Presentations and laboratory developed in LabVIEW using microsoft agent

Research in e-Learning, Micro Learning and all activities where ITC and multimedia are implied in the process of learning brought a significant debate on the utility of narration in the process. Far from intended to solve this discussion, this paper is about the use of animated agents in presentation integrated with LabVIEW with the benefit of Data Acquisition and Virtual Instrumentation for activities close to micro learning in workshops.
