The designing and implementation of a problem based learning in collaborative virtual environments using MMOG Technology

Abstract

This paper proposed a interface-based Virtual Tutor Agent (VTA) being able in interaction to multi users in a Problem base learning process in Collaborative virtual environments using MMOG Technology (Massively multiplayer online Game). Here it has been explained concerning two main points associated with conceptual and technology. In the conceptual problem it has been explained a concept associated with Problem based learning, where a learning process has been presented in an interface context in collaborative virtual environments, while in the technology, explained concerning MMOG Technology, among other things the use of multi agent technology, which is focused on the use of Virtual Tutor Agent (VTA) and the applications of AIML (Artificial Intelligence Markup Language), as well as Lua programming language. As for the approach used is by using a simulation method. While the contribution of this Paper is a design and implementation of Problem based learning in collaborative virtual environments in the educational process.
