Sciences et Technologies de l´Information et de la Communication pour l´Éducation et la Formation iFrimousse : Portails web éducatifs augmentés de terminaux mobiles

RESUME : Dans le cadre de dispositifs educatifs, et en particulier de portails web, l'apprenant et le tuteur peuvent etre deroutes devant la densite d'informations presentes, l'evolution des pratiques pedagogiques vers des supports mobiles et des difficultes d'interactions asynchrones. Notre problematique est d'augmenter les portails educatifs Web grâce a des agents animes et a des supports mobiles en vue d'y delocaliser des informations synthetiques adaptees a un acteur (apprenant ou tuteur) dans un certain contexte. Nous presentons une architecture epiphyte venant s'integrer dans un portail educatif deja existant. Nous illustrons ce travail a travers deux scenarios complementaires, l'un dedie a l'experimentation de la mobilite de l'agent sur une plateforme Moodle et le second a l'aide au tuteur via un systeme mobile, tel qu'un iPhone. MOTS CLES : Aide a l'utilisateur, supports mobiles, architecture epiphyte, portails Web augmentes, systeme multi-agents. ABSTRACT : In the context of educational devices, and in particular of Web portals, the learner and the tutor can be confused in front of the density of information, the evolution of the educational practices towards mobile supports and the difficulties of asynchronous interactions. Our problem is to increase the Web educational portals thanks to animated agents and to mobile supports to relocate synthetic information adapted to an actor (learner or tutor) in a certain context. We present an epiphyte architecture which overlaps on an already existing educational portal. We illustrate this work through two complementary scenarios, the one dedicated to the experiment of the mobility of the agent on a Moodle platform and the second in the help to the tutor via a mobile system, such as an iPhone. KEYWORDS : Help to the user, mobile supports, epiphyte architecture, increased Web portals, multi-agent system.
