Intelligent Agents are widly used in the literature in education environments connected to a specific subject matter. This paper investigate the use of IA to build LMS which are not connected to a specific subject matter. The aim is to use Intellegent Agents to simplify online teachers and tutors activities by eliminating repetitive and recurring tasks. The research is structured in two phases: firstly, the analysis of the messages exchanged between teachers, tutors and students in a online learning environment is provided. In the second phase, rules to implement a Chatbot are explored: this instrument provide support to the tutors and theachers, rather than aiming to replace their activities. The next step is to integrate Chat-bot with information produced by Intelligent Agents, in order to obtain a enactive model that takes advantage of the interactions between teachers, tutors and students.

Abstract
Intelligent Agents are widly used in the literature in education environments connected to a specific subject matter. This paper investigate the use of IA to build LMS which are not connected to a specific subject matter. The aim is to use Intellegent Agents to simplify online teachers and tutors activities by eliminating repetitive and recurring tasks. The research is structured in two phases: firstly, the analysis of the messages exchanged between teachers, tutors and students in a online learning environment is provided. In the second phase, rules to implement a Chatbot are explored: this instrument provide support to the tutors and theachers, rather than aiming to replace their activities. The next step is to integrate Chat-bot with information produced by Intelligent Agents, in order to obtain a enactive model that takes advantage of the interactions between teachers, tutors and students.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
