Specification of a Managing Agent of Emergent Serious Games for a Smart Classroom

Abstract

This article presents the specification of a Managing Agent (AJSE) of Emergent Serious Games for a smart classroom (SaCI). The AJSE is a manager of Emergent Serious Games (JSE), which seeks to agree the JSEs with the subject that is developed in the SaCI, with the aim of motivating the acquisition of knowledge and skills in students during their learning processes. The introduction of JSE in SaCI allows to incorporate a new type of teaching resource in the learning dynamic, which allows enriching with new strategies the learning process. However, the AJSE requires certain characteristics that will be presented in the paper, so that it can interact with the other SaCI agents, such as its ability detecting information from the environment, determining the JSE suitable at a given moment in SaCI, and making emerge the appropriate behaviors in the JSEs, among other things, in order to reach the learning objectives that are aspired to achieve at any given time in SaCI.
