Applying Adaptive Social Mobile Agent to Facilitate Learning
Abstract
In this paper, we present our idea about applying an adaptive social mobile agent in a game based scenario to support foreign language vocabulary learning. We hypothesize that through implementing an adaptive agent, we may mitigate the problem of a loss in child engagement or may also prolong the time a child takes to lose interest. We then present details on architecture and implementation of an adaptive social mobile agent.
