Abstract

One of the guiding principles of the Fourth Industrial Revolution is the need for lifelong learning. This determines the growing role of intelligent educational systems to provide the necessary learning resources and services to users at any time and any place. This article presents the modeling and development of an intelligent multi-agent learning environment for the secondary school, developed by a team of the DeLC laboratory at the University of Plovdiv “Paisii Hilendarski”, Bulgaria. The learners are placed at the focus of the environment by personal assistants supporting work with the environment.
