' motivation. This paper discusses the premises under which emotional agents can be pedagogically effective as tutors in a collaborative learning environment. This work highlights a framework for creating believable synthetic agents.
